    Does anyone have the email address for across town stitching to send my order to as the stupid sidebar keeps jumping down!
    They really need to make that static, it would only take a little bit of coding!

    Thanks!

    Thank you. We're just about settled in, well we are mentally. It's lovely! And life just flows better. We're still in our little market town but in a nicer spot, not right on the a14 anymore. How about u?
    Physically, theres still lots of boxes, we need more furniture, but we did get a fab 2nd hand sofa a couple of weeks ago!

    EEK, got to go... Off to Corby woodland project to help with the autumn coppice and get logs for our fire :)

    That's great that you're so happy there. We like where we are now because it's so quiet! No noisy cars or noisy neighbours now, which is so nice :)
    I live nearer Corby than you, and I've never even heard of the woodland project lol! Hope you've had a good day.

    soulie - that's great, well done to everyone for raising so much money.

    Hi Guys,

    I haven't caught up for the last few days but really need to unburdon......ignore the rest of the message if you're not in a listening mood!!!

    Having a bit of stressful time this week - thought I was dealing with it til I got a phonecall from my mum this morning - my brothers wife of 6 weeks left him yesterday and too the baby too, my brother - who isn't the most stable person in the world - took and overdose and is currently in hospital. My parents are besides themselves obviously and I want to go over but I don't know how or what to do. I've not seen my brother for nearly 2 years since he had a 'moment' and beat my husband up leading to a subarachnoid heammorage; i don't know how to approach things with him - just want to give him a big hug and tell him it'l all be ok but I think I might make things worse. This is all vaguely wishful thinking about seeing him anyway, I don't know if my husband can bring himself to forgive my brother yet and I can't go alone as I have some weird agrophobia/panic attacks and can't get out of my very local area alone. God, we sound messed up. To top it all off I have a hospital appointment tomorrow as I found a breadt lump a few weeks ago and then on Thursday I get the results of my tests for early menopause (I'm only 32 and have no kids yet) and ovarian cancer. I'm sure my stuff will be OK but its just messing with my head so much.

    Sorry, unburdening over.....

    On a positive note Cross Stitch Gold arrived this morning and there a some gorgeous charts in there xxxxx

    I hope that everything's gets better for you - I'll keep my fingers crossed that all your tests come back okay :)
