    OT again... but I've just had the call to say that my new niece has arrived safely! :D
    I'm gutted that I can't meet her until Thursday (stoopid swine flu! :mad:).
    I now have 3 days to try to make my first nappy cake. :p


    I have a new neice too, i can't see her untill the end of aug as we live different ends of the country, Hubby would have to take time off work and we would need to pay for a hotel to stop in and we just can't afford it so they will be coming up here. I won't have that nice peace and quiet when i have bub as every family member under the sun will be in the area as it's xmas.

    Nearly finished my friends 30th card and sort of started the cp one colour challange.
    :)Mummy to 2 wonderful boys :)
    Want to be fit for 30 not fat at 30
    but i want never gets!!!

    Congratulations to all the new aunties/relatives/etc!!

    I'm off to make an anniversary card now after having spent an hour writing a letter of complaint to Gardener's World (of all places!! :eek:)

    If someone had told me that one day I would complain to a gardening magazine about referring to brothels I would have thought they were deranged! :confused:
    I know it's a (sad) fact that sex sells but why refer to the sex industry when describing a flower??!! Sensuality maybe - or even certainly - but brothels??!!

    Anyway, I'm obviously boring and prude at the ripe old age of 32, so I'm off to make some cards! :p
