    I saw the scrapping albums today but they looked like they were aimed at kids and already foam bits stuck to the cover.

    I measured them against some a4 paper which was taller so not sure how big the protectors are inside?

    Can I just mention, for those people who have not yet discovered them, the naan breads in packets of 2 for 59p are amazing grilled and then spread with a little melted butter, mmmm

    Be careful with the naan breads we bought some once but we noticed some were going mouldy in the bags. :eek:
