    Hello all :j
    Well-another day of not being as organised as I ought to be mainly because our lad was running amok when he should have been out with his support worker ! Kids !!
    OH has given me another gravy tub to do something with..........not sure what yet.......I'm sure I had a list somewhere of stuff to do with tubs but blessed if I can find it............typical me !

    Did get around to starting on some handbag charms done with ribbons I'd seen on a blog..........good way of using up the odd bits of ribbon I'd got.
    Meetings all day tomorrow so not a lot wil get done.........must make up for it on Thursday...........set myself a timetable or something like school....................lol:rotfl:
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

    Evening all,

    Just wanted to say welcome to anyone new who I haven't spoken to already. I'm not very good at responding to everyone so please don't think I'm being weird or ignoring anyone. I read everyone's posts, but sometimes my head gets so full of the replies I want to make to some posts that I forget to comment on others!! lol

    Picked up my bits from Argos - friend in worked lent me £2 for the picture frames from the one Argos and my dad met me with my purse at the other! Happy with my purchases though.

    And stop talking about making things people - I'm so jealous! I have noooooooooooooo time to make things!! lol <sob>

    Hope everyone's having a nice evening!

    Hi girls,

    I had to laugh when I just caught up on the latest posts. You know how upset us ladies can get if presented with an iron or tea towels for a present - well, remember that as you read this excerpt from our Mary

    "OH has given me another gravy tub to do something with" :rotfl:

    Anyone else think this is hilarious?
