    Not funny at the time PepPop I thought my oranges were going to roll into the river!!:rotfl:

    Oh I hope they didn't! Were you able to rescue them?

    All safe and sound in the fruit bowl :)

    Did you succumb to the free p&p at Glitterpot Rainmac? I only bought a butterfly punch. Might do a LOTV stamp order today though. Just waiting for my candles and lip balm to arrive from Frills and ? they are for my DIL birthday later this month.

    Waiting to hear what colour I will be doing my sons wedding invites etc, it could be red, black or gold!!

    now I've finished laughing :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: is Flourboy actually allright?
    I suppose duck poo is better than dog poo :D (glass half full here lol!)

    Rainmac - I'm very very disappointed - shakes head in best DD lecturing pose - I'm going to list some stuff on eBay so it would technically be recycling when I buy that whiff of joy stamp ;)
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    I am sure Rusty won't mind me telling you but she has had an MRI scan this morning and results show she has a ruptured disc and the tissue is pressing on a nerve :eek:. I just can't imagine how painful that is :(:(:(.

    I,m so glad that somebody has actually found out the cause of her pain :mad: its been going on too long.
    heres hoping they can do something about it now they know what's up .
    thanks for letting us know,please pass on my hugs to her.

    Flourgirl - Oh dear! poor flourboy - if I may call him that? it does seem appropriate. Love the idea of his parchute training! My DH has one but I can't remember him doing any training with it so in the event of actually needing it not sure it would be that useful? Though I hope it never comes to that. :rotfl:IYSWIM

    Seriously, I do hope he is OK - a bit shocked I guess?

    My first thought about your oranges was at least it's a fruit you will peel before eating - a bit Howard Hughes.:rotfl:

    Hadn't realised Frills & Fondants did lip balm - might need to look again :)

    Rainmac - does your fall from the wagon mean I can get some ESSENTIAL Copics? ;)

    Lovely photo's craftygranny - Congratulations! Hope DIL is OK now. A friend of mine had similar problems after the birth of her daughter but has been fine since.

    It's a sad day here today, we had to take our poorly cat Suzie to the vets to be put to sleep - it was awful.

    For the first time in almost 35 years we are now without a cat. We have had a big tidy up of the utility room and are taking a big bag of cat food, feeding bowls, towels etc to the local pet rescue centre in a minute or so.....

    Flourgirl - hope your absess goes soon and your hubby is ok x

    Rainmac - congratulations on your win. Hope your nan recovers soon x

    Thanks for the update on Rusty. My disc bulges onto the nerve and that pain is enough, I can only guess what she's been through. Let's hope they get it sorted now xx

    Congratulations Craftygranny, hope they're both home soon x

    Marg - sorry to hear about Suzie, sending you hugs xx

    Well I've been "working" from home today ;) so I've managed to comment on bl*gs & add another card to mine. I might go mad & add something else else after I've made the tea.
    Rainmac Thanks for the update on Rusty, I do hope they can ease her pain soon, she must be in absolute agony :(
    Flourgirl, hope your OH is alright, sorry but I couldn't help but laugh at your description of it! :rotfl:
    Marg, so sorry to hear about Suzie. Sending you hugs :grouphug:

    Think I'm going to try & make something out of my Jamie Oliver cookbook for tea. Off to have look now as i'm not sure what to go for yet. I bet it takes me longer than 30 minutes to make whatever it is though! x

    Flourgirl - hope your neck gets better soon - it sounds really painful!!!! Glad to hear that you had a good time, I love lemon meringue pie - I don't think I've ever made one!! I'm sorry too - I giggled at the parachute training comment!!!

    Rainmac - congrats on your win - what a fab prize!!!!! Sorry to hear about your poor Nan, hope she recovers soon, I bet she'll love her card. Hopefully Rusty will get some relief now that they've seen the disc!

    Irlrip - welcome back!!! I had a break from card making when I moved last year for a few months, but am now back - although I'm still only managing to make about one a week!!! Try looking on blogs for inspiration, although classes sound like a great idea!

    Fififolle - really pretty birthday card - love the pastel colours. Fab valentines card too.

    CT19720 - thanks for clearing that up - makes perfect sense now - A robot dog!!!

    Craftygranny - I'm glad to hear that Logan and Mum are doing okay!! Baby Logan is gorgeous!!!!!

    Carmin - Your cake looks scrummy!!! Can I have a slice???? Fabulous birthday card too!

    Flying-fresian - Really lovely "new home" card - fab image!!!!
