    Rainmac - I've been good lately - I haven't bought any of the new stuff - I think I might cave in soon though.

    flourgirl - lol x
    All this talk of lovely papers - has anyone ever used etsy - only because I ended up there last night - not sure how - and saw some lovely crate paper and the design was gorgeous similar to the robots one - but its all in dollars so panicked and left then tried to find it on english web sites and couldnt find it it didnt have a name of the range though - but if anyone can advise if etsy is ok might be tempted to order - never ordered from abroad before. (led a sheltered life!! ahem)
    Also did anyone have any luck downloading the freebies rainmac posted - I have yet to try again??

    Couple more makes on my blog (linky under name)

    Ali I didn't have any trouble downloading the freebie, I usually save to desktop when its a zip file and extract and save from there and it worked ok.

    Hi Ladies

    How is everyone?

    Flourgirl, my OH is right into aviation and planes and I was showing him the pictures on your blog. He knew right away what it was of course and then said, "I wondered what it's picking up?" - do you know? lol

    By the way, I've just been posting a picture of a towel cake that my daughter asked to do at the weekend for her friend's birthday. Hers looks better than my ones!

    Yummy cake Sal, the teddy looks soooo soft and cuddly.
    The aeroplane has flown in from Cape Verde and is flying out to Pakistan thats all I know at the moment. I will ask DH later, someone on his flying forum will probably know.
