Sorry I've not been around much lately. My friends been in hospital, and I've been visiting often (poor thing being stuck with me for company).
I also had to blitz the house over the weekend, so I haven't been on here much.

Rainmac - I love the sampler you're making. It's nice and simple so it shouldn't take too long!

CraftyGranny - Blogger has been playing silly beg*ers with me, so I'll put the link to the Ear Trust when I can. Thanks also for the link to the footie DP's. Most of my family are footie mad, more so the girls funnily enough!

Gemm85 - I'm really glad you had a lovely holiday. Thanks for the chance to win on your bl*g. I'll see if I can get on later - I need to catch up on MSE first.

Myz - You take care! Don't overdo it - we'll see you as and when you're strong enough.

Well done to the winner of the blog candy. ***** *****!

Sun is shining here today for a change, I hope it's lovely where you are too.

Hi all,

Just a quick favour please...I may not be online much for the next few days, so if you're entering the Festive Fun challenge can you please PM me instead of posting on the thread as I might miss your messages after tomorrow. Thanks!

Also, can anyone recommend a good US website to buy crafty things for good prices? I have a good friend in America who is happy to receive a parcel for me and send it on, I'm hoping this will be good for bargains! Any online codes would also be fab.

Thanks again!

Online USA shopping complete and a Martha Stewart punch is the highlight along with lots of stamps and some other [strike]unnecessary[/strike] essentials.

Woo for having a friend in the continental US She's going to send it all over with her UK-based boyfriend as well so hopefully no shipping charges for me :j

Hi ladies - sorry I haven't been around much - we've been having a really tough time with Elliot at the minute - he's not been sleeping very well and then in the day he's been really niggly - so I'm worn out. My Mum and sister have come up for a visit today so I'm taking advantage of them playing with the kids and keeping them occupied and thought I'd try and catch up on here.
