    Hello Tixy, Solvent, Nic, stand by your beds for bumping duty!

    Reporting for duty, sir!!

    Morning all
    It's a beautiful sunny day here today and feels as though spring is in the air.... until the freezing temperatures arrive later in the week, of course:(

    Hope everyone is well today?
    :) The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time :)

    Morning all

    A full set of medals is bad..it shows that I have an addiction:eek:

    According to the met office, the first day of spring was yesterday, lots of sunshine here today though and no snow:j

    Man came at 8am to sort out sink - the gubbins wasnt put in properly and the pipes keep dropping because they used grease to put them together - one industrial plunger later and a bit of fiddling and all is now well. Washing up now done:D

    Suitcase nearly packed and I sent off an assignment this morning - the first one since December:eek: Am breakfasting tomorrow and need to tidy flat in the afternoon as my accountant is coming round on Thursday:eek: Tried playing with my bomboniere machine yesterday - have done 2 but not happy with them really, they look ok but well, y'know:o

    i am assuming of course that a bonboniere machine makes little sweetie parcels for weddings? If not, then my last post will look rather silly! (What's new, she says...)

    Horace I think I may have misunderstood - I had it in mind you were making the sweets to go inside the favours - I think I have realised you are actually making the boxes/wrapping that you put the sweets in. Is that right?
    Had you been making sweets I was going to offer myself as am offical taster but if its alright with you I don't fancy eating cardboard/materials or whatever other materials you are using!

    BUMP

    Oh how funny I've just seen Nargle and Numpty's posts as well! We obviously haven't been to enough weddings guys!
