Oh, that's a shame. Still, it was October 2007 I got it - it was a birthday present. I hope you are able to find another one that's as good without having to break the bank!

Well, Trojan is going to sleep for a while now! I finished the page I was working on, but it was only about 60 scattered stitches so I haven't taken another picture for the moment. I'll be in the UFO Club for the next week and will then be working on Sunflower Panel No 2 as that project is quickly becoming a UFO as well!

Gosh, two months since I stitched any of Trojan!

Anyway because this is my smallest project, I thought it would be the easiest one to stitch while away for the weekend. The weather wasn't too good so the stitching I did ended up being done in the car, so good thing I didn't take a huge project!

Here's me stitching at the campsite. I've just noticed there is an unfortunate background of a man bent over presenting his rear end to the camera, hahahaha!

Here's a progress picture - I managed to get about two thirds of a page done, but I realised I was missing about 5 colours as some of them are in my HAED box, so there are still gaps to fill in.

Nice to see Trojan again!
Just had a thought - does he come camping/hiking with you? (I mean the real Trojan, not the stitching!!) :D

Haha, no Trojan doesn't come camping, he goes in kennels. First of all it's a 3 hour drive to the lakes and he hates being in the car - he goes mad after 5 minutes, whining, barking and leaping about.

Second, we only have a 2-man tent and he's also really awful and aggressive around other dogs unless they're under control and on leads, and hiking you come across lots of loose ones nowhere near their owners.

This latest trip would have been impossible with him as well as the field was ankle deep in mud and he'd be covered in it! :lol:
