Ahem. I can see this you know!

I did manage to attract the attentions of a potential suitor on Friday evening. Sadly he didn't attract my attention though He is referred to as 'Tinie Tempah' as he looked rather a lot like him.

He doesn't sound as good as our shortlist....y-y-y-y-ou'll h-h-h-ave to quiz LIR -ab-ab-ab-out her chap

Outrageous price! Far too "fussy" for my taste..... I've got 3-4 small sticks of driftwood now, with 2-3 shells and a shiny fishing line thing (not sure of its name) ... in a little bowl on my window sill. I'll be adding bits/bobs to it over the months until it's full of beachy bits

I want a pet tipi!

Included with your purchase is a handmade pom pom garland, but your pet can decorate their tipi however they wish.

At this rate he might have to do!
She's not really putting much effort in herself is she ... so will have to put up with any shortlist we identify

Pot and kettle?

@ Wheezy, I think the dog is doing karate, not flying:p

£28.00, not bad.......:eek: how much! You can get a full load to Milan for less than that ( though not with Bugs trucking, ahem), which tells you all you need to know about trucking:(

This house is two minutes up the road from me, read and weep people in Herts. No there isn't a 0 missing in the price. You can't actually see the front of the house from the road, I have lusted before, but it's out of my price range.

When I saw them I couldn't quite "place" where the fixings were from, where I'd seen them before .... and I did some searches online to see how/if I could make some myself (i.e. what are the component parts), but I couldn't find anything similar except the finished product.... but I KNOW the metal outsides are "something" that is on the tip of my tongue .... and it bugs me that I can't remember what on earth they're from.

If one can identify that bit .... the rest is just two bits of cut glass.

The frame reminds me of very, very, old purses/bags/compact cases/similar .... just can't quite nail it.

I've just remembered where I've seen a closure like that. Ikea candle lamp. Think it has 6 glass sides, and that very fiddly closure is on the one that you open to put a tea light inside.

They do both suit you. I think there is a blue to suit every one. And personally, I am a bit odd about colours, I think the colour that suits you can be the colour you love, more than the colour that suits you. Well worn, joy for a colour is more important I think than many other things. And I also agree there are warm blues.

But there are also icey ones. Its not that I don't like blue, I do. I just have a stiong personal disconnect with most shades of blue. Not all, but most.

I like blue, but do find it cold. I'm unlikely to decorate in blue - except for the summerhouse which I am sporadically painting blue, for a cooling effect. The exterior is a light sand colour.

I do wear a fair bit of blue too.
