I may be on the wrong thread but I could offer baking (including bread making) and jams and preserves.

My grandmother was reported to carry on knitting socks in her sleep. In those times all the socks were hand knitted, so she got a lot of practice! Sometimes ended up with very long socks, though - until the yarn ran out.  |

| I have a file containing step-by-step guides in knitting, crochet and dress-making that I collected about 20 years ago. A lot of the things (like tank tops) are well out of fashion, but the basics of each still hold good. It is something I haven't looked at in years, but would gladly pass it on to anyone who wants it. They could make a donation to Neeps for it. |

Hi,
Wow I'd be interested in the metal working. That dragon is absolutely beautiful!!!!!
Another course I'd really be interested in, which isn't crafty but someone might know something is Beekeeping???

I think Diana has found somebody who's introducing her to beekeeping... But she's the other end of Aberdeenshire. However, Aberdeen Beekeepers Association offer very good evening classes (free); last year, a composting event was also combined with a brief introduction to beekeeping (ask the mastercomposter). _________________ Ina |

Hi,
Wow thanks, will have a look at the association and will ask around locally. Can't help thinking there must be someone fairly near by.
