    thanks Gemm, in our town they have a shop which sells pretty much everything I just go there for my craft bits and bobs! it's called buyology not sure it's a national chain or not!

    Just gave my OH 2 options a visit to hobbycraft tomorrow or I order online with his card! £16.oo later on the Joanna Sheen website!!!

    rusty I went to imag-e-nation in Washington today. it is just round the corner from Dainty supplies. I went to buy double sided tape as I have used so much this week end! they didn't have the packs of 5 for £1 they are waiting for more stock...from China!!
    I bought the forever friends christmas set and a cutting mat (and the tape!!)
    and next door they have a sweet shop with loads of sweets in jars!
