    Hmm I need to come up with a funky name to sell my craft bits and pieces under. I haven't been able to go to the parents yet as my neck has just gone twang :( Looks like it might have to be a drive down first thing in the morning instead, as I can't drive if I can't turn my neck eep!

    Any ideas for shop names are welcomed :)

    Ooh Shop names, I will have a think ! We have been having the same conversation at home, trying to come up with names for an ebay shop for Mr Pinot to sell his wares if he ever has time, but unfortunately they all ended up rather silly or very rude !!! So I may not be the best of help !! :rotfl:

    I am absolutely loving my new lamp, so much so I feel I need to show you all :)
    here
    When I finish the bedding, etc and get a second lamp, my room is totally going to be hotel chic ;)

    Pinot, I have ibruprofen (didn't remember to get any gel from the shop oops) and I have chinese takeaway on its way :)

  • These are the lamps I got for our room, they're lovely and light it up loads, don't think I've used the main light since we got them on 2 for £16 for A$da

    Ooh fallen I love that lamp, I don't think it would go with my quilt though but it does look really snazzy :) posh lamps are winners, especially 2 for £16 bargain!

  • Hi Kerri, sorry I haven't had a chance to drop by for a few days. I'm sorry to see that you're still having problems with your neck. Have you ever tried those wheat packs that you heat in the microwave. They're brilliant for easing aches and pains. They don't take it away completely but definitely help.

    I hope you make it to your parents.

    I'm loving the quilt, the purse and the lamps. I so miss A£da and T£sco for being able to buy household items, at relatively inexpensive prices. Anything decent is so damn expensive in NZ. :(

    I'm pleased you're feeling happier too. Mr F worked away from home for a few months, several years ago, and it was very hard. It really helped to have good friends around me who would pop in for a coffee. That's something I miss now as I don't really have someone like that in NZ. My best friend moved back to the UK a few months ago and it's been like having my right arm cut off!

    Oops, seem to have gone all maudlin. :) Have a great weekend.
