    COngrats to all the winners on here - what a talented bunch!

    Flourgirl - glad you had a good time. I know what you mean about cold nights - I never normally have to go in the night, so why do I need to every night at 3am when I'm camping???

    ALso - big apologie to Rusty - I just found your card in the pocket of my car - I am so flipping hopeless sometimes! Off to post office today.

    I'm going to attempt an everlasting card today - have got about 3 hours to myself this morning so hopefully that will be enough!

    Just flying on to say Dragonllew it may be me but I don't think the challenge is showing on the main site it just seems to show the winner of the how many followers challenge.

  • Right trying to do this from memory :rotfl:

    Rainmac The man at NEC gave it a few quick pushes, which is how i found it best to do. Ive also found that it depends what you are trying to emboss.. If i get a chance over the day i will have a play about and see if i can do a few examples. Might help someone somewhere with the punches ;)

    Flourgirl Glad to see you back.. Oh i wouldnt get up if it was that cold :o £6 for fish and chips seems about a standard price for Seaside fish and chips :eek:. Mum and Dad have a caravan in skegness and theres a gorgeous chippy there but its £5.75 for fish and chips. ( Absolutely gorgeous though )

    Glittermum Hope you have fun with the neverending card. When i made mine i found the hardest thing was actually decorating it, well it was the most time consuming. Cant wait to see your card.

    TomsMom Hope DS manages to finish the step then the nasty smell goes. Also hope that puter survives the move. At least you now have all your favorites saved. I remember when mine died a few years ago and i lost all favorites, photos and files :(. I try to back everything up now at least once a month.

    Hassy Well Done on getting all that work in the garden done :eek:. I really need to do mine or even plant my seeds for this year. With all this bad weather i just hadnt got round to it. Think im going to end up buying plant plugs this year :o

    Craftygranny Ooh hope you didnt miss the chance to say ...'Ooh can i buy more then ? :rotfl:'

    Well Done to ?? another winner.. Oooh how exciting.

    Sorry if ive missed anyone xx

    Welcome back Flourgirl Glad you had a good time. It's been cold here at night too - I even shut the window last night. My late FIL always used to wear a woolly bobble hat (without the bobble) at night when staying at the van as his hair was thinning. :)

    Craftygranny - Wjat a good idea to give the little stamps to nursery for little hands to manage. I bet the teachers were as pleased as the children.

    Such a Day.......

    DS1 who is 15....has his first GCSE today...actually sitting it now!!

    Got a phone call from him as he forgot his glasses.....methinks panic has set in..(well it has for me anymay)....Got to the school and the exam had started and the assessor met me at the door and said are you ******** mum? i said yes and he said thank you took the glasses and went inside!!

    Im so worried....he has studied, but finds it hard to put it on paper....aspergers......he does the black and white answer....he has a CA with him to prompt him and keep his attention focused...but im still worried!! He is doing 2 GCSEs a year early and Does the other 10 next year!!
    Please if anyone is religious in any way could you please say a wee prayer for him!!

    Mumoffour - Hugs for you and a wee prayer - though I'm bound to say on here we find wearing our pants inside out works as well. I'm sure your DS will be fine!
