    Hi fives Pip! It’s a beautiful, inspirational, welcoming corner of the internet you’ve established here, and I love visiting! You ought to know that you taught me how to crochet while I was on maternity leave with my first son! I’ve been thinking of you at the moment while I crochet a lap blankey to send to my sister who’s currently living overseas. I think of you often also, as you live literally around the corner from my brother, Simon (you may know of him, he works for RRR??).

    Anyway, congrats! Hope you managed some sort of celebration!

      AW! Nothing makes me happier than a bit of crochet pass it on! I am so glad to hear that. I am so glad you visit me. The internet can be weird… so thank heavens for people like us!!! Is it Simon W? It’s a small world, isn’t it?! xx

    Congratulations! I’m a new reader and have really enjoyed your blog so far.

    Happy birthday to you and your blog! No offence, it’s not like your blog is all wrinkly or anything, but I can’t believe it’s ONLY been eight years! I’ve been blogging longer than that (can’t believe that either…) and my blog is still a mere blot on the internet landscape. What can I say? You’re obviously a natural outreacher, Pip, and a hard grafter. Keep up the good work 🙂

    Your blog and your books are what got me thinking that maybe, must maybe, I could start my own little crafty, bloggy business. You’ve been a huge inspiration to me. Big congratulations to you for this milestone. You are a gift lovely lady!

    And thank YOU for everything Pip- the reads, the chats, the other blogs I’ve found via you, the courses, the support, the KUWTK catch ups, the recipes, the books, the recommendations ( I picked up The Stays yesterday), the laughs. Gosh, so, so many things all because of you & this blog. Massive love xxx

      OMG. Thank YOU! ALSO… did you watch the latest K&K Hamptons? Poor Scott… He’s so sad 🙁

      • Reply Reannon @shewhorambles December 5, 2014 at 4:14 PM

        I watched it yesterday- so sad. I love him & Kourt but man, their relationship is all over the place!

        • Reply Meet Me At Mikes December 5, 2014 at 5:59 PM

          I know…. they really do love each other SO MUCH. I am glad Kourt is seeing a therapist now. I think that’s super helpful. x
