Pigpen, thanks for all the hard work that you've put into this thread over the years, you've done a fantastic job.
I know it's on the facebook page but i can do the christmas card list this year if we're still going to do it. I don't mind plus i've 3 extra helpers here who would love to do it. Just let me know if i'm needed.
That would be great.. but.. it needs to be kept on FB as they get uppity if we do anything about it on here.. Maybe a bit in the discussions bit on fb saying inbox details to you so everyone has your address and posts to you and you sort and send to everyone?.. and what they need to send (cards and postage)adamantine wrote: »is the FB group a closed one? id like to join in on FB seeing as there and here are the only 2 pages ever open on my comp bar cashback sites when i need to buy something!It is a closed group.. if you apply to join there are a few of us who can let you in xx

Pigpen - Thanks for all the lists over the years
Toots - I hope you are still going to be posting?
Lovely to see so many people volunteering to take over a thread with so much history - the original ones started by Moggins back in 2005 or so, then Lil Me, and most recently Pigpen. It would be such a shame to see it all go.
Can I suggest a collective name for the new FCC? Jackdaw! JJ-DK-KW
I am off to Henry up half a ceiling from DS1's bedroom. DH sanded most of the problems out which is great but the resulting dust is awful.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -

Lounge has been cleaned to within an inch of its life - even the largest, heaviest dragons have been moved and properly dusted.:o Also removed the Meg nose art from the patio door.:D
Pears in red wine recipe located so that I can do pud for tonight.;)
Pasta weighed out, and ingredients for cheese sauce put ready for whenever Mr LW gets in - he's on late shift tonight, and I know for a fact that he has some work that can't be done til after 18:00, so we'll just have to wait and see how long it takes. Apparently the task itself is very small, but stopping and restarting the systems may take time. *rolleyes*
Might as well get my Brain Training done while I wait - I have to do a sitting down task now as I'm cream crackered.:cool:If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0
