I will be travelling with rusty but if anyone would like my number please pm me. I won't be driving so will be able to reply more easily. last time I tried using rusty's phone...say no more!!

BunBun - LOL! I even have trouble with my own phone! - my excuse? only had it since Christmas so still learning!

Tomsmum - Thank you that looks clear enough for me to follow. I've made a copy and saved it so if you catch me asking again - ignore me!

gemm sorry to hear you are not feeling well. hope you feel better soon and def before Friday.

DTB congratulations on doing the run and sorry to hear your bad news.

rainmac congratulations too on doing the run

I have been making boxes this morning but the double sided tape I used obviously isn't strong enough and they have all fallen apart:mad: what do you use for making boxes?

I am looking forward to meeting the NEC15 on Friday:j

Try PVA or something like Anita's Tacky glue. When you've put the glue on and put the sides together, hold them together with a paperclip until the glue's dry. This is what they demonstrate on craft TV, I've used this method and it's worked for me.

Me neither:(, mind you I don't need to go to the NEC to encourage those naughty spendy elves! They came to stay over the weekend and ordered the Nellie Dies, Promarkers and a couple of punches (mind you I'm blaming Choccie for the Promarkers, honestly pointing out PM's for £1.50 what was I too do!):o:D

Can I join you in your cake fest? I'll bring a white chocolate, strawberry and fresh cream gateau and a nice Bailey's Truffle Cheesecake, topped with an assortment of finest Belgium chocolate:D

Have a fab time girls and I'm going to see if I can get a cheap travel lodge room for Nov and then Mr T can treat me to my ticket

Nearly forgot, hope everything goes OK tomorrow Rusty, my thoughts are with you.
