I will trumpet the completion of it loud and long when it's finally done in the next few days.
I'm using a DIY and hosting package called Mr Site which was recommended to me by my brother-in-law who did my old website. I do very little in-service training for teachers now and as that was the main focus of the old website it seems fairly important to do some updating!! It's very affordable and fairly straightforward - you just need to make a series of decisions about colours, fonts, styles etc. the thing that's taking a fair bit of time right now is re-sizing my photos so that they fit and will look good (fingers, eyes and legs crossed!!).
Not much creative work of my own going on at the moment what with doing the website and work for clients but I have bought some wonderful new books with money I was given for Christmas. Take a look at Amazon for these . . . .

Uncommon Crochet by Julie Armstrong

All gorgeous books - very different but inspiring and all related to things I want to do . . . . . when I get time.
