    Evening all, been to MIL's for tea dropping Avon order off for her & took her a lovely plant we bought from Lidl to say thanks for having both girls during the week. The plant had small daffs in (tete something I think) in a lovely yellow pot with some 'springy' butterfly decorations in, it was lovely & bright really springlike ITMS & was only £1.95 wish I had bought one for myself now as well.

    Hoping to do some comps now whilst DH sorts the kids out for bed then he's going to iron & do lunches for tomorrow, the joys of having a domesticated husband!
    2025 - finally back comping after a stressful house move - send me fairy dust please

    Sometimes you post a comp and then wonder whether it was actually worth the hassle, as it ends up with PMs and extra posts on the thread...icon9.gif

    I've just been daft enough to re-read the last post and it's annoyed me now. Deep breath. Ahhh, that's better. :rotfl:

    No problem with someone trying to help. It's the clever-!!!!!d allusion which created all the messaging / looking back at the OP and the comp page / clarification I could have done without.

    If you have a point, make it, don't just hint at it.

    After all that, I am pretty convinced he was mistaken.

    Over it now, but could have been doing much more enjoyable things. My paint has dried... :rotfl:
