    Very quiet here today!
    I've had a skim and am left with the options of deleting/filing emails, ironing or doing my cross stitch! What an exciting life!
    :rotfl::rotfl:

    I'd go for the cross stitch :)

    going for that, found the glasses and mhoc, got the 'special' light!
    the cross stitch is a cushion cover kit I was given the Christmas before last, it features the Eiffel tower, I am sure that Mr blinking Gustav Eiffel built the whole blinking thing quicker than I will ever stitch one side of it!!

    You should see the one I'm doing, it is a Japanese garden including cherry blossom - individual cherry blossom, the detail is very demanding :eek:

    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.
