I guess it depends on how patient you are. The ones I've just made are cafe curtains - the ones that just go one the wire, but still took a while to do. I guess if your fairly happy pinning and tacking then with a bit of patience you should be fine. Although have you checked out TJ Hughes - my friend got some lovely ones from there.

No I haven't will have a look, want tab top curtains.

Has anyone heard from MG? Hope she got home OK!

All the 90x90 curtains are expensive

Spud - I was wondering about MG myself

The snow has started again here but is very light at the moment. The main roads were bad this morning too - clear but slow

Hopefully she's so busy running after the boys she's not managed to update us.

See you tomorrow folks

A very low oven sounds possible, fantasia, but I don't even have a bm, so don't trust me!

Gemmzie - well done, I'm just trying to finish off today - and you were saying something on Hypno's thread the other day about something really nice that was gluten free, instead of the awful breads.... can you remember?

Spelt and Rye bread from Morrisons is lovely. It's not gluten free but it's a different type of gluten so lots of intollerant people get away with it.
But gluten free - the Tesco/Sainsburys sun-dried tomato ciabatta is lovely too.

Are we talking a nice error or a nasty one here...

Tax returns are fun

I'm not really sure - they decided I had earned £4000-odd in one month but they didn't tax me for it - it's just the total for the year which is wrong so not sure if it even matters!

I'll check on that, thanks - it would be *so* nice to buy a normal-ish loaf of bread - and I love ciabatta

KC - Tescos do a small wholemeal type loaf that looks like ordinary bread. It is gluten free and the chap who was buying it said it was good (I was charity bag packing at the time).

Claire - Have you tried IKEA for curtains? They do pale cream which I'm sure you could machine dye (curtains £20? dye £9?). And they do turquoise organza ... in fact I have a pair as I have the same wallpaper as you to put up in my bedroom (I have had mine 12m+ and it is still wrapped up). I don't think I will use them as my windows are short and wide, so you could have them if you want.

Gemmzie - Jolly well done on the tax return, I still have mine to do and would far rather do the ironing I will take myself by the hand as part of the by 20th Dec challenge and get it sorted.
