    Rusty no it hasn't got here yet but postie reckons stuff piled up all round the country. Did you get yours this morning ? That stamp is fab i bought kaitlyn that set as she loves the mittens and polar bear too. She got the 2 new sets too from mod scraps when melissa posted a link with free postage.

    JHB I have the mangas if you want some stamping to play with while you wait for them to come in again.


    No they didn't arrive yesterday sorry .... but it has arrived this morning whilst I was at work :j :j yummy!!! Thankyou ever so much!! :D

    Dawn - Beautiful layouts!! I love them both and what a lovely idea!

    Rainmac - How short did you go?? ... thankyou mrs, will reply to PM :)

    Sally - added a couple of ideas on your thread, so go have a nosey x

    Well the bad news of today is that the fuel pump for my car is actually more expensive that first thought. For a genuine vauxhall part it is £2100 :eek: I only paid £2300 for the car 2 years ago ... OH is considering holding out for them to change the date on the scrappage scheme then get rid of mine!! :( I aint happy!!! .... I HAVE to have a car before November cause I WILL BE AT THE NEC!!!

    Another lovely suprise which I had forgotten about was all my lovely charms, flowers and gems from that company melissa posted the link to ... Wow the charms are so beautiful and I love the flowers aswell!! Never used Gems in my life but now have no excuse!

    £2100 :eek: :eek: :eek: Better start walking to the NEC now ;) I dread to think how much a train would be from where you live. Make sure you do the lottery tomorrow, win and buy a new car. If I win, I'll buy you a new car. What do you fancy?

    My hair isn't much shorter but to me feels lighter and neater so I'm happy. Trying to sort of grow it but keep getting fed up of it and having it cut off :rolleyes:

    I have finished my first batch of pegs... http://rainmacsplace.blogspot.com/ What do you think???

    Rusty - ouch! 2 grand? You must be livid! :mad:
    Rainmac - you don't do things by halves! Love the pegs and bags, I hope they sell well.

    Big girlie night out tomorrow, and I can't stop sneezing and blowing my nose. :(
    Oh well, I'm enjoying my life of leisure at the mo - I've walked the dogs twice today, filled out a job application online, and just about to colour in some printed digital images for cards. I'm very tempted to shoot off to Wilkinsons for some clothes pegs though after being inspired by flyingpig and rainmac. ;)
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    Can I have any car?? .... erm?? probably a Nissan Skyline GTR (newest one ;))

    Bet your hair looks lovely ;)

    Your pegs are beautiful!!! :) as is everything you do!

    I have been crafting this afternoon ... well for the last hour! I have so far made 2 coasters!! need to keep cracking on! I have swaps to sort and deal with!

    JHB - I don't know how I feel, I guess I knew one day something would go wrong as it has been a spot on car for the last 2 years!! ... just quite upsetting that I may not drive it again if that makes sense?? Hope you have a fab night out ;)

    Craftygranny - :j :j yes please!! do you have a portable charger? if so can I borrow it for the NEC aswell ... :rotfl: it is only about 300 or so miles away! :) Have you been out on it yet?

    sally - had a look but don't think I can add anything thats not been covered............good luck:j

    rainmac - I just knew before I looked that your pegs would be brilliant :T as is everything you seem to do

    Well, I've had a c**p morning.........should have stayed at home.
    Went to Tescos -our branch has nothing much in the sweets line........got what I wanted from somerfield in the end. The shop I was going to get my little robins from, she hadn't sorted them out yet -I forgot to take some photos I wanted copying, forgot to get sticky pad wall hangers I needed and then when I got home and n halfway making a little horlicks sachet holder my glue ran out:eek:
    Time to give up I thought:eek:

    Tomorrow is another day............hopefully a better one..........ho hum:rotfl:
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !
