    Hi Skint - sorry missed your post yesterday. I am more than willing to be a guinea pig for a postage test :) Then I can give a real review on nixi speak too :) As soon as you are ready let me know and I'll pm you my address. Yay!!

    Yes all dribblers can enter the comp :) There will be no preferential treatment and all prizes are drawn at random so I don't see that a friends can't enter!!!
    (I allocate everyone a number and draw the winning number so I don't know who has won until I match the number to the name :) so there is not way of cheating anyway!! ) So good luck everyone :)

    xx

    WELL DONE JO!!!!!!! :j:j:j
    -that's brilliant! So pleased for you :):):)

    -wedding was unexpectedly brilliant, we met some great people and i drank from 12 onwards til about half nine, stuffed my face with gorgeous food and had a right laugh and nearly cried when she did her first dance as they are so obviously loved-up and it was lovely. Back later on when kids are in bed, hugs to all and hope you're all well today xx xx

    Jo, what hours will you be doing, and what will the job involve? So tired tonight but DD1 had a nap earlier and isn't quite settled yet. Hey Jo, I tried bringng the little one down after putting the other two to bed, she had about ten minutes then I took her up and she lay down with no fuss at all, even though Dd1 was talking to me! Woop woop and thank you :) xx

    I'm a bit shattered too Hales. Sounds like you have enjoyed your holiday though. Southport is not too far away from me.
    Paula its 10 hours a week flexible. Will explain a bit more when I'm not being talked at by very chatty DS inbetween him eating honey butties.lol.
    glad DD2 settled. I think the biggest thing they pick up on is our anxiety and resistance. once we let go of ours they often let go of theirs. Really glad you are feeling happy as well as tired.

    thanks for that jo - I'm not afraid of competition by any means. I WILL NOT GIVE UP! I Just need to change my marketing plan a bit!! I am still planning to sell on amazon, it just makes it a little harder when the other company is top of the listing rather than me!!!

    I think it was complete and utter coincidence that they got there first.... I kept the product off here so hey ho...

    Em - trifle factory :). I got sacked from a bakery (well factory really). I was supposed to be making airline deserts.

    Skint - was it you that mentioned about little jam jars? I too am planning for xmas!!

    Anyone know where I can get little bottles? I am planning to do flavoured vodka for my brother in law.... just need little bottles for the different flavours.....

    off show shopping with the kids today :( wish me luck!

    Hi guys, new to this thread but was just browsing with interest. I was just wondering what the jam jar theme was about? Xmas planning too on my part.

    On the subject of little bottles for vodka, have you tried posting a wanted mail on Freegle? I'm planning winter chutney and chilli jelly for some xmas presents this year and have got a pile of jars from Freegle for them. I know I'll have to buy the ingerdients but hoping I can sell a few jars at work (asusming it's edible lol!) to help cover the costs. You could prob jazz the bottles up a bit with some ribbon or something from a sewing or craft shop (very Gok Wan :rotfl:)
