Oioi Still not been posting much to the old blog recently. Things have been a bit busy. Been visiting my brother in Greece, and so much moving. So, yeah, life's been a bit hectic eh. So, I was staying in Galashiels and working at the uni as a technical assistant, repairing and maintaining the looms and running the power loom. First off, at the end of last summer, I moved my tools into a farm outbuilding at a pal's place in Earlston, about a 20 minute drive away from my house. I got a little bit done there, but not that much in the grand scale of things. Then in April I decided to rent a garage unit in the same town and moved my tools there. I then found a cast-iron dobby head online and decided to buy it and get the floor loom back from up north. The funny thing about this was that the dobby head was in the deep-south of England, which required two days of driving and added about £150 onto the (very reasonable) price of the thing. The thing came with a compressor.
Because I can, so I do. Wouldn't You?
