    I'm really struggling to get through this thread so I'm up to date!
    I'm way behind on all the challenges but keen to join in.....roll on half term.
    I'm sure some of my skills could be of use to people here and will pm people as I gradually catch up.
    Thanks to all on the thread for the inspiration and MG I will PM about helping out where I can!

    aww thankyou, After all the help I have had here the last few weeks, the least I can do is help make some cards :)

    Has anyone received any parcels from me today?

    Me, me, me :j:j:j

    Infact I got two parcels today, one from you and one from MG :D

    Claire - the earrings are lovely, can't wait until 1st December when I can start wearing them :cool:

    MG - Books look fab but I have only had a quick scan. Hope to get them read over the next week or so and then I can decide who will get the most use out of them. Loved the special message too :T

    Hi All,

    Well, have listed several items on e-bay and am hopeful for some good bids this week. I have continued de-cluttering - not only as part of the e-bay listing but also in letting go of some things that I accept are no longer so important in my life. This has had the welcome affect of making me feel a little 'lighter' - will feel loads better when all cupboards and spaces have been emptied and evaluated before essentials being returned. I am also sorting out paperwork just to make sure I am only storing the important stuff. :cool:

    mg - I am going to mind-map the book I am currently writing, if I could please ask - would you recommend the mind map being done with a branch for each chapter or a mind map with a branch for characters, themes, plots etc. or perhaps 2 mind maps :o. Any advice is much appreciated :D

    claire - did I pm you re. me distributing some leaftlets for you? I am going to place my order for ear-rings tomorrow hopefully. I am just awaiting some cash to put into my account :o Last weeks car bill etc. has left me with no spare funds when I should have had ample excess :(

    crickett - well done on the presentation, am sure you rocked!

    Night everyone x

    Well done! It was about time, young lady.

    So there! Whoever bet just won.

    On a more serious note - good work but balance is the mastery. You need at least some foxes around you to watch your back.

    I am very pleased about the Nobel as well - you know that the Research Councils refused him and his collaborator research funding to work on human fertility (in 1971)? This actually support the hedghog doesn't it? Everyone in the science establishment said - 'not worth it' and than - a big, fat, top prize.

    Also if his research was not a success I won't have Little Boy, would I?

    Tired and slightly drunk I am - so off to rest.
