Missed you in the cadbury shop DTB - I came home with a bag of Cadbury Freddos and a big bag of Fudges did spend quite a bit in the past times outlet shop though

I nearly bought some Freddos too but then knew I'd scoff the lot so decided to stick with the 750g of mis-shapes

Has anyone ever been to Pondskipper Crafts near Peterborough. Am off to visit Granny this week with it being half term and thought that might be as good a place as any to break my journey as it says it's only 5 mins from the A1.
Does anyone know if there is anywhere nearby that you can grab a cuppa or whether they're one of thos brilliant craft shops that oofer you a cuppa whilst you mooch around like both my local ones do?

TomsMom Got everything crossed for you OH and glad the puppy's ok.

Rusty Fingers crossed for your MRI too. Remind me never to get on your wrong side :eek:

Craftygranny Sending you all big Hugs, hope everything works out ok for Adam

Gemm I've not made a card for your challenge yet, can you let me know when it finishes please? (I have made a badge for it though - would you like me to email you it?)

OAP I'm glad everything went as well as it could and so sorry to hear about your cousin. Sending you hugs.

Lei That's terrible about your car - can the police not do anything about it?

Congratulations KMS

Rainmac The new Christmas Magnolias are lovely - lucky you

Artydoll Sending you hugs - hope Mr Artydoll feels better soon.

WHOO HOO Marg is BACK! :T:T Thanks for the comment on my card too BTW maybe if I can draw enough of them I might - OH keeps telling me I should and that I need to believe in myself a bit more, so your comment was lovely.

Scrappy did you manage to sort out the problem with following my blog - do you need me to do anything?

WBR Thanks for the other heads up - don't know how I missed it but off to enter right now.

Well it's been an expensive weekend in the PepPop household - my washing machine started making a really horrible clunking noise this morning so I've ordered myself a shiny new washer/drier - thankyou MSE for a 5% discount code :money: I can't complain too much I've had the old one for about 14 years Definitely won't be going to the SEC next weekend now

Has anyone ordered big boxes of card from Papermill and would you recommend them, I'm just wanting plain white card? (and if any of you have the Espon SW515 what is the thickest card you've put through it?) Thanks in advance.

Peppop - I've put 300 gsm through mine without any bother.

DTB - sorry can't help you there.

Thank goodness for that, I've finally caught up on all the weeks posts.

Sorry to hear some people have had a very rough week, and I hope things look up very soon.

Pepop I've put 300gsm card through too - no probs!

I can't possibly comment on everything, so I'll just say goodnight for now and take care. xxx

I'll catch up on blogs tomorrow. I'll have more time, as the kids are off school.

BTW I haven't thanked anyone as someone has nicked the thanks button again! Grrrr

mooomin

I've made another two Christmas cards tonight Both of them are really simple ones, but I think they're pretty.

I'm knackered just now so not going to blog them until tomorrow probably.

Night night all!

PepPop

Have you seen these

Goodmorning everyone. Horrible and frosty here (not me, outside!) LOL

Peppop MY DD would say they're cool!

Up early today as I have to wait for four deliveries. One's the Eclipse hopefully (Did you get yours yet Craftfairies?). I can't wait to play.
