You girls are all mad!!!!
I’m sitting here giggling away to myself with the cat looking at me as if I’m daft (well, I am but that’s beside the point).
Pod is actually a family nickname from when I was a wee baby! (I’m forty now and they still call me Pod!)When I registered, the site asked for a name and it was the best I could think of at short notice.
You were very close with pee pod but my full title is actually pea pod. Apparently as a baby with wind I used to sound like peas popping out of a pod and always had a very surprised look on my face. Pea pod got shortened to Pod and it stuck. My brother forgets sometimes when we are in company and still calls me pod. I get a few strange looks!
Think I’ll need to see if I can copy your comments into an e-mail to show my mum as it would set her giggling too.
OOps!
I’ve come to realise that I can’t knit and listen to you girls at the same time.
Might also have something to do with me watching the tennis and golf on the tv at the same time.

Well ... I knit in the back room and my pc is in the front room,so I hear it ping when an email comes in and I throw the knitting into the chair and run along the hall. Then it turns out to be spam, so I swear profusely, and run back. Less than a minute later I hear it ping again, I think “bollocks, more spam” and ignore it and it is Pod and GG all of a go go, and I think “bollocks, late again”. So I sit here and wang my little words back ...
Then I smile ...
Cos actually its a good life, and there’s a little pea pod out there just knitting and chatting
and there’s a GG out there galloping away ...
and it’s nice to know you have buddies out there in the computer world!

Janet ... I didn’t know you were going to add to the ping count ... but its very good to know you are out there too!
Sometimes I think running up and down the hall is the most exercise I get all evening!!!!
Well, despite all the pings, and the wonderful chats from friends .. I’ve just finished a 10 row pattern of fairisle! And I couldn’t spot any mistakes ... may be my eyesight is going
