    A plea re stars:

    Toots does a sterling job looking after the stars (with soappie as her assistant) but I have noticed whilst skimming this last couple of days that some people are not SHOUTING IN RED when they are claiming stars. As we all know this thread moves quickly and we need to make toots job as easy as possible. So can you all please make sure you BOLD and RED your star claims so that toots can see you easily and so that you get your stars for all your hard efforts.

    I never trouble toots with star claims as I never seem to complete everything on the lists BUT I am happy with my dot2dotting so all is good :D

    Copied across from the old thread as a reminder for all ;)

    Hi toots - I did all five days - but I must have missed posting one of them!

    Please can I have a smiley??!!!

    I can't be in this week - well, I'll do a bit next weekend if I'm up to it - although I'll also have a week's lessons to sort as well!!

    Have a lovely week ladies, and look after yourselves!
