But - please do your own diary!!!

Its also true.

Argh the choices - glad I am not in charge tee hee .......runs out quickly SM is an :A for the thread - I just love it.

I know what you mean angelflower, I am sometimes too shy to join in on established threads. I try to use my diary as a tracking device, but I get terribly side-tracked. Because I will be paying back my debt for a very long time, I find it helpful to be able to see when I promised or delivered things!

I love the openess of this particular thread and how everyone is welcome, it would be horrible if this unique aspect disappeared.

Hmm have had my thinking cap on and have decided to compromise on the style of the thread;)
During the week when we are all hard at it grafting and posting lots I will carry on the daily dfw thread as normal:D , at the weekend when there are usually less posts because we are all out doing stuff I think we will have a weekend thread covering the two days:D ,that way I can have a lie in now and again on Sundays too without worrying about getting things started:p

I don't want to put off any new posters with a long thread as the more people we have posting the more varied and interesting it is:T

(and I need to keep a close eye on fay for signs of rampant food buying, excess charity shop sprees and wayward trips to the florists:rotfl: :rotfl: )
