Thursday is here

Good morning Ladies and Gents,

It sounds like you had fun and games yesterday sue, I hope every thing has dried out now.
It's a really beautiful morning here in North London, I love autumn, the sun is out shining on the leaves on the tree and they are all reds and yellows.

Today will be a packing day, we tend to leave every thing to the last minute so this time I'm going to do thing now instead for Friday night, all this washing is done so it just a case of packing and getting the cats stuff together.

What on your agendas today?

Have you all started your chrimbo cards yet? I have just got to make inserts and some envelopes for mine.

Breakfast is calling I think it will be toast with lemon curd again.

I hope you all have a great day and Sue step away for the washing machine

Lovely day here too Got to finish a card I started last night for my niece and have to go for my breast screening this morning Otherwise taking it easy today

Morning!

Lovely start to the day here in Nottinghamshire. Have to collect from nursery later on, plumber is coming today and I have a birthday card to do... cant really do that until the children have gone home- or unless Ben has a sleep!!! I have started my chirstmas cards, and coming along nicely with them. This year I am doing Tilda christmas cards and a little praying angel... they look cute! my favourite stamps atm!!!

Well better make a move.. have a lovely day

Have fun with the packing Mikki, its so much nicer than unpacking after the holiday as you still have all the wonderful anticipation of a great time

Jacky good luck hun with the screening, it really is one of the most uncomfortable test created by man. How do I know it was created by a man? no woman would think of such a contraption to torture other women. I remember when I was younger and far less endowed it was agony trying to pull enough over to rest on the machine. Nowadays its more a case of picking them up to drop them on the machine he he either way I don't like it So loads of hugs coming your way hun

Hope the birthday girls have a great day and hope the rest of you are making the most of the lovely sunshine we are having

I'm a glutton for punishment Mikkie - the washing machine is on again - well I had to do something with all the wet towels!

Beautiful day here too. Took Roy to doctors again this morning. He's noe on his 3rd lot of antibiotics. Let's hope they do the trick! Then cam home and pulled out all the bean plants and tomato plants ready for the garden waste collection tomorrow. Got to do some shopping this afternoon then the rest of the day is mine!

Help! is that the time already?
I'm sitting here in my nighty still.

Got side track (so what's new) trying to get publicity for a couple I know who are cycling from Land's End to John O Groats in aid of the MS Society.

I've been in touch with several radio and TV stations trying to get publicity for them. He has MS and is registered blind and she broke her back in a traffic accident. They are riding a specially built tandem-tricycle and are a real inspiration.

Was out before I should have been in on my appointment so I thought as I'm halfway to the Crafty Cow I might as well pop in Shouldn't have but I did think I might if I had plenty of time, spent lots again. I had a sneak preview of tomorrows Moovision absolutely fabulous but I did resist at the moment. I bought some black embossing paste (Wendy's fault as she told me about it) a rubber stamp, a refill for the ATG (which Ann kindly put in for me), some cuttllebug dies and some glue. No wonder Wendy thought it was a lot

Mmmh that sounds like a nice new stash there and plenty to play with he he

The trouble is I never seem to have time to play - got the glue to put some flower soft on the card I am making for my niece I have used some of the papers from the Making Cards mag, I never seem to use them but I am going through them now when I have a card to make as it seems such a waste not to use them

Oh Jacky glad you got your appointment over with quickly
Ouch
I have spent most of my time on the telephone this morning
Just generally clearing things up
Still haven't made an appointment for the Doctor
If you want to hear the end of the saga go to Moans & Groans and all will be revealed

I am the same with my papers from Making Cards
I just seem to use them for looking at
Talking about which...........I got the new Christmas special edition delivered today
WOW! WOW! WOW!
Ladies you simply MUST get this!!!
It is out of this world!!!!

I am going to try and convince Alan that a visit to the Crafty Cow is a must this weekend
He doesn't know it yet though so shhhh
After all I didn't get to the craft fair and I only got the TSV the other day
Which I managed to slip in casually in a conversation
I have been a good girl I have, well................most of the time

Hope the car does passes the test ok Jayne
I presume it is the same as the MOT here

Not sure if its me but I don't have an update post from you on Moans and Groans section

Just took so long to write Jen
As usual it wasn't simple

Ann has it in the shop so I had a glimpse of it. It looked good

It failed
and it will cost about €800 to replace the front cross member
which has gone rusty, the dam car is only 6 years old
I feel like screaming

Jayne

6 years old, that's awful. Must be all the rain you get in Ireland.

The guy at the test center told me Almeras
are prone to rust in that area, I wish someone
had told me that before I bought it
I am thinking about all the stash I could
buy with it

Bad luck Jayne - that's awful. That's a heck of a lot to pay out too - poor you. Looks like you'll have to get the bike out!

Bike in all this rain I dont think so
Then I would be rusty

You poor thing getting an unexpected bill for that amount, I would be gutted and suggesting paying him in kind .... boxes of cards, pah what did you think I meant he he

Hope tomorrow puts a smile back on your face
