    TK Maxx don't have many....but they do have a few, and they have some small Xmas themed ones....may get some of them and make a couple of special Xmas cards, one for OH's parents, one for mine and one for my nanna

    Hi everyone,

    Grrrr....my third attempt at an update pic. Hope this works....

    Last week:
    [URL]file://\\svrrexc3\userdirs\e411766\My Documents\My Pictures\Santa19Oct.jpg[/URL]

    This week:
    [URL]file://\\svrrexc3\userdirs\e411766\My Documents\My Pictures\Santa26Oct.jpg[/URL]

    So as you can hopefully see, Santa now has boxers to keep him warm, and would have some socks too, if the seller at Ally Pally hadn't picked out DMC 3840 instead of 3740 grrrr.....

    Anyway, Mum is sending that colour to me in the post - so how long it will be before I get to stitch the socks is anyone's guess :rotfl:.

    AAAARRRGHHHHH!!

    In the words of Victor Meldrew - "I don't BELIEVE it".

    DH cleared the camera onto disks last night and now everything is 'read only' and I can't copy/paste the photos. SO ANNOYED. Blooming Men, think they have the god given right to fiddle with things.

    Why would I want photos of my work? said DH last night. Well why not?? said I.

    Not a happy bunny :mad:

    Will try again tomorrow when I (hopefully) have more energy. That's once I've taken the dog for his clip, weighed in at fat club, taken the 3 children to the dentist and kept 3 kids, 1 nephew and one neighbours child amused/fed/watered for the afternoon. Wish me luck.
