    I am still waiting for OH to get home, he will pick DSD up on way. Am also happy that my windows have not been put in....wasn't joking when I said the person I upset was nasty.....he's one of the local thugs.

    Think I may open a bottle of wine, cheers all xxxx

    Brill socks Csarina, well done!!

    Dazi that must be horrible. We have had our car vandalised in the past, but the thought of someone attacking your home must be scary. Make sure its a large one! :beer:

    The socks look great csarina, hubby;s Mum is 84 and cant go out so she sits knitting socks all day for him, he now has 67 new pairs in a box!!!!! We dont have the heart to say he doesn't need anymore but I am sure they will do him the next 20 years until he retires! I have got to say my two DD's both pinch them often to wear in their boots or for wandering about the house. more power to your needles!!

    Those socks are fab Csarina. You should definitely set up a business, you seem to be quick at knitting them too!

    Well, Masterchef has finished, I wouldn't have liked to put a pin between them. Wont say who won in case some of you are going to watch it later.

    Good night all. XX

    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

    leeks, dafoodils, welsh cakes, dragons, welsh knots, lovespoons, welsh ladies, rugby, sheep, hills, coal mines, castles, seaside......it's all a bit cheesy here in Wales :rotfl:. You can't really have traditional cards without the cheese!

    Good grounds for a tribunal - you don't have to put up with bullying in the workplace. Lots of information here:
