Hello – I’m Alison, a very happy 40 something and I live in Yorkshire in the UK. I have 2 lovely children, Ellen who is 18 and Jacob who is 15 .
By day I am a teacher trainer but am also a medieval re-enactor (my pic shows me in my finery at a banquet), involved in Scouting and a passionate stitcher! I love camping and am happiest in a field , preferably one with a view of mountains!
I am engaged to a wonderful man called Stefon who is also a re-enactor who shares my love of camping , Scouting and is also a dab hand with a needle!

Hi Alison
Thanks for the comment on my blog. Great blog. Been read your ‘about me’ – you seem a very interesting person. I love mountains too.
I will look in again soon.
Happy knitting – that pile should keep you busy for a while.
