I really need to get better at writing here
Full pic: I’ve been experimenting with making glitchy cross stitch. These ones were a nightmare to make. Oddly, the one on the white aida was a bigger nightmare than the black. I also made...

This is my definition of a boombastic jazz style

I was going to walk out to Stockton, but I left it late so I bussed out. Stopped off somewhere for a couple of pints, then went to the Globe. The Globe has been closed ever since I first moved...
