Action Man?

The knitter has returned! Yes followers, I am back and ready to fill your lives with more random thoughts and even greater crises. In case you are all worrying that you may have missed crucial goings-on in my life in the last couple of months, please put your minds at rest - the knitter has been quietly eating ice cream and dropping the odd stitch whilst trying to multitask and watch telly.

But this quiet existence may be about to change. Yes folks, please prepare yourselves - the knitter has a date! Yes, and with a real love man and all! Not just an ogling session at Mc Steamy on Grey's Anatomy, but a real live, breathing, complaining man! Now, ordinarily this is not a situation in which the knitter would find herself. Let alone with the additional complications surrounding the man in question. However, the knitter has had a moment of what can only be described as bravery and agreed to meet a handsome stranger. Oh, I must confess at this point - the uniform helped! There is even talk of this uniform making an appearance tomorrow... But do not fear knitting fans, I will not let you down in terms of complications, for there are many. Not least because handsome stranger lives and works abroad. Ordinarily the knitter would not consider a date with such a complication but given that 30 is approaching with the speed of an over-stoked steam train, it's time to give something different a chance. So really, I ask that you keep your fingers crossed that the knitter lives to stitch another day.
