    Wow! They are super cute! what a good idea.

    Just popping in to say hello to everyone, and welcome to all the newbies joining us this month - Spoony, I don't know how on earth you keep up :T

    First day back at work for me after a week off today - bit of a struggle and frankly I could do with another week :rotfl:

    ARGH! my wee furry minx has just pinched some beef I stir fryed off the work surface - still I guess it's my fault for leaving it there :doh:

    Well I can report NSD #1 :j Bought lightbulbs and kitchen roll for £2 today but that was from OH pot (was also running an errand for him so fair's fair) Really must get myself in gear re; Xmas presents - at least the ones I can be organised for. ...only 54 days to go :eek:
