    I'm excited too :j

    If it's not too difficult, I could make some with the kids at school. Only problem is, I hate balloons :rolleyes:

    Good luck with it. Let me know how it goes :T
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Thank goodness for that.

    I must be the only person who works with kids and has an unexplainable fear of balloons :o

    Who are you calling a freak :eek:

    You hate 5ps, but they dont scare you.

    My kids have never had balloons in the house. They think it's because the dog would be scared :D

    OK - you send me all your 5p's & I'll send you all my earwigs cos I hate them (nasty things, crawl in your ear & eat your brain.... according to my cousin 40 yrs ago. Gee, thanks Ian!!!)

    erm you, you balloon fearing freak!

    They do scare me, with their teeny tiny-ness. And with always hiding in the corners of purses etc. Taunting you from the stitching, saying yes you have money but you cant HAVE the money!

    I feel some blackmailing potential there!
