I'm just online, unless you want to come and visit me in my home
I need to add an additional postage option for small orders but I've not worked out how yet.
I buy so many different fabrics from over the pond that are gathering dust, that I thought I should try selling them online and from there the idea of selling ribbons and other bits started.
I don't officially open until the start of CraftFest on the 16th, so you've all got a sneak preview hehe.
Be careful what you wish for......I don't live far from Cardiff so I could come visit you at home :rotfl:

Oh, I've put a note on there now to say that 1 unit = 1m
I've just bagged myself 2 free tickets for the cinema tonight from the cinema ticket thread :T:T:T funny how if you look on the day of the actual film you're more or less guaranteed to get tickets
I thought it may have been a metre but wasn't sure.
When I look at the cinema tickets none of them was a cinema close to meHope you have a good evening

Also worth putting if the fabric will be cut from the bolt as ordered or if all fabric is precut in fat quarters. As a dressmaker I'd want to buy in one length, so buying 4 fat quarters wouldn't appeal unless I knew it would come in one length 66 wide. Otherwise, looking good.Long haul supporter #290POAYDBX2014 #043LBM Dec 2011 Debt £51K Debt Nov 2014 £42K0 -

One card down, three to go......
I've also had £82 leave my account for my Postoffice CC (which is all capital) and £100 go to my other Halifax card (which is probably 2/3rds capital). Never before have I looked forward to getting a CC bill, but am this month as want to see where I'm at with my large Halifax debt.
Next target is my MBNA balance which reaches the end of its 0% life in April which is next month!!! Arghh - how did that happen!!!

DH received lift money from his colleague today so I am going to top it up with £2 save the change and a bit from the current account to round it up to £67. An odd amount but it will bring my total paid off this month to £1000:D
Should have another £80 for my DH phone to add, it looks like I won't get anything for my water damaged one after all:(. This wont come through for a week or 2 though.

Hi Financial Surrender, well done for the payments, can you update on here with the amount paid off so far this year then I will add it to the spreadsheet. TaDMP started Oct '17: £79,974 :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:0 -
