    Rainmac Well done on printing out all of the worksheets :) I am doing the grand plan which started yesterday so today I have got to deweed all of the front garden and power wash the front of the house.. YAY!! Then it's on to the car which was probably last cleaned inside about 6 months ago lol Did you just print some sheets or a plan?

    I have just realised that everyone is asking about the matchbox advent calenders.. I thought you was asking for ideas on any advents lol Here is the one I made last year:

    Advent+Inside.jpg

    Advent+Front.jpg

    I put chocolate coins and love hearts in the drawers. Not sure what I am going to put in there this year. Any ideas for things that are small enough?

    Help please - I have looked but can't find it on the internet. A pack of assorted 12 x 12 'gemstones cardstock' sorry don't know the make. Can someone tell me where I might find it? I saw a pack in a shop last week "um'd & ah'd" about it, didn't buy & now I want some! Don't really want to trail to the shops unless I have to.

    Choccy - sorry to here your op floored you - anaesthetic can take ages to get out of your system - at least with that the effect is temporary - spare a thought for oldies like me where dodgy memory is permanent!
