    Hi all :wave:

    No time to craft here, dad is back in hospital due to the cancer, so am doing 100 mile round trips nearly every day to see him and sort mum out. Have got an unplanned day off visiting today, so am washing, ironong, cleaning etc etc.
    I will get to craft, I will get to craft, I will get to craft.....:rotfl:

    Hope everyone is okay, Happy Birthday Artydoll for yesterday x

    Skiergirl sorry to hear your dad is back in hospital, sending you hugs

    I would like to start a monthly cardmaking/papercraft class and wanted some advice ie if you were to attend a class what would you pay, how long would you want the class to be for. best place to hold it.
    Looking into venues just now then I will need to sort out PLI

    Hi folks looks like my internet loves me to night I am changing my ISP next week so hope that will make a difference.
    Skiergirl sorry to hear about your Dad
    Liz I attend a craft club every 2 weeks in our local leisure centre we are just a group of friends now (used to be a Dawn Bibby Tiny team) and do not pay for anything other than the cost of the room. The only problem is that we cannot use electrical items unless they have been certified safe by a sparky every year which rules out heat guns laptops etc Our leader has hers checked but it can be a pain sharing.
    I also attend classes as and when I can at our local craft store paying about £15. classes last about 90 min (more if the gossip is hot :):))
    Hope this helps

    Hugs to all who need them

    Well I have actually cleared my craft room, I can even see my table again :p Going to crack on and get my fathers day card, hopefully I will update my blob with my mothers day card :o hangs head in shame I really need to get on with crafting as I don't want tp get behind again like I did last year but haven't made a card for nearly two months:eek:

    On the plus side my garden is weed free for now and most of my veg plants have been potted just flowers to go in and I am done. We are having our drive block pathed so have to be careful with money (although I have bought a few things from wild orchid crafts) but I have done something moneysaving for a change and made a ham hock broth which will do for 6 lunches!

    Welcome all the newbies :wave:

    Skiergirl I hope your dad is comfortable

    Marg Sorry I didn't enter your challenge time passed me by again

    Craftlousie Good luck hope you do well
