    Hope you slept ok. I wanted Chigs to win too. I think he has improved so much in a short time. 
    After all your talk of Christmas crafting you’ve inspired me to makes Christmas cards - I’ve spent a lovely couple of hours rediscovering my craft stash which I haven’t touched for years. My next task I’ll have to see if I can remember how to use my heat gun and do some stamping 👍

  • I'm not very crafty :( I did buy a Xmas cross stitch from the CS so perhaps i'll have a go at that.
    I've kept all 6 recipes from my HF boxes and made one of them again using my own ingredients.  I really liked them but they were too expensive for one person, as it is just me most of the time.  
    I liked Chigs too!
    Hope you managed some sleep OBL
