Evening all!
Hugs to all the poorlys and to those looking after poorlys - there seem to be a lot of you around at the moment
Extra big hugs to anyone dealing with s*1te (even the real stuff Thrifty :rotfl:)

Thank you Mr Marg (or should that be Homer:D) for picking me as the winner :T

Soooooooooo here's the new challenge..................... expect you're thinking it will be bears - well it could be as it's

I spy with my little eye 3 things beginning with "B"

Here's a few suggestions - bear (of course), blue, tree (has branches), boat, brad, bow (or ribbon), flowers (blooms or blossoms). Anything can count as long as you can convince me it begins with B

So if you have a brown bunny in a bubble bath on a blue background you have 5 (backing paper doesn't count unless it's a colour starting with blue or it has something beginning with b on it)

There will be a small prize for the winner plus an extra one for the person who can make a card with the most Bs on it

It'll run till Monday 10th and I'll pick the winners on the Tuesday

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Love it! Thanks padster!!

thanks for the new challenge padster, you do like to 'challenge' us!

anyone remember post pals? just been catching up on my TV viewings from the past few weeks and there was a bit at the end of Russel Howards Good News (comedy programme, a bit like 'have I got news for you) with a segment about the founder of Post pals (a genuine segment, not taking the P) - and it featured some of the children who had been receving letters and post. It just reminded me about the cause and I thought it was a great way of getting more publicity for them, even though it seemed like a bit of a random programme to feature it on!

Evening ladies. Just been catching up.

Padster and Dragonllew - well done :T

Rusty - Big hugs to you, so sorry your Dr couldn't do more. I hope your pain eases soon and good luck with the CD.

Craftygranny - I can't find the post but it was CraftyJuJu's postcode that was wrong, I made a note on my sheet, it should be LZ at the end.

I spent the morning making a batch of soup and some spaghetti sauces (bol for OH, veggie for me) so freezer stocked up now. The afternoon I spent in the garden, have taken some photos and updated my gardening blog for those who are following it.

I'm just about to blog a card I've made and will put a pic of the stash I bought yesterday.
