Yes they are called Pong drops...If you want to try them I can pick you soem up next tme I go there...Or Im sure one of the girls will pick you some up. Last time I went over I got the christmas one, smells just like christmas pud but the flowery ones are realy nice for ladies card. The only one I didnt like was the car leather for mens card, It smelt like rotten sock but that is a man smell anyway ...lol
im sure your prize willbe lovely

these sound fab, I must get some! can you remember how much they are?

I wont be getting the rotten socks one though :rotfl:

saveapenny

Gemma...£3.99 each but they will last for ages they come in a little bottle with a dropper
The only thing I have found you cant use them on is printed stuff, I use them on the first layer of decoupage or rub them on the inside of the card so you get a good wiff when its opened
They are so new and I cant find anyone else selling them I bet she will sell out realy quick

MrsTidge

POng drops sound very intriguing.

Rainmac, no names yet - I didn't want to get too attached seeing as I am hoping to sell them!! I need to make at least 10 more, I took my 1st one into work and people went mad for them! Good job they only take about an hour to make.

Just had to pick DS1 up from school, still a bit poorly. Good job DH was on childcare duties tomorrow!

Gemm85

ooh they sound great, scented cards would be lovely!!

craftygranny

saveapenny the baby one sounds lovely . Tell them they need a website lol. Don't think i'd rush off looking for the rotten sock one either.

Just a little update Alicia had to see the doctors yesterday and she has to be admitted to hospital for 5 days from wednesday . They found she has a cyst which needs to be drained. just have to pray she doesn't pick up any infections.

One good thing thomas and joshua will be staying with me so lots more snowman soup etc to be made . They really enjoy it . Not that i encourage child labour. well not much.

At the moment I can only think of a tiny consolation for myself at missing tomorrow & that is the lbs I wont put on eating all the goodies you're all taking!! sob sob! DH did just say I'm doing you all a kindness in 'cos I wont be coughing & infecting you all with my horrid cold.

Rusty - hope you have a good journey back from Aberdeen.

Mrs Tidge - Love your new friends!:T

Padster - Are you sure Hoovering isn't on the banned list too?

Craftygranny - Well done on your win - if it's not so good you may be able to sell it? I think Kaitlyn is brilliant to describe us so & I'm already picturing folk the way she said. Give her a hug from me please.

Talking of Hugs - Melissa your friendship card arrived just now - it's beautiful, and also all the lovely goodies you sent - Thank you so much (((HUGS))) for you.

Gemma - Talking of smell have you tried your kittens with Catnip? Neither of ours respond but I've seen others go mad for it. Hope they're settling in OK.
