I have just treated myself to the plain circle nesties to match the scalloped ones I already have. £16,95 free p&p. I am hoping DH will buy me the ovals at the end of the month.

Rusty, so sorry you are poorly too and DS, no fun at all :grouphug: :kisses3:

Flourgirl, haven't seen your coconut cake recipe but will go looking, just the thought of it is delicious Love those freebie printables :j

Furrypig, you have me in the stash swap, may not be able to post your stash till next week, hope that's ok

Me and DS2 were out this morning to the bank, you should have seen the queue :rolleyes:, Tesco and Wilkos (got some fabby Create and Craft scissors really cheap) and then to collect a parcel that couldn't be delivered last week because we were out - I had forgotten about it . Then home to clean bathrooms (our house has 3 bedrooms and 3 toilets, crazy ), do the washing, tidy up DS1's very untidy bedroom and make chicken nuggets for tea as DS1 has a friend back after school and that's what he had asked to have. I was going to make a pudding too but can't be bothered so they can have yogurt and fruit . I also went to Next on way back from Tesco and bought a top and a new bag, spent nearly £60 which is very unlike me but we are going out for dinner on Saturday with friends so thought I should have something new. We haven't been out for a meal without the boys for months and months (probably over a year to be honest) so I intend to enjoy it

Ali, I'm not sure about a Cuttlebug? As I don't have a craft room or craft area and have to drag my stash out everytime I make bits I think it would be too much like hard work and it would get left in the cupboard??? What I need to do is borrow one with loads of folders and nesties for a month and see how I get on before buying one

Hi all
Some good freebies on that link flourgirl -thanks.

Much of a 'nothing' day and not what I'd planned at all.
Meeting with support worker I'd forgot about till last night :eek: so that took some time but did manage to make cupcake case for friends bedsocks -notebook I'd covered a while back looked really boring so I've peeled off the paper to start again -make ideal sketch book for sons girlfriend -found the ideal paper for her (thanks melissa:j)
Trouble is it's a job to get all the old paper off..........its a firm hard back book so I'm thinking of fine sandpaper to get off the remainder...........hope I don't wreck it......:rolleyes:

Recipe here Rainmac.
We live in a 2 bedroomed bungalow with 2 bathrooms, the main bathroom is bigger than the kitchen stoopid builder

Just made 5 more Christmas cards so total now is 40, 10 more and I'm done! I have a banging headache at the moment, probably due to the fact I have been up since 3.30am and the joiner has been drilling and sawin g again all day and its starting to get on my nerves Quick tea tonight of home-made veg soup and home-made bread, was going to make a crumble but can't be bothered so just stewed fruit and custard!
