    Lots of people looking and sending pm's but nobody chatting!

    Where is everyone heading this weekend?

    We are off to Ikea tomorrow (hoping for decent weather) and then to the Stormont on Sunday.

    Hi everyone been a busy bee making cards and jewellery as Pamper day was a great hit will be doing it again I think in June (will confirm when date is set). I'll be at Stormont too looking forward to see everyone.
