    Rainmac How on earth did you manage to make your text circular in Word please. Be gentle with me I'm a bit dim;)

    I too am pc dim and had to ask OH how to do it. It was something to do with Wordart I think but have just tried to have a go and can't replicate it. Let me ask him tonight and I'll let you know ;)

    Polly, so sorry to hear about your OH, hope he is ok, off to look at your new card...

    Rusty, your parcel came today, thank you SOOOO much, have taken a pic and will pop it on my blog later :D

    hels, many congrats to your sister, hope everything is well, have you had a cuddle yet? ;)

    craftygranny, I hardly ever make cards for OH's family as they don't appreciate them at all. I love the idea of sending a card blank, I dare you ;)

    Off to blogland now for a bit before picking up DS2 from playschool. He is staying for lunch for the first time today and he managed to break the zip on his lunchbag as we were standing at the doors waiting to go into the hall :rolleyes: Had to go and buy a new one, £9 in Matalan :eek: Better last him till he's at least 10 ;)

    Popped in Sainsbury's after Matalan and they have loads of stationery half price and cheaper. Sets of 3 mini pens for 49p (one each in black, blue and red). I picked up a GI Joe stationery set for £1.24, was £2.99 and a GI Joe pencil case for 89p. Also little sports water games for 39p, where you press a button and shoot balls upwards (remember them from when I was little). Also Crayola Erasable colouring pencils for 74p reduced from £2.??. Not bad, all for Advent/Xmas :D

    Wow you got some fabby bargains!! Think I need to try and get up there at some point and wander til I find bargains!!!

    I need a lunchbox for DS, he is using his old old one which is still in perfect condition but I always let him have a new one!!! Wonder where I can buy a Gforce one from?

    Bet your DS feels like a big boy now ;) hope you are using your free time wisely and well done on your win!!!! :D .....

    Glad your bits arrived safely. Hope you liked them :o

    Polly - Hope David is ok. As flourgirl says a car is just a lump of metal and can be replaced.

    I am so mad that is now 3 of us/our family in a week who has had accidents which haven't been out fault!!! I decided to stay in today just because it has been a week since mine and I am feeling quite funny about driving atm.

    Flourgirl - Not seen the LLB stuff up close or even used on cards, can't wait to see your creations!!

    Bunbun - Did you get my txt yesterday?? I wished DS a happy birthday!! ... glad he liked his card, did he get lots of lovely things?

    The stamp Polly has used on her latest card, can anyone tell me where it is from? or who it is by please?
