Through The Eye Of A Needle

Yeah, it’s lovely isn’t it?  A piece of mechanically engineered beauty.  Not only has the looks but practical too.  Makes the proverbial cherry on top of the cake for finishing off clothing.  BUT, this gorgeous hunk of metal brings out the worst in me.

I have just spent 15 minutes trying to thread the 4th needle and bugger me, I can’t do it.  I even changed my specs to see if it made a difference (well anything is worth a try, surely?).  In the end I resorted to profanity and walked away.

If anyone has any top tips for threading a needle when you are myopic and hyperopic, then throw them my way.  Otherwise I shall have to buy ear defenders for the children of the house.

Thank you.
