    that crib looks beautiful, well done:T

    been busy here today so not on the puter much

    i didnt really want to bring the forum down so didnt talk about it, it was the funeral of a little girl from the school i work at today. i couldnt face the funeral so i went into school to help with the children that were there as most of the staff and quite a lot of her class went. she was a lovely lovely little girl. its so unfair, i want everyone of you with children to give them a big hug when you get the chance and think about how blessed we are to have them.

    So sorry to hear about that little girl mrs-moneypenny. It's hard enough when it's an adult, but it's just not fair when it's a child. My great nephew was killed in an accident when he was 15 - that was 5 years ago now, and it still hurts.

    Yes, of course it's ok. Glad you like it :D

    Good thing is it's easy to post too, as all pieces can be folded flat and just slipped over the tub your end. I've stuffed the mattress and pillow on this one so I could take a nice photo, but that will be your job from now on :) Also left the ribbons longer and untied so you can adjust them as needed.

    Did my last little parcel arrive yet?

    L C Wilson, that's the prettiest thing, and no one could ever find a better reason for eating icecream .
    Mrs Moneypenny, you made me weep, and probably everyone else on here, hugs all round.

    Yeah, it's a Carte D'or tub underneath - A Caramel Cinnamon Waffle one (which is now definitely empty :p). Nothing is fixed down though, so easy to slip on and off.
