    JHB MSc, I am so proud of you!!! :beer:

    Rusty, doctors are so carp, everything is a blinking virus isn't it. So glad Miss M threw up at the doctors, serves them right!!! Glad you've both had a bit of sleep, they say it's the best healer don't they x

    Choccy, missus I really feel for you damaging your tooth. I too am terrified of dentists but am feeling loads better after having my tooth taken out and it not hurting at all. I will be with you holding your hand in a virtual way x

    Mary, good luck with version 2 of your card ;)

    Flourgirl, I made another fruit cake last night and my mum and dad came round today and had some. They are blinking fussy at the best of times but both loved it :j

    I will do the draw for the Crafty Place card swap on Friday (theme is Friendship). If anyone wants to enter please do so here ;)

    It's my birthday next month and my mum and dad asked what I'd like and I asked for a subscription to Crafts Beautiful. I'll get the magazine every month and a fabby looking Fiskars paper trimmer :D Now I need ideas of what they can buy for Xmas, my mum keeps asking if I want a dressing gown and I don't :rolleyes:, I want craft stuff but not sure what???
    :wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:

    rainmac - version 2 - success !!!!!!!!:j:j:j:j

    And on top of that I've sorted out sons girlfriends christmas and birthday boxes..............her birthday one is all done and all tied up with ribbon.............just waiting for the little robins to pop in robin breakfast pot in the christmas one and that'll be done as well.
    I think I'm about done then apart from an odd little thing that I might need to fill a gap (might copy your pegs rainmac...............lol)
    Maybe now I'll get to clear my desk, hang some bits on the wall I had bought me for my birthday and generally sort 'stuff' out............:j

    Any ideas I spot now I'll keep for next year.............:rolleyes:
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

    Louby-Lou-Lou - congrats on your good news. Maybe you could find some cheap blocks on ebay. I can't believe you're 30 weeks already - you must be so excited!

    Jailhousebabe - huge congratulations - are you going out to celebrate?

    Polly - beautiful card - I'm sure your OH loved it! Happy anniversary for yesterday!

    Chocolate.orange - hope you feel better soon.

    Rainmac - my mum and sister always struggle when it comes to buying me presents. My Mum doesn't have access to the internet otherwise I'd ask her to buy me some crafty bits. I normally pick something cheap from QVC craft wise and she gets me that. This year I've mentioned that I want a cheap mini sewing machine simply to use on my cards.

    JHB - huge congratulations to you.:j:j:j:j:j

    Rusty - sorry to hear about Maddison -hope she gets better very soon.

    Choccy - love your cards - but ouch about the tooth!

    Louby - congrats on not having diabetes - can't believe you're doing a craft fair in November though - you brave woman!

    Just not got much time for posting or crafting at the moment - think I've signed up to everything over at CP though.

    Have a great evening everyone.
