    :TCongratulations Bunbun :T

    Thanks for all your advice on the nestabilities, i'll start looking around for good prices. Has anyone ordered them from the States, and had any surcharges to pay on delivery? I promise this is the last question!
    2016 is the year I am going to find time for me, and cherish the time I spend with my friends and family.
    It is also time to save - Aim £4,000 - So far this year - £230/£4,000

    I ordered some of the frameabilities from an ebay seller in the states and didn't pay any surcharges but they took a month to arrive but I think it was the seller as they have quite a bit of bad feedback for slow delivery and other things I have ordered from the states arrived much quicker.

    well done BunBun on winning the challenge.:j

    Hello everyone,

    Sorry I haven't posted for a few weeks, I did my zip wire and life has just been preventing me from coming on here since.

    I did the zip wire - very scary but I was so pleased I did it. Here's the proof...

    I have lots to catch up on so you probably won't see me for aaother few weeks!

    Did anyone go to the craft fair at Alexandra Palace? I spent too much money...

    Thanks Flourgirl - i'll have a look, and if I buy from them will just have to justify the cost of my other half - i've already spent £75 this month :eek:. Oh well it saves me buy new shoes and clothes, and hiding crafty bits is easier in our house :rotfl:

    I think a few of us have used this seller on ebay. She posts things really quickly and there's free p&p on nesties. I've used her twice and will definitely buy from her again.

    Rusty - at least OH has his job now to pay for all these repairs! It sounds like that's the only bit of luck you've had for a while.

    I had my first appt at the job centre today; I've gone from being a student to unemployed. :( Time to dust off the CV and try to spend more time online filling out application forms!

    So lovely to see you back here, wishing you all of the luck in the world with your job hunting!!

    OH does has a job for now ... but things are becoming very uncertain again at the minute and he is taking everything one day at a time!! .... as for bad luck ... The dishwasher has broken tonight!!!!! I HATE WASHING UP!!!!!!! and breathe :rotfl:

    Melissa - lovely challenge thankyou for setting it

    Well done to BUNBUN2 :j ... and thankyou to salesadmin for setting the challenge

    Sal - Sorry to hear how you are feeling, Schools and colleges have a tendancy to make you feel like that by charging unreal amounts of money for trips!!! very unreasonable but I am sure your not so little one understands the reasons why!

    Craftygranny - Oooh thankyou! I like suprises and it is much needed this week lol ...

    LucyLu - Wow what an experience!! Did you enjoy it?? well done you!

    Welcome to all the newbies :D

    Flourgirl - Think I may have missed a post somewhere but saw someone mention somthing about your foot/leg/toe? what have you done? or did I dream it?

    and I am sorry but I can't remember the rest!!!


    I feel like such a drama queen!! ... I just want a nice normal life!!

    Thanks for the recommendation JHB - i'm watching some of the items now, but have a nasty feeling it won't be long until they are put in my basket and checked out by the crafty elves :rotfl::rotfl:

    For anyone who likes Dustin Pike's images (freebies every Wednesday), he has some great blog candy on offer. It involves sending him 5 or 6 cards (to the US, to raise money fr a children's medical centre). In return, every entrant gets a link to 30 of his digital images. One winner will get a hand-sculpted dragon ornament.
