    Finding certificates - I don't envy you. Think I have to find mine soon - i think they're in the garage somewhere!

    I'm on the balcony typing - oh the luxury. Purchase of notebook has paid off this morning when I needed to submit application and couldn't get connection on main PC!

    Well done Buffy. I is impressed. Put yourself up on the roll of honour.

    Great to see you SRM.
    I am on the lookout for a purple satchel.

    I just got a cat kidston esk one off eBay quite reasonable but I don't know what you're budget is - I think I got the blue two packet one similar to ones listed here though they come in a variety of colours and you might have to mess around with the search terms...:(

    Anyhow...need prayer for the praying types (don't quite know where I'll find them on MSE...so far I've found MSE to be very anti christian) that I can get a refund easily off eBay for the paper trimmer I bought by mistake

    I ended up getting the following
    http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/boards/showthread.php?t=280606

    (that's just the reviews and the only ones I could find but they seem to know what they are talking about on that site :))...quite reasonable (well it was no cheaper online) locally and I do like to support local businesses where I can though she was really busy :)

    Anything beats a major chain in all honesty..they run the the country and will take over the world :eek:.. Even if this paper trimmer is made in PRC - everything is these days so why worry?

    I will wish you well and cross my fingers for you Esme. I have to confess I am not a praying type either. Required to do too much of it at school!

    They might not be very religious on here but some people are definately saints.
