Hi welshdreamer and florenceem, your very welcome, don't worry about the length of the challenges, treat them like a pick and mix, even if 1 part is any help, then thats brilliant, xx

Hello All,

I was pants at keeping up with last years thread, often read but didnt often post, planning on being better this year.

Christmas went ok for us, 1st time hosting, but then Ive had a 24 hour tummy bug which was not nice. Because of it Ive not managed to go to sales yet, sat on internet and got Mothers Day presents from Boots so at least Ive started. Hoping I feel less weak tomorrow and can brave the shops.

I too have EPIC Birthdays this year! 2 good friends 40ths, Aunties 50th and Mums 60th yikes!!!

Look forward to keeping up with you all x x

Oh, I need to be thrifty this year, please may I join in?

I've just started up my own diary so will try and link between here and there and see what I can come up with! I like the idea of thrifty gifty as I can be quite craft'y' and people seem to appreciate the gifts I make them! Looking forwards to this challenge very much!!!
