And this just in. It's the end of an era. My old and formerly trusty sewing machine has finally f***ing snuffed it. Not quite as traumatic as the Harry thing, but it feels strange. Back in the day, my Mum and I used to make our own clothes and curtains and such. And I bought my own sewing machine with my very first pay cheque. (Looong time ago...) It was This Whole Big Thing about me and my own life. Well, I can't remember the last time I actually sewed a garment, but still - it came in plenty handy for mending and such. And now its bobbin has finally bobbed its last.
It's just one of those weeks, isn't it?
Though I suppose I am grateful, in a way, as they now make purple sewing machines. I mean to say. Purple.
