font duly changed --- heaven only knows what happened, it looked fine when I posted it!! anyway, all sorted now.
The more people who want to play the better, and we'll try and keep costs/sizes of packages down so it's not too expensive, but we can sort all the details later. Remember, we have to the end of October to sign up as it were. Now not happening.......

just home from home group=essentialy a small group bible study but one that wants to be more outward looking. Really enjoyed it. Im up for a swap and think £10 is reasonable with postage on top - 5 doesent get much and 20 feels like too much. Im happy to post to france

sorry things frustrating socky.
Mum is fine, if frustrated!

We are having a lovely time with DS and DDIL-- She is trying to get her etsy shop up and running but it seems very complicated. Has anyone else got one and got any good tips?
We think DD2 must have forgotten how to count as we had a text at 4.00 a.m -- with the good news that she has got a job !!!!! Good news indeed but 8.00 would be a better time to get it -- Bless!!!!
Well I have now finished operation etsy for the time being as DDIL has got quite a bit of stock-- especially as it is taking forever to list.
So now I am going to start to think about C**** mas as I do love to make a lot of my presesnts. So that should keep me busy!
Well I hope things are a little drier Jean --- It must be driving you around the proverbial French bend.
Kathy -- I can hear from your post that your bend is even longer-- Hang on in there -- it will be wonderful.
Shaz---- I have a very glamourous picture of you in my mind -- I would love to be a bit taller!
PTB -- I will happily send you a few curly wurly crochet key rings for your fair --- I think they would be ideal pocket money gifts.
Margaret 54 -- Lovely to see you posting.
Mrs Twins-- I still can't get over the beauty of that seaside blanket. I think it is such a shame that Childrens Cancer wards can't have one-- Imagine the comfort it would bring. Maybe a special one loike that could be raffled or auctioned off for a particular cause close to your heart. I would be delighted to make a bid! Something else for that box like Jeans!
Kinsey -- Hi.Hope William is growing well and everything is well.
Mrs M -- Are you having a stall for your choirboys? Some wigglies could come your way too!
Shelley-- Lots of gentle thoughts to you and Mum.
Pippa -- Home soon!
PSSo -- Lots of love to you and your family. I think its about time the " aunties " had another scrummy photo!

Hi everyone. I'm still struggling with the connection and, when I do manage to get online, it's very slow, so I'm finding it very frustrating! What with that and the fact that my kitchen is in pieces while DH redesigns it (and makes a lot of it up as he goes along!) I'm not having a good week. The bonus is that the sun has come out after two days of real gloom, and it's like mid summer again.
What I really want is my kitchen back, my internet connection back up to speed and reliability, and my DH to finally finish the house and get out to work. Much as I love him, I could do with a break from all the dust, debris, and interruptions!
I've had barely any time to do any woolly stuff lately because I just seem to be clearing up all the time, so I'm not getting much done at all. With the cooler evenings, I had lots of things planned but it seems that I will have to wait a little longer to put the plans into action.
I haven't caught up with anyone's news recently because I keep getting disconnected. In fact, this is the second post I have written today but the last one just disappeared!
Anyway, I hope you are all keeping well and that the sun is shining wherever you are. DH has just stopped drilling into granite, so I think I'll take this opportunity of phoning the helpline again about my internet connection, before he starts drilling again!
Will try and call back later.

Odd things going on ---- where has my really long post about stuff, santa and school gone????
Confused! Upset and more than a bit miffed tbh. Seems we're not permitted to mention about giving things to each other, swapping etc which is why it's not there anymore (that'll teach me to read the rules first)!!
Forget everything I posted --- don't think I'll be back for a while.

evening all, had a totally lazy day and done nothing, and i mean nothing, and i've thoroughly enjoyed it.
kathy, hope the kitchen gets finished soon, and you get the internet connection sorted, (((hugs))), sounds like you need a hug after all the cleaning up and disruptions you had to put up with lately
chalky, great news that your dd got a job

Hi everyone
just a quick update
Mom is doing ok, We had a phone call on monday morning from my dad to say we needed to get over as mom was really poorly and needed to get the doctor and nurses out, and when we got there we was told she was going to pass away that day as she is really ill, so all the family was there and within about 4 hours she started to get better and put on a driver which we thought that she would still pass away and she made it through the night and the following day and night and on wednesday the driver came out as they was happy with her and she was doing so well, and she is still doing well today, it just proves she is a fighter and she is not going to let this cancer beat her. I have been telling her about all the messages you lot are sending her.
