Good morning!

:j:j:j Well done our latest winners!

Great news about your new job rainmac, it doesn't matter how or if you spend your wages it's the independence it brings that matters. OMG! that sounds very Womens Lib.

Artydoll - great challenge thanks flad your feeling a bit better.

I agree with the blinkie wording choice.

Yep that's fine, though you have to understand it will need an element to be able to be made in to a flashing blinkie, if you get my drift, so I don't know what you had in mind? Either flashing text would work, so the first part could say 'MSE Challenge Winner' and then it could flash to '#1 {or whatever} and I could even put their name on it so it can never be claimed by anyone else? OR it could just have a flashy border?
Personally, I think the first option is better.

Soulie Sorry I snipped you. Yeah I agree the first option would be better. I had a go at it last night but it was rubbish - so I'll have another go today. What about making the challenge text flash "Red and Green Challenge" (thanks Artydoll) and I like the idea of putting the persons name on it.

Rainmac - Congrats on your extra craft cash

I ordered my promarkers last night - thanks for the link Fifi. 15 and a blender pen for £16.50 (bargain) are hopefully winging their way to me as we speak.

DH is from south wales Pembroke Dock he stillhas lots of family there although we live in Bournemouth now. Glad you are feeling better.

Well done Rainmac on your little job I'm sure you can use some of it for crafty buying. I do a little cleaning job once a week and that money is my crafty budget for the month.

Well done to the Winners:T

I like the idea of the blinkie as well, I like the first option as well.

It was pouring with rain here at 6.30 this morning when I had to go pick DH up from work but has stopped now.

Rainmac Congratulations on your little job, its nice to earn your own bit of pocket money.

We have had such a busy day today in the shop, takings up 25% on last Saturday, doubt our comission will go up though!

Congratulations to our recent winners

DH is just setting up the web cam so our GD in Plymouth can talk to us and remember what we look like! I can't believe she is nearly 3.

Love the idea of a blinkie

Afternoon ladies, at work all day yesterday so couldnt get a good chance to come on but just to say I took a chance and ordered one of the £25 goody boxes on Thur lunchtime from Sarahs and it came yesterday morning - that was quick!!!! some nice stuff in and some I am thinking hmm will I use it.:o Just been doing our budget as well - oh good grief considering I was on a stash ban I still owed the kitty about £30 was on the cc so must have been from the tail end of the previous month:eek: I really need to stop spending!!!!

However, I sent my name in to try and win weekend passes to the Harrogate papercrafts fair and I won two - they came this morning so that has saved us about £8.00 - that can go towards stash!!!:rotfl:

Congrats to the latest winners:T:T
