    Rainmac the tesco voucher thingy doesn't have a date on it so you can use it for which ever day suits you as this is what I did in March when I met up with you (still think back to wot a lovely day that was and chatting to you and Melissa and getting to know you both wish it could've been longer as it went so fast!!) may be more people will be able to make it for the November one.

    I am soooooo glad you have finally got a proper diagnosis and seen a proper doctor who fianlly gave you the help you needed and deserved!! Took time though didn't it!! So just saying sciatica wasn't really good enough was it as the underlying condition will need monitoring and possibly treating etc etc. (sorry won't talk too much as aware we're not meant to get all medical on here!!). The most important thing is that you are being treated correctly and will be on the mend.

    Just in case I don't get the chance to say it again good luck for Friday!!

    I'm sure you will get your card craftiness back but with all the other things going on in your life it's not surprising, you are an amazing woman!!

    Thank you qwiksave!! First thing I have bought in weeks so very excited!!!

    Brilliant cheers Furry :D Hope to see you again in November :A I think there is a craft fair there too so we could check that out and get ideas for what we can make ourselves ;)

    I have to confess I'm a bruxist too (sounds better than teeth grinder). I have to wear a very unattractive mouthgaurd, but at least it means I'll still have some teeth left in 10 years time :D

    emujuice - lovely exploding box card

    dragonllew - have left a comment on your blog but your cards are amazing

    Rusty - I am so glad you've got a proper diagnosis and a physio referral now, hope the codeine helps

    I've got 4 male cards to make but can't seem to get motivated. I had a play yesterday but nothing seemed 'right' so I'm off to stalk some blogs for ideas :rotfl:

    Flourgirl I had one of them the other day ... the postage charge puts me off to be honest and I reckon the glitter pot will have the offer on again ... I would definately order from them again.

    Well I've just finished making a card ... I used my new shiny corner punch woohoo :j and my new card candy :j :j Rainmac can I ask how you stick your card candy on? I can't find my adhesive pads but just about managed with DST!

    Thanking you for all your kind messages about me going to the docs, I am still trying to go pain killer free but it is becoming more and more difficult. Not sure if I need to build up the codeine in my system or not ? will have to ring them and ask.

    anyhoo enough nitter nattering here is my card :)
