100th International Woman’s Day
Last Week was the 100th International Woman’s Day. On my way home I was listening to the radio and heard about a poll a newspaper had run asking "Who is your favourite influential London woman?" Loads sprang to mind but the actual results are just nuts (in my opinion). Virginia Woolf gets 0.15% of the vote, Rosalind Franklin 0.19%,Angela Hartnett 0.09%, Millicent Fawcett 0.51%......and the winner is Leona Lewis with 70.9%. Is it just me or is this completely crazy? I don't ever pick up the newspaper who did the poll, so maybe it's not meant for me but even so, surely we can do better than this?
So just to celebrate the ladies who rock...Virginia Woolf Angela Hartnett Rosalind Franklin

Stitch London’s Stitched Sealife Six project
My pal Yvonne sent me info for this knitted invasion at the Natural History Museum. A fun way to interact with the space and exhibits. I wonder how Darwin would have reacted to wearing an orange squid boa?...think it suits him.
"We interrupt this programme to bring you breaking news from London’s Natural History Museum. Reports are flooding in that four of the Museum’s inmates have broken out of their jars and are causing havoc throughout the building.
Anyone spotting the Stitched Sealife Escapees should keep to a safe distance and alert the authorities. I repeat, do not attempt to take them down yourself!"
Read more about it on the Stitch London Blog (formerly Stitch and Bitch London)
(NB This event happened last year so you can only see it online I think)
