    Sorry to be a pain Pam, but you've missed off my tragic teddy in the first update post - didn't make him last week, sweated over him a few weeks ago and decided then that he may be my first AND last :o

    Sorry K2tog. your Tragic Ted (love it) seems to have disappeared into the ether some time between 8th & 15th March - have located him and arranged rescue. Can he go into recovery ward for a couple of days before release ?

    luv

    Thanks Pam, rehabbing him as we speak - poor fella, he was quite loved til I got to the stuffin-and sewin- stage, then my affection for him faded even though I was surprised at how well he turned out.
    Good to see you back Shelley, but I feel sick just thinking about your bungee!

    Good morning all,

    Welcome back Shezmit, 6 boob jobs in 2 days - marvelous - makes my wrist ache thinking about it. Bungee - are you nervous yet?

    OnlyGirl - good luck with your boob.

    K2tog - every teddy needs to be loved - no wonder he disappeared!!:rotfl:

    Meeting PamsPal for coffee/brunch soon, then I really should :D do some housework. (Hmmm - we'll see)

    luv

    Hi Shelley,
    It's really nice to see you back. It was no problem posting the message, that is what friends are for & that is what we are on here.
    Good luck with the bungee, I'll put my sponsor money in the next parcel.
    Take care Linda x
