    You'd make a fab detective ;) :rotfl:


    Says you ;) ... you gonna come join me and set up a spying business?? :rotfl:


    Morning all, still no mojo for me :( although I am desperately trying, the boxes keep calling me, but it is not strong enough to pull me away from the books I have been reading this week which entails long sleepless nights cause I am soooo engrossed .... I hopefully will do some crafting this week now normaluty is returning!!


    My son is coming home today :ju :j :j :j I am soooo excited that I got up early ... I am going to touch up some paint in his befroom and then put his new bed sheets and packs of go go's on his bed ready for him coming home :D ..... (how bad am I!)

    Hope you all have a fab weekend, I may not get on much as I really want to make the most of this next week and a half before DS flys out to Bulgaria with my aunt to see my dad and S/mum!! wish I was going with him but not enough pennies this year!!

    So glad your DS is coming home today Rusty, don't hug him too hard will you ;) I think we would make excellent detectives, I could cover the south and you could cover the north :rotfl:

    I have posted the winner of the card swap for this month over on CP... http://craftyplace.yuku.com/topic/190?page=6

    And also set the theme for the next card swap, it's another 'style' of card as the pocket theme seemed very popular... http://craftyplace.yuku.com/topic/234/master/1/
    :wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:

    Morning Rusty - Thomas will be thrilled when he gets home - it's weird how much they love go gos isn't it?
    What have you been reading?

    We're off to a bowling party this morning and then I need to go round the house collecting clothes for holiday - it's been a nghtmare trying to get stuff dry at the moment - tumble dryer dies last year and we haven't bothered fixing it yet.

    Have a great day everyone

    Morning Mrs T :D He will be bouncing about on the train annoying his real dad (Good boy!) just to get home to us :D ... I have to make the most of my time with him before he goes again!! I am dreading it :( but know he will have fun driving my dads tractor and quad bikes and stuff over there on the large land! ... These gogo's are bugging me ... he has loads already and that choccy sent her elves up and the bought him a gogo duvet cover!!! .... I am however worrying incase he now wants a go go bedroom ... I know nothing about them? ... but can see I will end up printing pictures out for him!!

    Enjoy your bowling :D and enjoy your holiday! .... OH leant me the money to buy a dryer before I moved in with him and I paid him back weekly .... (I wouldn't let him buy it for me!) and it has been a godsend sometimes, however I do miss hanging my washing out on the line in the sun!!!

    Hi just come back to find my last post didn't happen - sorry folks!

    Well done Bunbun! Thank you rainmac for organising!

    Rusty - Enjoy your reunion with your son - Please, what are go go's? Yes, I second Mrs Tidge's question what are you reading? Think there's a slot on the craftyplace for books/reading, might it tempt you to post 'til your mojo returns?

    Mrs Tidge - Don't envy you, not having a drier in this weather, though your bank balance will be OK - my drier eats electric!! but I much prefer line dried washing anyway. My friend visited an indian reservation in the US and her hosts said 'How bad is that?' because the indians (or should it be native americans?) were drying clothes outside. My friend didn't quite know what to say as she is a devotee of line drying too!

    Sorry for that little ramble off topic but washing & ironing is my 'other hobby' according to DH! Sun's coming out here.....goes off to find things to wash......LOL
