Barrie will have returned back home feeling rested and relaxed after spending quality time with you. Sometimes it’s hard being a mum isn’t it. xx you never stop wanting to look after them. He knows that you are there for him.<br /><br />Today I have been trying to finish off some family cards and mak an 80th birthday card. I was getting nowhere fast. Ended up wrapping a few gifts by way of a distraction, tomorrow I must get the cards finished.<br />Sandra, Mr Brown delivered my expected parcel, thank you.<br /><br />Sleep well everyone, Hugs Brenda xxx<br /><br /><br />Brenda https://www.blogger.com/profile/14121800821999942200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-1610757129168277262017-12-19T20:25:58.335+00:002017-12-19T20:25:58.335+00:00Hi Sandra and all,

Hope the person who ordered them was pleased.<br />Sounds a bit more positive news re the house Sandra. Fingers crossed her husband agrees that a stair lift can be put in. Fingers crossed for you tomorrow.<br />Hospital today 2 appointments today. A bit of a wait between the two. We'll go and see about Pete's parking permit, and ask where your supposed to park. Your supposed to park in the numerous visitors car park dotted around the Churchill. In the many years we've been going up I've never seen any. According to the blurb you can't park in the pay and display, nor the staff car park ( you had to park in the staff car parks before ). <br />Well Jo my chripodist has just been to cut my toe nails. I now need to see one of my grandchildren to see if they can paint them before Christmas.<br />Amy our eldest granddaughter popped a card for Pete through the letterbox, plus 2 pkts of Terry chocolate orange and a bar of Lindt chocolate orange. The front of the card says.<br />Lots of Get Betterness coming your way. A good luck card for today. How lovely is that.Pat S Witneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01805104841993312589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-38013041119695435052017-12-19T08:35:55.649+00:002017-12-19T08:35:55.649+00:00Morning Sandra and all,

It would be so good for you to enter the Christmas period knowing you have somewhere to move to. Fingers crossed.xxx<br /><br />JANET love your two cards. I thought I knew these images as soon as I saw them as I too have the JS cd. I tend not to use my cds now as my printer is old and the colours all seem to have a red tinge. Bet your friend was delighted with the cards.<br />It's raining lightly here today and Gracie and I got as far as the front gate before she wanted to get back home. Funny little dog.<br />Just about to make Barrie some sandwiches for his flight home. I'm close to tears writing this as I really don't want him to go. Still I will see him in a month after our Egyptian holiday.<br />Have a good day everyone. Will catch up on everyone's news of the past few days, later.<br />Love ValxxxVal Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14766670798729908920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-65067772557623552362017-12-19T08:23:31.048+00:002017-12-19T08:23:31.048+00:00Two very pretty vintage style cards Scenes like Th...Two very pretty vintage style cards Scenes like These always remind me of that winter in the 60’s where I was young enough to play and enjoy it and not have the adult worries we have nowadays of traveling, getting stuck, falling over etc<br />My living room looks like a bomb site with Christmas wrapping paper and bits lying around Wonderful!<br />karenlottyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00314141032092834388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-21847877809226547842017-12-19T08:21:09.379+00:002017-12-19T08:21:09.379+00:00Morning ladies,

I've taken a couple of photos and just hope they show up the colours.<br /><br />Glad to hear there's a possibility you will be able to have peace with a new home found Sandra, just the Christmas present you need.<br /><br />I too love to receive traditional cards which sum up Christmasses past rather than the fun jokey ones that some people send. To me CHRIST belongs to this season not Xmas or risqué jokes.<br /><br />Busy day too for me, I am finally getting my dining room back. I have cleared a space next to my computer in the craftroom so that all the materials and costumes half finished can be stowed away until the New Year. And any rolls of material and sundry extras can go back to the Village Hall tomorrow. The skirts that took me 5-6 hours each to make have now come back as there are "too many panels and 5 need to be taken off" this after telling me there was not enough!!! I am heartedly fed up with it all now...Bah humbug!<br />Calm down Cheryl, it is just another blip.<br /><br />Onwards and upwards then, see you all later.<br /><br />Love 7 hugs<br />Cheryl xxx<br /><br /> cheryl brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890543787200668122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-3107514725734958912017-12-19T08:18:56.403+00:002017-12-19T08:18:56.403+00:00Lovely JANET I have gone for vintage scenes for my...Lovely JANET I have gone for vintage scenes for my neighbours Nothing as detailed as yours Mine are just on Serif - find a card size - choose an image - write a sentiment- print (embarrassingly easy) Enjoy your lunchkarenlottyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00314141032092834388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-57172386880101074182017-12-19T08:12:07.908+00:002017-12-19T08:12:07.908+00:00Morning Everyone

The die I used to cut out the shape is a VERSO set from Tonic - VICTORIAN FRAME LAYERING SET (19 dies in the set)and the images are from a CD which I bought years ago -Joanna Sheen NOSTALGIA collection artwork by a Yorkshire Artist KEVIN WALSH. This is a two CD set one celebrating Leisure Pursuits and the other Christmas.<br /><br />I'm out this lunchtime for a Christmas Lunch with K&N at one of our locals. <br /><br />The CAFE is OPEN and everything is ready and waiting for you all to pop in during the day/evening.<br />HUGS on their way to you all. xxxxjanethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14769057785697422382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-16180782140202303742017-12-19T07:16:20.521+00:002017-12-19T07:16:20.521+00:00Morning Ladies
