Well done louby-lou - I think anyone who has the guts to do a craft stall is very brave

Flourgirl, lovely to have you back, so sorry the weather in Wales was rubbish x

Rusty, my OH would no way offer to take me to a craft shop and then offer to spend money on craft products, you lucky girl you

Popkins, is it you who asked about the cupcake/muffin image on my blog. It is a Magnolia stamp called Love Muffin, if you'd like some stamped please send me a pm with your address, no problem x

I came across this fantastic stamp site today and HAD to place an order :rolleyes:

How shall we plan the trip to the NEC, last time clever Sylph and PLM set up a facebook group, I haven't got a clue how to do that and not sure if we are all on FB this time? If we did use FB again it would mean we can keep our NEC conversations in one place so we can keep track of everything. Shall we do the same again and does anyone who knows how want to volunteer to create the FB group?

I started my Xmas shopping this week :T

That's how I found it too!!! I bought the teacup (got some teapot charms coming from another site), juggling penguin, tiny holly and a set of 4 greetings in the sale, spent less than a tenner for all of them inc. p&p

I could however have bought loads of stamps as I loved lots of them.

Padster, are you able to come to the NEC?

They have some lovely bears on there but am being (well trying) to be good .
Still don't know about the NEC - can't really ask for a day off until I'm back at work :rotfl: and it's always difficult to get time off anyway they're trying to limit us to 2 off at a time and with 20 staff with 5 weeks each plus limited leave over school holidays and none at year end. We had to put our summer (June - Sept) requests in in January and were limited to 2 weeks each for those 4 months as well. So not sure how it's all going to fit in and they won't pay us for leave not taken - think I see the union being called in shortly .
