    KMS I am sure you are wrong maybe Ali has still more to blog.

    My first Barbra Gray monthly club pack has just arrived and I am desperate to play. It contains some" how to ideas" a lovely news letter and a beautiful sentiment stamp "Together we can handle anything" which I think will go very well on some Cancer Research cards I am working on for their Craft for Life fundraiser through Docrafts Creativity mag.

    So have fun I am of to play

    Well my bag is half-packed! I've put baby's stuff in there but I haven't bothered with most of mine yet as I use the majority of it every day - dressing gown, slippers etc! Its hard remembering what I need to take even though its seems only yesterday I was there with Elliot.

    Flourgirl - beautiful card as always - love the gems that you've added to your swirl, and your bunny's tail is really cute! Sorry to hear about your Dad's bad news.

    Craftygranny - that's fab news about Carly - no wonder you are all so thrilled!!!

    Rainmac - good luck for Saturday - you are brave for taking them all there!!! I bought the new CC designs spring Kiki stamp, and I bought a s.w.a.l.k stamp - it was the "blooming wonderful" one, I've never bought any of their stamps before but I thought for £3.99 they were good value! Congrats on your win!!!!

    Mad-Frog - I got the Gertie and the Hazel paper pads - I resisted buying all four! Plus I got a fancy pants paper pad too - I don't think I've ever bought any of their papers before, it was the "it's the little things" one, the papers are really nice!

    Craftygranny - that's fantastic news about Carly.

    Rainmac - I've managed to get extra hours in the day by giving up smoking - I didn't realise how much time it took up :rotfl: But as you don't smoke it won't help you :rotfl::rotfl:

    Thanks for all the well wishes for Mr P - I went shopping today and my trolley has undergone a complete transformation - even down to wholemeal bread :D the most unhealthy thing in it was the cat biscuits :rotfl:
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    I could probably follow the same principle with cutting out food...or maybe not... :p
