    Thanks for your support, all of you.
    I'm still battling with the paperwork and the endless phonecalls that lead me up a very confused path:confused: Folk I want are 'out of the office', will call back and don;t...........:mad:
    Had to come up for air and log on for some sanity..............lol:rotfl:
    Tomorrow I'll make a Thankyou card for the care home and put the endless paperwork away for a while - I fancy playing with my glue and paper........lol:rotfl:
    Mary

    I'm creative -you can't expect me to be neat too !

    Mary - my Grandad died last year and my Mum handled everything - I couldn't believe all that was involved, there's so much to organise. I hope you get everything sorted soon.

    I found a really good buy, I bought myself one before. Its a K and Co scrapbook kit (RAINMAC!!!). Its in the verbena range which is quite vintage/classy and is purples and greens. The pack is 9.20 and for that you get an 8.5 x 8.5 paper pad (36 sheets), 2 packs of embellishments, then you get a scrap kit in the same range - 6 12x12 sheets of paper, 2 packs of embellishments and a pack of stickers. Here's the link:
    http://www.art-of-craft.co.uk/acatalog/Sale.html
    The pack is about half way down the page, here's a close up of what you get:
    http://www.art-of-craft.co.uk/acatalog/info_585148.html
    and you'll find it under the heading "pad and scrapbook kit".
    If you spend under 10 quid (which I did), postage is 1.50, so I spent 10.70!
