week 3 - we raise a glass to 'absent friends' and Meg likes her Christmas present

---

Had old friends visit me this weekend - some just dropped by and some stayed the weekend - raised a glass to Amar - some of us with champers, and some with Cream Soda - wonder what he would have made of that.
Made a wire weave carnelian and copper pendant and matching ear cuff for Meg Jayanth, and she wore the ear cuff all weekend - result! Her mother has commissioned two necklaces and I am busy thinking up new ways to combine the materials she has given me with ideas to make the jewellery suit Meg's most vibrant personality - I will have to come up with something very creative indeed - the old brain cells are ticking over - I can hear the creaks groans and wheezes.
