I had to go and collect my parcel. Postmen were delivering redeliverys only, but unfortunatly my son also had one which he hadn't got round to requesting, they delivered that instead. So took the drive to the collection office and picked it up.

It was my parcel from craft collection.

If ever you're thinking of getting rid of him, let me know.... :-)

They are gorgeous! Angel Song is so pretty *keeps herself forcibly from going anywhere near the Silkweaver site*

Yes! Got my second package of fabric from Craft Company - eventually as it got held up in the post room at work; and I got some Anchor threads that I'd seen on eBay. They look okay.

I also got some worming tablets and Frontline flea treatment for the dogs.... :?
