    One for all the elite who love to craft and bake.

    Could you give me ideas of what craft and baking items are best to be included in a Craft show. Last year not many people entered, I was wondering if this was down to the categories?

    Vegetable animal ? My kids entered at local show every year. Was some great ones. Crocs from cucumbers, cat from aubergine. They won quite a few times. Hth xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    OMG you just reminded:eek: me about my hilton stay

    When we went to Egypt our travel agent had a word with the manager, it was a bit quiet. We had booked basic rooms, we ended up with a suite that would have cost $450 a night :D It was real fancy, we had our own lounge, separate bedroom, separate dressing room etc :D And we left the room and were straight on the beach :D
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    Good Evening. Does anyone know if the passport office in Liverpool is within walking distance of the town centre, James St or Central Stations please. As I go there I was thinking I may deliver the forms etc by hand to make sure they get there lol .

    Hi,
    James st would be best, Moorfields even better, about ten - fifteen minutes walk passing some beautiful buildings.

    my kids loved doing them . great idea and something everyone can do, also a garden on a plate is another popular one. the ide is to make them so everyone can do them , some shows you need to buy expensive stuff for the classes we stick to decorate a yoghurt pot, or make a mask from paper plate, a recycled item is also poular xx
