    Yep, that's the site. I hate paying for a rush order, if I'm already paying for P&P I refuse to pay extra on top! I'm a tight git, hence going down the evil Groupon voucher route in the first place ;) The offer for a big 20x30 canvas for £17.50 is tempting but I just don't know what to put on it! The one I've ordered is a picture of Hogwarts from HP World teehee, we're massive nerds... but I'm cool with that. :cool:

    That's the size I got, but it was £19 when I did it. If you're fiddling on facebook later I just uploaded the pic I've had put on the canvas - big one with lots of friends inside photo frames.

    I'll have a nosey tonight :)

    I've talked OH into going to see The Muppets with me at the weekend and I'm too excited! :D Heard one of the songs from the movie on the radio yesterday and it's been stuck in my head ever since, looking forward to seeing it in context in the film! :)

    Was it Man or Muppet? Chris Evans plays that every day, it stays stuck in my head until I go to sleep then I wake up and he plays it again! This morning he played it in Spanish, the man is obsessed!

    Yep that's the one! YouTubed it last night to show OH and we both got really excited when Jim Parsons (Sheldon from Big Bang) popped up! :p

    Is Sheldon in the Muppet Movie then? I did not know this! This greatly increases my chances of getting OH to see it! (From non-existent to slim)

    I think he just appears as a cameo during the Man or Muppet song :) There are loads of cameos, think everyone in Hollywood wants to work with The Muppets, they're probably more professional than some 'stars'! :p

    OH wants to go and see this. I might ask his mum to look after Noah so we can go at the weekend (not that I really have to ask his mum, she practically kidnaps Noah at any opportunity :rotfl:).

    Love the charm, I have spotted one that I want for my bracelet to sort of represent Noah - its an ark :)

    Oh and well done with the race!
