Mad-Frog - let me know the postage and I will paypal you the cost. Thanks aot for this x
flourgirl - hope you dad recovers soon from his op and that your OH gets better soon.
thriftyscotslass - nice to see you posting. Glad things are going well for you.
ali.b.123 - I think that Creative Craft World is still the cheapest for Promarkers but maybe not the quickest!! It is not free postage but I think that the discount of 25% covered the postage if you spent enough money. Also there was a google checkout discount of £2.50 I think if you spent £15 excluding postage. I think the code was SUNSHINE - if I am wrong someone please correct me!!!!
melissa75 - Lou has replied to all of my emails and my telephone call which is great. I didn't know where the fault of my not receiving the pens lay at first because I didn't get any emails after ordering to advise that items had been despatched. Have suggested to Lou that it might be a good thing to send an email to let people know that their order has been despatched, that way we know that the fault lies with RM. Whilst I appreciate that she may have moved recently or had alot of orders I'm afraid I think that if you are running a business things like this cannot come into it - after all we are paying for the items!! That said Lou seems a very nice lady and a genuine person. I think I have just been unlucky that my parcel was lost by Royal Mail.

Thanks Melissa and PONR my DH says he feels a bit better tonight, he has just had a huge bowl of homemade lentil soup and a kit-kat

Love the Lili of the Valley Dies and the Magnolia stamps. I will try not to be tempted!

My Bigshot arrived today, got the starter pack with it, so managed to try it out. Was a bit shocked about the mark that was left on the cutting mat, but assumed this was normal. So now I need to buy some more dies (I'm sure OH didnt realise that!)

Rainmac - I'm looking for ovals too and squares, so hopefully someone will know where to get some cheap ones. Love the alphabet ones, am very tempted to get some.

Hope everyones ok - hugs to anyone who needs one.

Good to have you back amongst the fold, Thrifty and don't you just feel that everyones news is just getting a little better.

If it's Spellbinders Alphabets you're after look no further than here 'cos they is the main seller in the US. I bought one that cost me very little for all those dies. The lady that ikki recommends on her blog, Liz on Ebay is very reasonable too and free recorded postage. She ships the same day as the order is placed if it's early enough. I might be mistaken but I think it was Melissa who had a good seller although not a great choice

I bought Crafts Beautiful this month and there is a nice free event for anyone who is near to Rushden, Northants. It is on Saturday 26 June and Sunday 27 June at Colmans Craft Warehouse. There are lots of demonstrations and special offers including Martha Stewart punches (unboxed) half price from £4.99 - £9.99, Big Shot £50, Spellbinders Nestibilities 2 for £28.
