Raimac it's lovely getting new furniture we got a new table and chairs a few weeks ago as we needed a smaller one and it's fab. My new unit should be here next month from the range it's been on order since july .

hi guys, i have been reading faithfully but never seem to get round to posting. if i'm friends with you on facebook i do try to keep up on there. i have been sat for 1hr trying to update my blog, is there anyway to do it without using blogger coz it's doing my head in?

PepPop

MadFrog - Sending you and your family hugs. Hope everything goes OK for your stepdad.

Rainmac Has your new furniture arrived yet?

Craftygranny Wow I thought your unit had arrived - that's been ages

CG You can use MS Word and if you go to "New" instead of picking document you can choose "New Blog Post" type it all onto that then Publish as a Draft - don't Publish it cos the pics don't work. Then you just need to go into Blogger to add the pics. It's not ideal but at least you're only using blogger for a minimum amount of time. Unless someone knows how to get the picture to work too - in which case can you let me know please? Don't know if that's any help but that's how I do it.

Off to wander round blogs...

Pep pop i did get 2 units in summer after waiting months for them but then we found out we could fit an extra one in and they said it would be nov before they got them so i'm waiting on the call but i'm betting it'll be january before i get it . last time they were delayed by over 2 months cos they were held up at sea lol. Damm pirates lol

Afternoon everyone.

Totally lost my crafting mojo lately. My Eclips arrived yesterday and I haven't even got it out of the box yet.

I hope everyone is well and my thoughts go out to those who are not.

Take care everyone - Happy crafting xxx

Afternoon,

Elysia - i hope your mojo comes back soon, what about doing some colouring, you will have the images ready when you do get back into it

I can't remember what else i have read :cool: sooo sorry.

I have put card on my you know what but i feel it is missing something any suggestions are much appreciated

I have something i have been dying to share with you all but can't until tomorrow :cool:

Also can anyone give me any ideas on what i can do with 6 blank cork coasters? They are the same as these

Rainmac, Gemm, Craftygranny and The Wife i hope my parcels got to you safely. I never trust Royal Mail!

KMS i've just got back from shopping and my package from you was here waiting for me . The card is beautiful thank you so much.

well i went shopping yesterday and as i got out the car a group of youths were stood in the enterance to the shop holding a pumpkin and shouting penny for the lantern so i walked past and when they asked me i said i've never heard of it. 2 teenage girls were sat on the wall and one shouted it's halloween have you never heard of it you mean old b***h . i told my oh to say nothing and when i got in store i complained to the manager and told him i didn't think it was right them begging outside the shop and harassing old ladies doing their shopping . He told me there was nothing they could do. When i got home i spoke to the local pcso and they had them moved on but it made me think was i just being mean and miserable. i hope not.

Glad it got to you ok.

I think that is disgusting, Kids have no respect for adults nowadays. I am only 28 but i was always taught to RESPECT my elders and that is what i teach my children too. I am so angry for you :mad: I don't think you are mean at all!

Flourgirl, that is awful, we have trouble with young people hanging around outside our local shop, I sometimes feel sorry for them but when I hear stories like yours I don't. I managed to grow up in a small town without hanging around harrassing people trying to do their shopping so why can't they??? I've sent you something today, I know it's early but am away next week x

Elysia, have sent you your card and ATC swaps today, hope you like them

KMS, thank you so much for the stash, there is LOADS!!! My fave item is the string of little Christmas lights, have an idea for a card in my head that I want to put them on I've finally posted my blog candy to you today and also your stash swap goodies, it's all in the same very large Jiffy bag.

PepPop, my furniture has arrived thank you, we need to put it together , hopefully OH will want to get on with that tonight while I supply him with lots of tea

I've had a bit of a crafty day today and said s*d off to the ironing, it's done me loads of good but the ironing is still waiting to be done OH hasn't got a shirt for tomorrow so got to do at least some later .
