    Yes please:)

    Just not sure about red though. I saw you more as wedgewood blue

    Oh gosh now I'm on the website looking at the colours.

    Unsure now. You might be graphite:)
    That pic is very similar to the one we have - that's why I picked it.

    Navy blue is my colour but trying to introduce more colour into my life :)

    I have one of those sewing boxes mines got cotton and buttons in,
    My mum has a smash tin that is full of buttons and i can remeber it from a kid in the 70's we played for hours with the button tin, can you imagine many kids doing that now?
    My mum used to work part time, she had us 5 girls and dad cooked for my pap and uncle everyday too, and still made all our clothes, coats dads suit's, batch baked on her day off ( a thurs) and then we had a treat of an egg cup full of currants and sultana's lol

    Mad I've got a terrible confession.

    DD and I were messing on with this photograph. I didn't want to open my cream just for a photograph so we cheated and used milk

    Not quite the same somehow:T
    The photograph is like what you would see in a magazine :T

    My poor daughter and her bf

    I think they must have been at work but when they came back they found that the pipes under the bath had suddenly gone, burst or something, flooded the flat underneath and also gone under the living room floor etc

    The landlord has taken responsibility and the plumber has been in go sort it out.

    They actually move in under 2 weeks so they were already in the midst of packing so the flat is in even more chaos now.

    Various reasons for moving but one of the main reasons is that the owner of the flat has managed to get a buyer, sale agreed a few weeks ago to 1st time buyers so they were hoping to complete and move in ASAP

    Daughter sounded so depressed on the phone and nothing much we can do for them just now, at least the flat is still habitable

    Poor kids, I can understand why they're feeling down and probably thinking 'this is the last thing we need'. Hope there wasn't too much damage to their belongings, and they can look forward to moving out soon.

    Nah, I needed a change, this will do as a stop gap till I find something more suitable. I'm sure everyone is sick of my Bub greeting them first thing :)

    My Mum used to keep (and still does) all of her sewing stuff in a Quality Street tin (the mahoosive ones and not the diddly little ones they try and palm us off with). Needles, buttons, cotton, patches of denim, the lot. It was like a freaking tardis. If you popped it open you'd spend half an hour picking stuff off the floor. By which time Mum would have mended the garment. Dad used to keep cake bars and biscuits in a Quality Street tin too. Mad used to like swapping them around :rotfl:
