  • Unfortunately not - no matter how I tried I couldn't convince OH it involved raising my arm above my shoulder even if I did it kneeling down :rotfl:. PLus it's a lefthanded job and it's my right shoulder.
    Had just finished and the cat woke up for 5 mins shook herself and deposited fur blobs on the carpet :mad:
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Craftygranny,
    Shropshire? did i get your address wrong or did my parcel just fancy an outing!
    Your very kind but I do know I have alot to learn when it comes to making cards but I'll keep going in the hope that one day they will get better.

    So sorry to hear about alicia's cyst, poor little love, she's soooo brave.

    I'm so envious of all the ladies going to the NEC tomorrow but in this business
    it's hard to get away on Friday's or over weekends.

    I was tickled pink reading Caitlins descriptions of all the ladies, it's so funny how childrens minds work, but if I ever need a tiara for a night out I know that jenni is the lady to ask!!!!

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Soo know how that feels! We've got 2 loveable elderly fur making machines here - best not tell Gemma what happens when kittens grow up! - ours have even managed to shred the leather sofa we got because they'd wrecked all the fabric ones we tried.

    Think part of the post code wasn't right but postie said it should still have come here he said it took the scenic route. lol Kaitlyn has one on it's way must be coming via australia it's been on it's way for about 6 weeks . Hopefully it'll turn up after these silly strikes are over.

    She tickles me too with the descriptions she comes up with. mind you rainmac's coat and wellies would have been very handy here this afternoon. Daren't ask about saveapenny :rotfl:

  • Yey :jI have had my order of circle and scallop punches and some promarkers come. I think i should have bought more pro markers. i wonder if they will be a good price at the NEC. No stop thinking about it and tormenting yourself. I will be thinking of you all on the M1 as you pass my house grr! Just sorting out the challenge to post.
    :)Mummy to 2 wonderful boys :)
    Want to be fit for 30 not fat at 30
    but i want never gets!!!
  • I'm getting really excited about tomorrow now! (Sorry to those of you who can't make it :o).
    I've been catching up on CP, so I'll loiter outside the hall at 10.

    Craftygranny - I hope all goes well with Alicia next week. Kaitlyn would probably think I'm some sort of criminal. :rolleyes:

    MrsTidge - I love your new friends. :)
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)
