I'm dreaming of fall and winter. I've been out the last 3 days and nights staying in a tent. It was 98F today with 95% humidity, which is like about 110F feels like weather. You couldn't move without sweating. The nights have been around 75F.

And today was the same way! I was outside by 8am and I ran out of energy by noon, though I didn't come home until around 4pm.

I don't like it hot either. Today hit 103F with 90% humidity. Too much! I prefer the fall and winter months.

THE SPINin's LONGEST THREAD CONTEST is an international contest inaugurated in 1986 for the 'Longest threads of raw wool, hand spun and plied to weigh 10 grams'. The record for the longest thread is recognised by The Guinness Book of Records. Through the spinning of a thread of raw wool, spinners throughout the world are linked in friendship and greater understanding and encouraged to improve the length and quality of the spinning. Threads are to be presented in a ball for measurement. Weighing and measuring is witnessed in a public centre. Quality is considered to be of great importance.
There are four sections in the contest:
A. The Longest Thread of raw wool hand spun on a spinning wheel and plied to 2 ply from 10 grams of raw wool
B. This section is for those who wish to participate in the <FRIENDSHIP thread> but do not wish their thread to be measured. These threads will be added to the <FRIENDSHIP thread> and the funds generated through this project will be donated to charity. The spinners names will be recognised in the project documentation C. Junior Spinners Contest The Longest Thread of raw wool hand spun on a spinning wheel and plied to 2 ply from 10 grams of raw wool. This is in two parts – C10 10 years and under – C16 16 years and under D. The Longest Thread of raw wool hand spun with a hand propelled spindle, and plied to 2 ply from 10 grams of raw wool.

Are you sure about that or are you just spinning a yarn?

Dave

Spinning a yard or telling a tall tale or fibbing or telling a story, etc.
