    Hmmm dunno how that happened - I hadn't even looked at those ducks :rotfl::rotfl:

    Repasted it, but think I will just edit and post the pic lol

    Gosh - sorry - I didn't mean that your link led to the flying chickens...

    What I meant was that your link led to a page that suggested the flying ducks/chickens as a "you might also like" link....

    I was unclear...mea culpa....:(

    Mags-cats - good news about the mp chart, he always seems very nice when I've spoken to him at shows. Also, I agree about Hilda's flying chickens.

    Bikerchick - sorry to hear the treatment has wiped you out this time. What size aida are you looking to use? I might have something suitable - I even found a piece of binca out the other day.

    Louise - hope your dad gets on ok.

    Can't sleep at the moment, it's so hot and my hubby is snoring his head off. Got myself really upset earlier and I think that's the main reason why I can't sleep. I had to unpick one of the eyes on the tiger. I know it's silly to get upset and my mum would have done the same but logic went out of the window. It would have been my mums birthday this Friday and I don't think thats helping.

    Going to try to sleep now or wont be able to function in the morning.

    Louise - you're very naughty. I now NEED to go out and buy the magazine for that pattern, that in all likely hood will be added to my stash for a future date. :rotfl::rotfl:It's a very true design though.

    how do you do the links in the words iykwim?


    You have to have enhanced message editor interface chosen in your options for this to work. If you have lots of options at the top of the reply box you have it chosen already. If you don't have it just go to UserCP, edit options and in the misc options box choose enhanced interface then save changes.


    Right, now here's what you do....


    Open the web page you want to link to in another window. Write your reply and highlight the word you want the link to go into then along the top of the reply box there is an icon that looks like the earth with a chain link in front of it, click it. A hyperlink box will open and if there is a https// in the box you must delete it before pasting the address of your link in the box. The word you highlighted then goes blue and is underlined.


    Test~see the cheaper corrie kit here

    I have Cross Stitch Gold - just do the usual ;);)

    Have mailed my Angel picture to my friend this morning - hope it survives the post and makes it there quickly!

    Didn't do any stitching last night as I was trying to convince OH we need to sort the spare room out - think he's now decided we're decorating :eek:

    Bikerchick - sorry to hear the chemo is taking its toll. Try to stay positive and remember although its not good right now it's fighting for your recovery (sending hugs - can't find the smiley!).

    Ailsb, you are kind, but I started a small cat kit last night as found it easier with a hoop and a bit closer than my lap frame on my 'legs' kit. I don't want to mess that up!

    Also remembered whilst wide awake at 3 o'clock this morning (not so chipper now!) that I have a tapestry UFO of a clarinet for my daughter so might dig that out. Bigger holes, bigger needles, might be a bit easier.

    Lay in bed wide awake for two hours mentally going theough my craft cupboard thinking about what else to ebay :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: then got up and watched Midsomer Murders. Bit spooky in the dark :eek:
