Sorry Jammy, I tend to take the labels off when I buy it but from memory mine have all been big labels

Glittermum, very good news about your mum, I think you deserve another glass of wine missus xxx

Mary, you sort of sound like you're on the mend, please look after yourself xxx

Cheers Mel, I wondered if it was October Afternoon as I know you like it and I don't have any of it, yet...

Saw this blog mentioned on someone else's, lots of freebie downloads... http://summertimedesigns.blogspot.com/

Has anyone actually downloaded any of those papers?

I downloaded one set of papers from a kit, took absolutely ages (went and watched Corrie while it was doing it). The papers are, I assume, 12 x 12. How do they print out on a normal printer that takes A4 paper? Not sure I want to spend this amount of time downloading if any of the patterned papers look wrong printed onto A4.

hi guys, sorry I've not posted for a few days, been pretty hectic here! some fab makes, I must mention DTB's bunting though- WOW! I have been whizzing through trying to keep up when I get the chance! the scanner has decided to go on the blink so here's a pic of I've taken of the mag we were in - sorry for the poor quality! I have blanked out peoples names so they will all have to point themselves out if they want to! I'm the one second from the left who looks like a ghost :rotfl: (click to enlarge xx)

Thanks to everyone for their comments. I'm glad you liked it. My bunting is all ready to travel down to my sisters tomorrow ad this evening I've made absoltely nowt apart from tea - quorn stroganoff followed by baked apples and cups of tea. I got really ehind with thenhousework this week so I;ve had to have a quick whiz round.
I'm taking a few crafty things down to my sisters house to make valentines cards for her from her boys. "&son" has been practicing playing 'God Save the Queen' on his recorder and is going to get her hubby to video it so he can play it upon her return. It's a shame we won;t be there when she gets back at the end of the month really but I guess she'd like to settle back home a bit first.

Hope everything comes good for those of you who need it to over the weekend.

Just a quickie, as I desperately need a drink after the hot studio lights! Will catch up on posts later.

David Dimbleby (tonight's Question Time) pointed to me to give an opinion near the end of the show, talking about assisted dying. Look out for me x
