  • Totally agree with the "only got silver" comments.

    They were incredible. They obviously put their all into it and they should be dancing for joy that they are among the best in the world, but instead they felt they had to apologise to the nation for letting us down - well the didn't did they, they were brilliant. Grr. Rant over.
  • Love the fairies Louise

    Louise - the fairies look brilliant. Can you send some of your stitching speed my way please?

    Twice this week I've cooked a weight watcher$ meal in my microwave for my lunch and both times I've stuck my finger in to check its cooked with the obvious outcome that I've burnt said finger ! I cooked the meal at lunch and my finger is still hurting now!! I will not do this a third time!

    My mission tidy up is going ok although I'm kind of bored of it now. Its therapeutic although I don't think I will be too popular with the recycling man/bin man :rotfl:

    I have however found a tigger chart I quite fancy stitching - I wonder if I have the threads ?

    Opinions needed please!!

    Is it too late to do some sort of birth sampler for my kiddywinks? My DD is 2 yrs 6 months and my son is 1 yr 1 month. I am still deciding whether to stitch the toy shelf design and the 'Sweet Dreams' bears that were in a recent(ish) 'special' cross stitch magazine. Coincidentally enough, the sample cards made from the designs featured my children's names - spooky!!!

    Louise. Love the Fairies! They really are lovely.
    :heart2: Love isn't finding someone you can live with. It's finding someone you can't live without :heart2:
  • brednal- i think it is never to late, my mum did the sweet dreams one for my youngest when he was born.

    did a little bit of stitching tonight, but hubby sitting there all moody (god knows why) kinda put me on a downer so i put it away. spent the last 2 days turning a little folder (the ones you get in sainsb to put your recipie cards in) into little filofax for a friend for xmas was really pleased with it untill hubby said it looked like it was somthing you would give a kid, so that was a waste of 2 days and now need to find her a new gift :(

    men huh !!!
