Because John also uses the dining room as an office, we have a bedroom that i use as an office. The computer and printer are in there also a filing cabinet, but John likes to spread himself out so the dining table is ideal for him !!! He will does not do messy. Think it’s goes back to his Navy training! AND Crafters just work out life out better when they can sort out there own mess !!!!! xx<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Brenda https://www.blogger.com/profile/14121800821999942200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-8057359607185388402017-12-09T21:46:32.782+00:002017-12-09T21:46:32.782+00:00Oh dear Val I hope your sciatica improves soon.

The church in Bampton is apparently an Abbey well according to Robin her husband anyway. It was absolutely packed, but she was very popular in the village and did her best for everyone even though she was so ill herself. She decided she couldn't fight the Cancer anymore.<br />On a lighter note I've just st had a phone call from my cousin in Ireland. So we had a lovely long chat. She's off to stay with her daughter in Kent for Christmas so I'll ring her after Christmas and have a chat.

Pat, I'm...Hi Sandra and all in the Café today. <br />Pat, I'm so sorry I didn't say how lovely your cards were yesterday. I really love that star stamp set, it makes beautiful cards. I hope it all goes as well as funerals can today X<br />Sandra,I hope you had a quieter day yesterday and are feeling better again my lovely xx<br />Janet, what a coincidence. I finally got to Mums yesterday and she gave me my boxes that you had cut out and sent to us. Thank you so much, it was extra kind of you to cut them out of such beautiful card stock. I will be thinking carefully about who will get such a gorgeous box 😊 And what is the first picture to greet me on the blog this morning but some of your gorgeous boxes! What a happy coincidence. They are beautifully decorated and they certainly won't be screwed up and thrown in the bin as wrapping paper is. I hope you manage to get your shopping and are back.home before the shops get too busy X<br />Lynda, you will find yourself trying out many of the great ideas using the envelope punch board. It is so easy to use and there as countless things to hat can be made with it, far more than just envelopes. I think it is one of the most versatile pieces of kit in anyone's craft stash. Enjoy playing with yours, and that pretty die, it looks like you can use the outer die all year round which is really handy x<br />Michele, thanks for the reviews. I have the first magazine, the alphabet stamps are very similar to a Stamping Up set. Sandra and were intrigued to see that along with each letter of the alphabet there is a double tt. We couldn't work out why. Do you know? I must admit I haven't looked in the magazine yet so I suppose it may give me the reason why they thought tt would be useful. We decided that a double pp would be more useful as Happy is used a lot in sentiments. Anyway, I hope you managed to avoid the worst of the shoppers. I am off to Tesco in a while with a friend to get the drinks etc for the Scout group Bingo tonight. I try and avoid the shops on any weekend but especially these ones in December so think of me while you are, hopefully, relaxing with a nice warm cuppa and muffin in the Café. I will certainly need mine by the time we are finished 😊 x<br />Angela, what a good idea to have a wreath that will stand all weathers, a pretty way to decorate the front door. I do like the way that Canadians, and Americans I believe have different wreaths etc on show all year round on their front doors X<br />I must go and get ready to pick my friend up so I hope you all have a good day. Sending love and hugs to you all with extras for Lilian and all in need.

Thank you for your beautiful card which arrived yesterday.<br /><br />MICHELE- Thank you for the mag review. I just might pop down the aisle in WHS this morning to have a look.<br /><br />I love my box die more each time I use it. It's so simple to use and cuts beautifully through the Gemini. The ribbon and bows were from my Range visit earlier in the week.<br /><br />Off shopping this morning and thank goodness it's inside so it will be dry and warm. I suppose it will be heaving by 11.00 so hopefully we'll be ready to come home by then.<br /><br />The CAFE is OPEN for all who want to pop in.<br />There will be muffins for later this afternoon.<br /><br />PAT- I'll be thinking of you today.<br />HUGS are on their way to you all. xxxxjanethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14769057785697422382noreply@blogger.com
