I'd love to but I'm absolutely talentless when it comes to this kind of thing. I can crochet fairly well but thats about it.
Ooooh and i made a papier mache piggy bank when I was 7 :rotfl:
:eek:

You may be talentless at handicrafts (although I am not sure I believe you :rotfl:) but you really are an amazing ideas person, capable of thinking outside of the box and one of the biggest cheerleaders on this thread.

For that, I thank you

MG - Sorry to hear about the tonsilitis I know it can be pretty miserable. I have a few Morrisons Vouchers - can you PM me to let me know where I should send them?

GQ/Souk/Claire - You all seem to have had a very productive day, well done you

Bitsy - Your "makes" are as good as any on Etsy or Folksy! The more outlets you can find the better

MollyMunchkin - Great to see you are spreading your wings too!

It seems a few people have lost special Mums this year and I do remember the feelings well (My Mum died just over four years ago). The "firsts" really are tough and I have to say I struggled with the "seconds" too. I was sad that I couldn't look back and say last year we did..... I hope you can all look back at the happy times, they help to get you through the sad moments too

Positive thoughts to those that need them

What a lovely post Matymoo! :j

MG, poor you I too feel like I'm swallowing razor blades today Late night, managed fine at work, but the 2.5 hour journey home entirely finished me off, and I fell asleep for 2 hours as soon as I got in the door. Woke up ten mins ago and dragged myself to bed with the laptop - and I'll be asleep again in another ten mins

Mr Daffs and friend having band practice in the kitchen, so nice soothing harp/guitar music floating through the ceiling :j Hope you get a similar luxury, if not, I'll have a little snooze for you too (see how generous I am?? :rotfl:) xx

You need to contact craft folk, the council are expensive

Thanks Claire, I'll look into that.

Get well soon, MG. You need to take care of yourself. Have a dodgy hug :grouphug:

Oh dear Cheery, sorry to hear you are feeling poorly too Get well soon My Mum always said she could tell if we were really poorly or trying to skive off school - If we were ill we would just want to sleep.

Oooh, love the idea of the soothing music on tap, lucky you

Sorry to hear about the tonsilitis MG & Daff, but don't come near me, even virtually, as I seem to catch it faster anyone else I know. *Wards off with a cross and garlic*

Other than that, I have a shirt to get rid of for Kits for Kids and nobody to give it to! Now that we have hit the collection stage, can someone - ANYONE - give me an address I can post it to, even if it's a collection person's house, who can then bring it to the main collection, if that makes any sense? (PM, of course). It's brand new and everthing!

Sorry if that sounds like a moan, but I'm just trying to get rid of everything I no longer need and it's one less thing to worry about.

Hope you are all well and looking forward to the Manchester workshop. That is, if MG can speak by then. (If not, we can just chat at her and she'll just have to sit there and nod at any nonsense we talk at her! :rotfl:)

A huge TADA from last night to report. The builders finally came round and I now have a fireplace and a replastered wall. The gas man is booked to come on Friday so I should have a gas fire like normal people before the christening on Sunday! Although I'll have to wait until the plaster has dried before I can decorate.

Another tada is that I finally got the cake trapped in a corner of the kitchen last night and managed to fling the icing over it. It doesn't look as good as I'd like (the sides are a bit patchwork) but with judiciously placed ribbon and decorations no one will be able to see.

I missed something - what's a tada?
