    Marg Within hours of the op on the last eye he could see really well and within a week he had perfect vision in it. The only problem was because they do one at a time and wait 6 weeks inbetween he's had problems because he needed his specs for one eye but not for the other, so he couldn't read and was getting headaches. Now that they're both done he's a different person. I'd recommend it to anyone.

    As for the time management - I think procrastination is my problem... it's like when I was as school... I used to have the best, most colourful study planner but precious little studying got done cos I spent so long making the blimmin thing. I've not changed :rotfl::rotfl:

    EXACTLY the same here, well, apart from the study planner! - At 12 I was the only girl (and I wasn't the brightest lamp in the box by a long way - 11% in the latin exam!) in the class that knew that 'cras' is the latin for 'tomorrow' 'cos my parents nagged me about it - even then :rotfl:it's too late for me to change now.

    Hi everyone. I kept meaning to ask how to add watermarks so it has been really useful to read all the advice. I will have to give it a try.
    I've been doing quite well on the card making front with about one a day in the usual place. Didn't get one done today as I had too much work to do. It feels wrong not getting some crafting done!
    Hugs to all.

    I want to put some cords with tassels on my Christmas cards to dress them up a bit but I don't know where to find them.

    I have looked at a lot of websites but they just seem to sell short tassels for bookmarks, or loops with tassels on which are not the right size for my cards.

    Can anyone help me find tassels which are adjustable in length, or cords of different lengths?

    Grateful for any help.

    Thanks.
