Sponsor my private revolution:

What am I selling on Ebay today?

Let the Revolution begin...
*You can be any age to join the knitting revolution. It's not just grannies any more.
*To join, just grab the nearest pointy things, and tie them to the nearest string-like substance. Wave them enthusiastically in the air, yelling passionate cries such as "och aye the noo!"
*The revolution requires that you supply your own weapons. Er, needles. *Knitting can be sexy. Sure, it can. Go to knitty and be inspired!
*Knit in public, and if anyone looks at you funny, you've always got a sharp metal thing handy with which to poke their soft bits.
*Get all knitting-zen on people. Then when you really let your hair down, you can get away with it, because you're "that nice person, who knits". *insert evil laugh here*
*Oh, yeah, almost forgot. The revolution will not be televised. Or... something like that.

I moved to Canberra last November, and am now involved in the best Canberra knitting group! ... so any locals or visitors interested, go on over to Canberra Stich N Bitch yahoo group and join us in our dark endeavours! I mean, creative meeting of minds... er, yeah. Something like that. We meet at Starbucks in Civic on the first Thursday evening of every month, and the third Sunday of the month at 2pm. Come along! If you feel shy, feel free to post online first, or email someone to ask a few questions. :):):) If you want, use the contact button and I'll give you my details so we can get in touch. Always happy to get the interesting people of Canberra out of the woodwork... I know you're there, ya just hard to find sometimes *chuckle*

Sydney Knitting Adventures continue at "my" previous knitting group in Newtown: Meet up for coffee, cake, and knitting adventures galore at Barmuda Cafe, Australia Street Newtown. It's opposite the police station, and across the intersection from Newtown Train Station.

See the SSK Website for details :D

You, and this many other people with a cramp in their forefinger:

Sudoku survey... finally!

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=410282324063

Do you play Sudoku?

If so, Monica Atallah, Carolyn Talevich and Kelly
Thomas, all students of Psychology at the University
of Canberra, would appreciate your participation in
our survey, which should take no longer than 30
minutes of your time.

The survey explores the motivations and emotions of
people in relation to their leisure time. In
particular we are looking at why people play Sudoku,
and what emotions they experience during play.

If you are interested in participating, please click
the link below. And if you don't play Sudoku, please
pass this along to anyone you know who does! We need
as many responses as possible.

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=410282324063

If you need to log out and resume the survey later,
you may do so, picking up where you left off, by
clicking the link again.

Thanks so much for your time. If you have any
questions regarding the study, please contact
sudokuthesis-questions@yahoo.co.uk
