    What a hoot that your dad combed his hair for us all. Loved it and loved the vlog. Super seeing your piccies of the retreat. 🧶🧶

    What a delightful podcast. I was laughing and smiling! I love your description of your "stick" and how you "hoover" and how the "whizzy bit" doesn't hurt your parquet floor. I think it is very sweet you let your father take you "vacuum" with him because he liked it! There were many instances throughout your video where your kindness came shining through! I loved your footage of the retreat! I follow many of the ladies at the retreat and it is so nice to see you all together enjoying yourselves and sharing your love of knitting and crafting. It is easy to see how you are all such great friends! Thank you for sharing!!

    I think it is so funny your Dad had taken stick. I love it when your Dad is in the vlogs and I love it when Granny is visiting and on the vlogs. They are both so lovely.

    Gayna, I’m not a knitter but love watching you no matter what the content! Thanks for the discount code for ‘Stick’ - I’ve been meaning to buy a new vacuum and never got round to it so you prompted me. Will let you know how I get on with it x

    Oh I love it Gayna.
    I would so love to come to the retreat but just daren’t…..I’d be so very shy. ( I’m also a lot older )
    So, every year , I live the retreat vicariously through yourself, Ali, Sharon and now also discovered the lovely Nancy from Canada.
    Nancy, if you read this, yes please to a Vlogmas.
    Kelly….. just ordered my jumper yarn….( thank you Sharon for the inspiration.) Kelly I didn’t realise you were originally from my neck of the woods…well almost.
    Keep up with all these fantastic videos ladies. I almost feel a part of it.
    Thank you. 👍👍

    Oh I thought it was just me that had to climb every mountain in my sewing/craft room, well I say room but its more of a quarter of one room! Its my space though and I love it. I tidied it yesterday, hours of moving this to that and from that to this and I still feel I haven't achieved anything and that was after 3 hours! I knew it was 3 hours because my apple watch told me! I wanted a space that I could leave my sewing machine, overlocker and all the other bits that make me, out. The only thing I haven't got is a cutting out space, bit difficult on a round dinning room table but it works to a point. You have a lovely nest Gaynor, one that I could only dream of. Thoroughly enjoy the vlogs they are lovely 🤗

    Your Dad is so sweet! I'm somewhat local to you (just 7,000km & an ocean separating us)- can I apply to go visit Stick and your Dad? I think your complimentary yarn for Hurkle Durkle will be lovely. I love that shade of brown; so warm and inviting! I love the Maybury Caridgan. I knit a similar pattern (the Seasons Cardigan) for my daughter-in-law. She loves it and I really enjoyed knitting it. Learning the fisherman's rib was fun! I think yours is going to look fabulous! Thanks for including the clips of the retreat. I really am envious now!!! Hope you're having a lovely week.

    • @talesfromcuckooland
      @talesfromcuckooland  3 дні тому +1

      I honestly don’t know the answer. It’s great on my rugs and the carpet I do have (not much) is short pile. I’d check the satisfaction and returns policy before ordering. I really like it as a quick run around vacuum but I still get my big one out once a week and run through with that because I have a million kids here over the weekends and dogs.
