    Ta muchly - I have been to that blog before and thought I was following it, obviously not.

    I can't remember who it was who made that fab card with the granny on the bike, and I can't remember if it was her who wanted to know where she got the image - but I've just found it.

    Afternoon all.......Was meant to be having a crafting weekend but haven't moved a sheet of card!

    Had my first lot of physio yesterday, they had to give up after 10 minutes due to pain, they managed a full half hour on my hubby but he could hardly walk afterward! Decided to bite the bullet today and go find a car for when the money comes through, well happy with what I chose and have put down a deposit. The very nice car sales man (they do exist) was happy to take the deposit and wait for the rest after I explained what happened.

    Love and hugs to all that need it x x
    Life is like a box of chocolates..........you always seem to pick the hard ones!

    Just what my DH has just said!

    Wanna-b-rich - Just seen your comment on my home page, no, sorry, I haven't received your card. Naughty Royal Mail, it's very rare for anything of ours to go astray.

    Actually, at the risk of upsetting anyone (sorry if I do), can I just mention about cards with thicker embellies on? It's best to check at the post office that they go through the slot for either normal or large letter post. We're very lucky to have lovely posties here but I did have two cards with the dreaded yellow stickers on saying they were underpaid and there was £x.xx to pay. Luckily they were both delivered and I didn't have to pay. If I'd have had a card informing me there was post with underpayment on and to pick it up from the sorting office then as it is a 20 mile round trip to ours, with the price of petrol and at least £1.10 per item to pay then I would not have gone to get them. Sorry if I've offended anyone :o.

    It's one way of keeping yourself in stash. Plus I hope nobody ever complains that I over-price my cards!!!

    Don't blame you, I'd be the same if it needed money paying for underpaid postage. I wouldn't bother unless I was expecting an important letter!

    You could buy alot of stash with that amount - I'd rather a person gave me the money than spend that on a card!!!!
