    Paddingtondoo,
    I've gone through the site and changed a fair few spelling mistakes as well as Nut Brown Hair instead of Hare! :rotfl: DH is very good at doing site for me but a dreadful speller, bless! Would appreciate anyone pointing out any I've missed!

    Becs

    Doesn't he have nut brown hair though :rotfl:.

    I think it's a boy thing - OH and DD were playing scrabble on Saturday and I ended up helping both of them :o.
    DD is 8 don't know what his excuse is :p
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    I can't believe mine, he's a company director and still not sure how he does it! His excuse is he types too fast to think! lol! He does silly things like confuse brake and break! It drives me mad.

    Hi Becs,

    Hope you don't mind but I noticed a couple which you may want to change.

    Front page:

    all of our cakes are handmade so customising designs - designs is wrong


    Same paragraph clothing is spelt wrong

    next paragraph - should that not say accommodate? not sure of the spelling but I think its double c double m


    About us page –
    What is a baby cake – 2nd paragraph – traditional is muddled.
    Raising kids is like being held hostage by midget terrorists

    Thanks RF,

    I'd changed the ones on the first page but hadn't spotted traditional on about us page. All done now. You get so used to looking at words that are wrong your brain corrects them without realising they're wrong!

    Hi Becs fantastic news on the fayre - you will be rushed off your feet with orders now!!!!!
    I tried to look at your website but google is not coming back with anything.

    I definitely think its worth doing a fayre like that even if you didnt get any sales because its a brilliant advertising tool. The summer fayre I did was similar and sold lots through that.

    P.s Love the cake Candy xx

    Well done Becs! So glad all your hard work and heavy spending(LOL) paid off. You must be thrilled!

    Am going to look at your website now.

    Candyb love your red and white cake. It looks really different with the "fresh" colours.

    Hi Shelley,

    Thanks, I'm hoping to get a few orders out of it. Still have a fair bit of stock left. 4 more 3 tiers and I'll have broken even from my very heavy spending! Anything more than that and I'll be in profit! Not worrying too much as sure they'll go eventually!. website should be working www.becsbabycakes.co.uk I left the www bit out of last post for fear I'd be jumped on for advertising!

    Thanks Moonpenny,

    It's a relief to get it over with now I have to say! Next thing to get out the way is MRI on thursday-god I hate those things and dh can't come because he has a meeting he can't cancel so just have to whimp it out on my own!:rotfl: WHen that's done I just have Christmas cake and pudding to make and a 4' gingerbread man!

    Thanks Shelley,

    It really is very basic and unfinshed at the mo. As I said dh did it in 2 hours and he hates it! I think he did very well. He's going to have a play around with it at the weekend and see if he can make it look better. Mainly putting the cakes onto seperate pages so the text is legible for starters! So crammed on the one page at the mo. It does the job and that's all that I wanted for today so very impressed. Have to say though the paypal shopping trolley bit I did and it is so easy! My dad reckoned it would be a nightmare but really easy to set up, took 2 card payments today through it at the fayre and have already requested to transfer the money into the bank! Very simple!
