Post COVID activities

It's taken a long time to recover from COVID. No great illness just generally tired, with lingering aches and pains. 

The specialist yarns I ordered from the UK last November were lost by Royal Mail. A second set were dispatched to Jasper but they didn't arrive in time for Susie to bring them back to France with her. Jasper posted them and Royal Mail have lost them again. even though they were tracked delivery (they never made it beyond the Post Office). So now we have to wait 4 weeks before we can get compensation will only cover half the cost. Very frustrating, I think I will only use DPD or DHL from now on.

So a weave on the loom using the threads I have here left over from other projects. An iridescent voile on 12 shafts. It'll probably be a scarf. 


A short walk in the mountains (very free of snow at the moment with little precipitation and warm temperatures) to start stretching our legs and regain some fitness. A wander from the east spur of Tuc de Mensongère to the Col de la Serre du Cot (1546m), then along the ridge towards Pic de Soubirou but stopping a little short at just over 2000m.
