    Morning all

    Am on day 2 of 3 days off, 2 of which are a weekend, it seems so odd having a full weekend off, hold on got to check on the coffee pot it has a knack of over flowing this week... we appear to be ok. Got some Lush sorted out for mum to sell, also my previously blocked from selling ebay account is functional again and I probably will be swapping back to it as with this new one I have I have to wait 21 days for most of my payments which is a pain.

    todays missions include cleaning the fishtank, ebaying things.
    I still have my weird quirk about only drinking orange juice and lemonade, which is weird.

    Ooh I want to make brownies today too.

    Love and hugs

    OOOhhh just found a lovely website. Doesn't appear to be the cheapest (but some things are quite reasonable) but if nothing else there is some great pieces that might offer inspiration to the crafty amongst us.

    What a lovely site. Will add it to the shopping post. :)

    The shower curtain was from Ebay fatblackandwhite. The seller hasn't called it a Christmas or festive curtain, it's just 'Luxury beautiful flower modern art design bathroom fabric shower curtain' (from China) The price is £12.81 now but still free postage & packaging :)

    Wow that three months has whizzed past Opee :) treasure each minute this precious time is gone so quickly. Thanks for the mincemeat tip, I wonder what has happened it's so strange to be so heavily reduced yet again with good dates too?


    Well I'm guessing it's just with it being "summer" (she says whilst looking out of the windows onto a soaking wet, dark and miserable garden - hasn't stopped raining all day) there won't be a high demand for mincemeat.... most people won't have even thought about Christmas..... not like us nutters ;-) xxx
  • Thank you for birthday wishes! Had a lovely day of not very much - house is due to complete on Thursday so stress levels running quite high until we're finally in!

    Happy birthday MsGigglewick!
