    why not make a note of everything you want to make etc and then a list of everyone you give presents to and see if you can match them together gloss?

    You're right jdougl - I'll need to get everything down on paper and get organised!

    thanks mum, using it as an excuse to make OH do the housework for once :P
    Hows Bailet settling in? (If arrived yet that is)

    Am getting on well with my scarf so far and have just checked through after remembering mention of a wool shop on the other thread and discovered kemps and a happy happy girl am I, or will be when I have pennies lol.

    Got some more cross stitch done today and a few rows extra on the scarf- slow and steady wins the race after all!

    U've got oh well trained, (only joking), we get Bailey start of Aug, can't wait, the house is so quiet.

    Our nxt dr neighbours got a 9mth old think Retervier, he is a big softie, went round to see her yesterday (the neighbour + her kids) sat on the settee the dog jumped up, straight on his back, legs open, for his belly tickled.
    Their cat is getting very comfy here, she sleeps by the shed, (under perspeck), I've never known a cat sleep so much, we put her out at night, this morning, dad heard a miaow, she was on top of the perspeck waiting for the dr open!

    We're getting little presents for dd, she passed her ballet and tap exams, so that was presents, and she had a fab school report more prezzies, lucky I'd ordered a bratz ds game for £4.00 from Amazon, so we said it was a present from Bailey, that way shes getting use to him, and knows hes her dog..... thou she did ask do they do nappies for dogs!!
