Because I can never finish one project before starting another (or two or three or five), I have decided to start making a blanket out of these square for the daughter of a friend of mine. It should match her room perfectly. Hopefully, I'll also finish her baby brother's blanket before his first birthday roles around.
This particular flower is a pain in the butt to make. And this particular square will not be going in the finished blanket, because there are way too many mistakes in it. Hopefully now that I've figured out the pattern, the rest won't take as long to make.
Got the pattern here.
Officers from GMP's Safer Transport Team were out in force last week focusing on speeding and driving offences.
In just one day (Wednesday 16 September) over 40 people were reported for speeding with the highest being 56mph in a 30mph zone.
Safety checks were also made as part of Project EDWARD (Every Day Without A Road Death) in an effort to improve road safety in Greater Manchester.
Officers also seized 5 vehicles (3 for no insurance, 1 for no licence and 1 for no MOT) and processed traffic offence reports including:
14 for using a mobile phone whilst driving
25 for not wearing a seatbelt
10 for issues with their number plate
5 for defective tyres
9 for illegal window tints
Chief Inspector Gareth Firth from GMP's Safer Transport Team said: “Sadly we have seen a number of deaths on our roads which is why national campaigns such as Project EDWARD are so important. Speeding has been a factor within these fatalities however we have also seen them happen due to careless driving; and life-threatening injuries which could have been prevented had seatbelts been worn correctly.
"This is just a fraction of drivers that have been stopped for offences in one day and sadly the number of vehicles we stopped was far higher than we had anticipated.
"I would urge anyone travelling in a car to make sure they are making the necessary checks to ensure their car is roadworthy, they are wearing their seatbelts correctly and they are keeping their full attention on the road without any distractions such as mobile phones.
"This campaign has been supported by traffic officers and colleagues from across the force as well as our external partners however members of the public also play a vital role in keeping our roads safe. If you've witnessed an offence on the roads then please report it to us via the dedicated link on our website - www.gmp.police.uk/ro/report/rti/rti-b/report-a-road-traff.... Alternatively you can report things anonymously to CrimeStoppers on 0800 555 111. Always dial 999 in an emergency."
Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime, Bev Hughes said: “I am pleased to be supporting Project EDWARD again this year - in a bid to reduce deaths and serious injury on Greater Manchester’s roads. More than 60 families lost a loved one on our roads alone last year – with a further 600 people suffering serious and often life-changing injuries. That’s more than 600 families affected and their lives changed forever.
“Collisions are often the result of speeding or being distracted at the wheel - even a moment’s lapse of attention can cause an accident. So please stay alert, watch what’s happening and think ahead. Lives can be wrecked in an instant and the consequences last a lifetime.”
GMFRS’ Head of Prevention, Area Manager Paul Duggan, said: “Sadly, our firefighters are called to hundreds of serious road traffic collisions every year and all too often witness people suffering life-changing injuries, or worse.
“Some people may not realise but we actually rescue more casualties from road traffic collisions than we do from fires - so we are keen to work with our partners at every opportunity and support campaigns such as Project EDWARD in a bid to keep people safe on our roads."
You should call 101, the national non-emergency number, to report crime and other concerns that do not require an emergency response.
Always call 999 in an emergency, such as when a crime is in progress, violence is being used or threatened or where there is danger to life.
You can also call anonymously with information about crime to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Crimestoppers is an independent charity who will not want your name, just your information. Your call will not be traced or recorded and you do not have to go to court or give a statement.
You can access many of our services online at www.gmp.police.uk
Sometimes you don't know how much you might miss something until it's gone. Take a dishwasher, for example. Something broke inside of ours. Repairmen came, parts were ordered, and it was fixed. But the dishes still weren't getting clean. Repairmen came back, an unrelated problem was fixed, and after washing dishes by hand for most of November it is now working like new.
For the record, this may be the most lame photo I've taken so far on the 365 project, but it was 15 minutes before midnight so cut me some slack.
Although it's turned into a rather lovely evening, the story of today is all about rain.
I nipped out to the Post Office in the morning and as I only had my woollen coat with me elected to use a brolly instead.
This is my view on the way back to work!

My friend, Lucy, is visiting this morning, while her partner teaches a class up the coast. We walked to the beach for a bit of fresh air and spotted these kite surfers. We didn't stay out for long - it was windy and my cold has moved to my chest. So the fresh air was a good idea but being out too long was not.

An utterly miserable, pissing it down day in South London. Still, walking across this footbridge I couldn't ignore this scene :)

Used car special, low mileage, must see!
Went to the auto wrecker for some parts, came across these two cars that had been crushed and left sitting in the yard.
I'm working on a collaborative caste layout. This picture shows the current status of my part. It's still WIP.
A shot of my latest project after a complete restoration!
The radio is a 1946 Sonora RCU-208 AM Radio that was purchased by my grandparents (hence the name chane to a KENYON radio!) when it was new! My mother use to listen to radio shows on it when she was a kid along with her brother and three sisters and it was given to my mother after they passed away. It has spent the last 10 to 15 years sitting in a dark corner of closet and has not worked in many many years.
If you are interested in the details of what all I have done to it to not only restore it to working condition, but integrate a micro-controlled MP3 Player to mimic several old radio stations from the time that this radio was new, you can check out the write up on it at: mycrazycorner.com/?page_id=528
For over a year now, Elisa and I have been looking out for opportunities to contribute to our Found Shadow Project. Here are some of the results.
We set up these rules for the project:
1. Only 'found' shadows could be entered in the project (nothing is staged!).
2. The object casting the shadow must be out of frame.
3. Only available light, natural or otherwise. may be used.

This week's weather was some snow - not enough to be exciting, just enough to worry a mom when the kids are on the road.
Today I wanted to do something on this building. It was already getting dark when I took the photos which was really good because of all those lights...
I enjoyed watching the short lived "Starcom in the late 80's early 90's. I've wanted to build something along the lines of the Starmax Bomber for a while, and here are the results.
The front cockpit and pilot seating position isn't too good, due to the landing strut being right below.Overall this has a sleeker look than the cartoon and is missing a few of the features of the real one, but it was a fun build.
