Oh We Like Sheep

[tealin]

I would like to take a moment to say

I LOVE WOOL.

I have long known it's the best thing for keeping out damp cold, it's incredibly durable, and stain-resistant, fairly wrinkle-resistant as well (yet creasable!) and all-around excellent.

Today I splurged and got some heavyweight wool suiting for the frock coat part of my Halloween costume (which I plan on wearing every winter, not just for one day). It is luxurious. Compared to the odd mystery polyester blend I was working with last year, and to the lining I was trying the pattern on last week, it's an absolute dream to pin the pattern to, cut, pin together, and I expect it'll be magnificent to sew and finish as well.

THANK YOU, SHEEP! Keep up the good work!

Not only is it marvelous to sew, it's also incredibly forgiving. O, the rapture of wool.

I see Steerpike greatly resembles Jonathan Rhys Meyers. Am I right? :)

Um ... he is Jonathan Rhys Myers. Seven years ago. Before he was 'hot.'

That is to say, he's played by Mr R-M. Perhaps Mr R-M is Steerpike, but it would be hard for Steerpike to be him, on account of having been written a few decades before his birth...

God yes !
I saw him in "Velvet Goldmine", and ...argh !
What happened to him ? What a pity ! In "Match Point" I didn't recognised him at first !
