Well done Mumof4 son:T:T:T:T
DTB sorry but "whats meant for you wont go past you" have a good spend and cheer yourself up
Flourgirl how dozy can you get? well as dozy as me too. I forgot to enter as well shall we do a dozy persons swap between us?

We had a wonderful day today -not- OH went to the DIY shop and dumped his purchaces on the kitchen table the bag split and onto the floor slamed a tin of VARNISH dark brown external varnish and it rolled and the lid was off and my kitchen tiles were covered for about 3 feet x 6 feet:mad::mad::mad::mad: it took us 3 rolls of kitchen paper to suck up the gunk then we washed the floor then we realized that water and varnish left a very sticky surface so we used a whole bottle of turps then we scrubbed the floor again. Thats my workout for the week done, and OH is knackered
never mind it did come out and I suppose it could have been carpet:eek::eek:
Off to blog hop

Congratulations on your win ******* - we are so on a roll with all the winning later, long may it continue, as I think all the creations we all make are fab!

Welcome home Flourgirl, glad you had a good time away, shame it was cold at night. Nothing like trying to stay warm in a caravan, we camp a lot and experience the same problem.

Have a fab time away AliB and TiredMom.

DTB - really sorry you didn't get the job, something bigger and better will come along for you.

Rusty - big hugs to you - families are always difficult at times, just take a deep breath and think what a fab OH and kids you have. I too have a bag sealer, that I got in Lidl a while ago, so if you want me to send it to you to borrow just give me a shout. It is pretty good on cellophane bags, my problem with it is that I can pull the bag through it as it is sealing straight:o

Lyndach - hugs to you for the way you are feeling at the moment - it is always hard going back to work after maternity leave.

OAP - sorry you had to clear up varnish - it is the kind of thing my OH would do, and then tell me it was my fault and that I had to clear it up, at least your OH helped clear up the mess.

Glad the exam went well for your DS Mumoffour.

Thank you - **bows** is pretty easy to win when you're the only entrant though :rotfl: I also had a win on Paper Sundaes the other week but didn't realise it was me at first as they'd put my real name in the list

Sorry you didn't get the job DTB - hope the knives didn't leave any mess (I guess you work with a lot of women) but OAP and Mr OAP will be there shortly as they seem to be the experts

Welcome back Flourgirl - have a great time Ali
Glad DS got on ok Mumoffour fortunately I have a few years before that sort of trauma - it was alwasy results day that used to do me I didn't bother about the exams at all

Have blogged my Music challenge card - guess what's on it?????
The prizes for the B challenge have arrived just need to get my bum in gear to get them to the post office plus I got a fabby bracelet from Gemma today as well

Well I'm not getting any cardmaking done lately. Have been sewing this week instead. Made some heart door hangers which are on my blog. Just cutting out some more to do now!! Takes ages as I stitch by hand!!

Congratulations to all winners, well done.:T:T
Rusty - glad you got the card. The backing paper was actually a wallpaper sample that I tore off at Focus!!!! I loved it and thought that it would be great for a card!!
Wishfulcomper - hope your op went ok.
mumoffour - I have a Folksy shop but haven't sold anything on it yet. Not sure how good Folksy is, seems to be slow to be honest and they have increased their fees recently.
wanna-b-rich - my card mojo has gone also but I am keeping my fingers busy sewing and making jewellery instead!!
Scatty Jan - hope another nice house comes your way soon. Are you only looking in Thornbury??
ali.b - have a great week away.
Tired Mom - have a good time at the caravan.
DTB - sorry to hear you didn't get the job you wanted. Hope something better turns up for you x

Wow - such alot to catch up on - I did a blog hop this afternoon as well!!!

Hope anyone that is in pain or not feeling 100% feels better soon.

That's a shame, hope you find something else that you like. There seems to be quite a few for sale at the moment. I'm on the outskirts of Bristol so it comes under South Glos and I see lots of 'For Sale' signs around!
