Padster Postie is on his way, just ran accross the road when I saw him collecting from the box and he waited for me. I hate to think what I looked like running towards him :eek: he must have thought it was worth it!! Good job I had my new bra on :rotfl:

Sorry Juju, when I wrote 30th June I meant 30th May so I do have the right date It's a friend of mine's birthday today and she is having her 20 week pregnancy scan tomorrow, what a birthday present, they want to find out if it is a boy or a girl, makes me broody for another... but then I remember all the sleepless nights, nappies, all the washing... and funnily the broodiness stops

lol...thats how I am now proved I'm not getting broody anymore when I see my baby neice Lily, I enjoy the cuddle with her but it doesn't make me have the feeling of wanting more....like you said I think about the sleepless nights, night feeds & I'm so glad mine are passed that now

Rusty - wow those invites look ace...can I come please if only I lived nearer x

Rusty that invitation is fantastic!! I'll be there

Hogshead sorry I forgot to say your card is fabulous. I sort of got the idea of how to make one like that its just the sizing I messed up. Will have another go sometime.

funny cause I said to OH that I would have invited you lot if you all lived nearer!!!

Agreed flourgirl, we could always keep choccy in business though?

Right question time I have pretzel bags 2"x9" and I have green, blue and orange smarties, how to I keep the topper attatched to the top of the bag and also how is best to roll the top down on the bag? do I use a stapeler and then glue dots?? (Maybe Flourgirl could help as you have made loads!)

Rusty - Love the Diego invites, she'll have a great time.

I'm with the rest of you that are very not broody. I see friends that are pregnant and think thank goodness I'm through that. Babies are absolutely gorgeous and I love them but also love the giving back part even more!

I'e updated my blog with the stash of cards I made last week.

Rusty I would fill the pretzel bag turn over the top and just stick with sellotape then sandwich the top inbetween a folded nestie label you could either staple or use DST to attatch to the bag. When the postie has been tomorrow it should be more clear
