    Love it Starnac...I'd have made soup with mine! :rotfl:

    Had my last fair this morning, at my college. It was very busy, and I sold LOADS! Not totted up the takings yet, but should be over £100 :j:j

    I was asked (along with a few other stall holders) by one of the business lecturers to attend a fair he is setting up for his students in February. He wants us to talk to them about setting up a business and tell them what our experiences have been. Should be good, and I might even sell something too.

    I got lots of lovely comments, as well as good sales. I also bought some lovely things from other stalls...sorted a lot of the men in my family!! :D

    Now I have to work out what I want to make to sell for the rest of the year, that's my holidays sorted then!

    Hope you have had a lovely day Pippi...hope the parties were fun!

    Sorry, can't offer you any stamina...run out of all my stocks today too! Managed to do more present shopping too, as well as visiting lots of shops to wish the owners a Merry Christmas...was a lovely afternoon, but walked lots and so really wiped out tonight.

    Need to write all the Xmas cards tonight, to post tomorrow..last day for 2nd class post! Also need to finish making things for my family this weekend. Posting parcels either tomorrow or Monday. Heading off to Slough Monday afternoon to see my lil'sis to deliver her familiy's presents.

    See, another one trying to do too much! Isn't it in a woman's DNA... it certainly is in mine :rotfl:

    Have a lovely weekend.....try and find some time to relax everyone!

    Good for you KC. Starnac that is precious that dream...... I love that you thought about making coleslaw too. So funny thanks for making me smile and I love Cwtching.... as my blog title shows.

    Hey Pippi, hope that the party went well.

    He said she has a good quality of life, is 'a delightful little dog' and gave her 10 days of anti inflammatories for stiffnes in her back legs probably caused by beiong wobbly / falling in the early stages of recovery. He doesn't think it's a long term problem. She even got a biscuit out of the 'special tin' for being a good patient.

    I want a doctor like that :D.

    Coleslaw dream v funny. I dreamt I was singing the solo from the Military Wives song the other night. Shame Mr GG wasn't there as I'd love to know if I sang out loud :rotfl:. I suspect I did as I woke up very suddenly :cool:
