How many days would it take Rusty to get from Northumberland to Birmingham on the scooter??? Just done a quick route map on theaa.com and it's approx 440 miles round trip :eek:

So glad you got one craftygranny

223.9 miles one way, thats including de touring to Bunbuns and then Choccys!! ... so yeah just short of 450 miles in a day

Melissa - I've just come home to the most beautiful swing card I've ever seen. Thank you so very much.

Yikes Rusty - that's one heck of a bill - can you take passengers on Craftygranny's scooter?

Rainmac - just a couple of pegs then?!

Sally - go for it. I've found fairs fun even if not always that lucrative!


JHB - nice to see you back.

Marg - sorry about your rubbish morning -as you say tomorrow should be better!
I've just been invited to a Stampin Up party next week - could be an expensive night! Must be strong....

Well I was thinking I could make bunbun stand on the back, then sit craftygranny on my lap, then put choccy in the basket on the front! :rotfl:

I've been to a meeting this morning for DS2's preschool about their Christmas fair and I sort of volunteered to organise getting raffle prizes :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:. The lady that did it last year raised over £1000 and had fantastic prizes such as a brand new Sat Nav. I've told them not to hold their breath for me to do as well

Rainmac - I don't know if it's any use to you as a prize, but I've just been having a clear-out and found a CCTV system. It's brand new and boxed (cost me a out £20 at Macro a few years back). It's a small camera with a long lead and scart connection, so you'd plug it into a tv and record from there. You can also switch channels on tv to see outside, I think. Anyway, it's yours if you want it (I can take a photo if you want to look at it first) x

If you are looking to get shot of it, sell it on ebay and use the money to buy some lovely stamps I would feel very cheeky taking something from you when you could make money on it so please do that. Thank you so much for the lovely thought though x

Craftygranny - a big thank you to you and Kaitlyn for my delicious sweets and crafty place swaps. Your ATC and fat page was fabulous and the sweets didn't last long! I hope you are having fun on your scooter.

Jailhousebabe - I've entered to win a few times on that woman's blog - I don't know how she can afford to give so much away.

Dawnteabag - gorgeous layouts - I love those cute birds!

Rainmac - your pegs are lovely - ignore your OH.

Rusty - sorry about your bad news.

Mrs. Tidge - I'm glad that it arrived and that you like it!

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

ohhh they are so pretty!! I am still waiting for my magnets, managed to get some pegs from wilkos the other day!

Rusty - I think Stampin Up is American - basically it's like a tupperware party (how old does that make me sound!) with crafty stuff. I think it's quite expensive but hopefully there might be a good deal on offer. It'll be a good chance to maybe meet some like minded peope though.
