After having to cancel my last lot of leave (work...grrrr) I am so ready for a break.

I'm looking forward to seeing all the lovely cards you've sent when I get back.

Have a lovely holiday!

Morning all :wave:

My card is all ready in its little envelope :j can't wait to post it and send its on its way

in off topic news....
had to share this hope you don't mind

Thank you

I post a picture up last night of outside in the snow and had to laugh one of the girls in Australia said she was so jealous.

When do we post the pictures? I remembered to take a picture after I sealed the envelope so had to reopen it.

Keep well and warm everyone

Card posted..but I think I missed last post as I was so busy at work I didn't get out... maybe the postman will be late too. Sorry for being rubbish..at least it's first class so should arrive wednesday.

I posted my card too although stupidly I was reading the times of the collections as I was putting it in the box. *sees 7pm collection* time after card has been dropped hopefully royal mail will work their magic. they damn should do for 90p :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

so looking forward to seeing all our stitchy efforts over the coming days:j

ps been shopping today in town. spent far too much. and its only day 1 of my week of finishing off xmas bits....

OH and Mollie makes somehow made its way into my basket in sainsbugs......

i don't think it matters when you post stuff or what class - royal mail still does what it wants with it when it wants.

I am assuming a seller has sent an item to me by parcel post (not sure why as I am sure it's cheaper to send it 2nd class) as It was dispatched a week ago and still not here but stuff I ordered after it has arrived. Just looked and apparently she does send 2nd class............ in which case either its stuck in the post or she didn't dispatch on the 25/11.
told you - me and bad luck at the moment.

Just realised there were some posts from a few weeks ago that I was intending to reply to. Apologies it's taken so long!

just for me this one.

Wicked doesn't hit my top 5 musicals, i don't know what it is about it. love defying gravity (it is from Wicked isn't it) but nope not keen on the show.

Yes, Defying Gravity is from Wicked. Hubby absolutely loves the show. I'm not sure I could pick an overall favourite. Avenue Q was very funny, and Dirty Dancing was brilliant. Ghost had amazing effects and We Will Rock You is very good too. I just love the buzz of a good theatre show. There's very few I haven't enjoyed.

Louise - that's really good news. So glad it's worked.

Off to bed now. Had spag bol. half a bottle of wine and some profiteroles - it was lovely.

On the 6.25 coach tomorrow to London. Having a very MSE break. Using my free tickets to the Ideal Home Expidition, return coach had cost £13 for the two of us and hotel with breakfast is £63. Looking forward to it. Off to bed now. Have a good Sunday all.

How was your trip to London? Did you enjoy the show?

Hi everyone!

Finally received the rest of my threads yesterday to do my Matt Smith cross stitch so have finally started it. Can't wait to see what it will look like finished! Can't figure out how to post pictures but am hoping to have figured it out by the time I finish it lol!

Cheers
Casper

How is your Matt Smith stitching coming along? My hubby is a Dr Who fan. I'm never sure about how good those stitch a star charts are, but Louise stitched Matt & it did actually look like him. Unlike some others who could be anyone...:D

spotted this on my travels today. Was very tempted until I saw the price..... I think it is overpriced at £10.99 and thought I might be able to get cheaper online but not found it cheaper yet. It is sweet and something I could get my OH to get me for xmas so I'm thinking of going back and getting it (since I haven't come up with any other ideas yet).

Did also go in the B0dy sh0p and see lots of nice things with a few pounds off but still pricey (shower gel and spray £20 ?):eek:

oh and visited c0met too. what a waste of time that was !

thats cute flat eric - i can't find anything similar cheaper.
