grrrr council

well council rang me to say they couldnt come weather too bad to reseal window so have to wait. Came home weds after shopping to find bath SHEET folded up on windowsill so wet it was dripping on floor. Replaced with tupperware tub that was full in an hour!!! in 3 hrs filled 3 litre jug phoned at 4.30 to tell them and was promised someone within 3hrs ... he just made it with 5mins to spare but as it was almost 7.30pm was pitch black so he couldnt see a thing outside and was a plumber not a brickie so checked to make sure none of pipes in bathroom leaking as its right above where the leak is and they are all fine so need a brickie to check wall outside. Next morning yet another plumber arrived to say exactly same so now im still waiting for a brickie grrr.

However on a positive note I have WON my first ever blog candy and im so excited lol cant wait for it to arrive thank you so much  Michelle at Shells-crafts xxx

hello and sorry .....

Im so bad at updating my blog when im on here im so busy reading everyone elses I forget to do mine and then get carried away with crafting after being inspired by everyones works I really am going to try and post more often.
I went sale shopping yesterday with friends and have most of my bits for next xmas lol LOVE LOVE LOVE the boots sale lol also treated myself to some perfume (half price just had todo it lol) both Cerrutti 1881 perfume and Eternity gift set for £32.50 bargain x

I have decided I am going to try to make at least 2 xmas cards a week so that im not in as much of a rush with my own cards like I was this year even down to making my sons card christmas day morning lol good job he was staying at his girlfriends lol had to do 4 cards altogether before 1pm as was being picked up to go to friends for the rest of the day lol.
Going to treat myself to the A3 cutting mat from the range as soon as they have them back in stock and saving for a Big shot or similar next year any help on which to go for would be much appreciated from those of you out there that already have them xxx
Right better get off here and get some work(crafting maybe as well ) done xxx
Happy New Year to all xxx
