fuzzy gets frustrated

Struggling today to get anything done as web connection is so slow. The third world starts outside the metropolitan areas even in so-called first world countries wanting to be part of the so-called smart economy. Unfortunately that seems to mean we will need some smart politicians who have some idea of what it is like to live in the real world.
Web designers are NOT helping at all, so intent on using the latest bells and whistles, forgetting that most of the world does not have a super fast broadband connection.
So, no pictures tonight, and this text is only going to take me half the night to upload. Great.
eircom had the cheek to come around here touting for business in an area that has no exchange enabled. Smart, I think not.
Meanwhile on the fibre front I am busy working on some new stuff around the idea that it is time to subvert the military machine a little more. Fibre people are generally very nice, perhaps too nice.
I'm considering a line of accessories for the military man's home from home - along the lines of camouflage gear in the kitchen to go with the trendy uniforms. Mine will be for a blue planet, none of those dusty greens and grays, mind that would do very nicely in Oz, blend in with the bush. More on that another day

my etsy

I think this is a bit over the top in terms of advertising etsy but for now I'm leaving it in.
It uses less of my resources than uploading pics to the blog and they are all my own work in any case

Here is a side view of my latest cap, in beautiful merino wool, wet felted with inlay pattern, lined in royal blue. Trim is embroidered cord in viscose and cotton. It took a while to finesse the template, but all has turned out well.
I'm in the process of getting a website up and running, this will act as a mini showcase for my current work. I will link it through to my flikr account so that everyone can access lots of detail photos easily. A mini shop, details of my etsy shop for those inclined and a gallery of work which I plan to change regularly.
I had hoped to have had a broadband link in by now but there is still no wired connection available, only satellite! And it ain't cheap.
Meanwhile I'm stuck on dial-up for now.
