    Ali beautiful stitched card

    Skiergirl you need to sign up for emails from megatrains they do some good prices at times we got my son home from heathrow to meadowhall for 15 quid and dad for a tenner .

    Try here for prices but think it may only cover to the beginning of nov at the moment it will cover rest of nov from nearer end of this month. £64 quid does sound expensive .

    Oh dear I'm surprised you can string any letters together at all you sound so fraught. Wish I was nearer I could come & sit with her while you have a nap....not that she'd want me...I can only say if she rests at all you must do the same cuddle up together but don't forget to set the alarm for the docs appt. (((Hugs)))

    Thankyou Marg, your kindness means so much. I am struggling to think of anything other than her today which is probably a good thing. she is shattered but in so much pain that she just won't settle. Luckily OH has stayed at home today because of her being so poorly as I have my MRI scan today which I was going to cancel!! ...

    OOh rusty that's terrible . My dil is a nursery manager and she says the kids often get it and unfortunately there is nothing you can give them only calpol and things. she sent me this link which explains about it. Doesn't sound very nice poor little thing . Hope she feels much better soon.

    Good luck with the mri this afternoon . Hope they can decide how to fix you.

    Marg - I know what you mean - I only do it for the kids as they love it - but I am sure there is a 4* hotel with my name on it!!

    Well I have actually managed to complete 2 challenge cards - the stitched one and the xmas one over at ccc, I've only got about 10 more to go - I'll post some pics later!!!

    myzdamena - flippin great xmas card!!!!! Your daughter's fairy card is fabulous!!!!

    Dragonflew - lovely selection of cards on your blog your stitched card is gorgeous - it must have taken you ages. Your fairy cards are lovely too - their glittery wings are so pretty.

    Polly - great card - such a pretty image and I love your butterfly charm. Congratulations on your blog candy win - those doodle stamps are gorgeous!!!

    Wam73 - hello and welcome to the thread.

    Emma - welcome back!!!

    Ali - beautiful stitched card!!! I hate using photobucket - it seems to be so slow for me!!! I gave up using it and just use my blog for my pics now.

    Rusty - sorry to hear your daughter's poorly - I have never heard of hand, foot and mouth but it sounds horrendous!! Good luck with your mri later!

    Good luck for the MRI rusty - you'll probably fall asleep in there now!
    All I can suggest for DD is lots of ice lollies/ice cream. It'll sooth her mouth, get some fluids into her, and make her feel like she's being spoilt! I guess it's lucky DS is away, hopefully DD will not be contagious by the time he comes home. :confused:

    rainmac - what on earth were you doing posting at that unearthly hour of the morning! :eek: :p
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)
