    RR - Love these doors hooks :D

    I love then too :T, but this is my wallpaper, and I have 2 cushions coming in the same material, its quite a smallish room, so I think I will need something really simple, I was thinking white ceramic, but can't find anything I like yet. Thanks for the suggestion though, I may be able to use these in my bedroom :D

    Sorry to hear about bad weather, we have had a lovely sunny day here, the first in ages, been quite warm but not what I would call normal August warm.

    Lucky you! It has poured down here all day, it's near gale force winds and we have had mega thunder and lightening!! :eek: My friend's house was hit by lightening (thankfully all are ok), her modem and PC have blown up, and the tv too! :eek:

    Try putting the showerhead in a plastic bag full of vinegar overnight then scrubbing it with an old toothbrush. (Tie the bag round the showerhead as you can't remove it).

    DD turned up for interview but person she was supposed to see was called away and the one who did see her seemed not to know about her so she is quite down. Tried telling her she was doing really well to get interviews. She has gone to London for the weekend so that should cheer her up.

    What sort of Welsh things Tru? What are the cards for?

    x

    A lady in a shop in Cardiff said she'd sell my cards (anything really, birthday, wedding, Christmas etc) and said some Welsh designs would sell well, dragons especially. But everything I come up with looks really cheesy :o
