Hello and welcome from another member in Scotland! (I would say Scottish but I'm only a half-breed! Scots Mum/English Dad).
That's awful that your Ex threw out all your stuff! I'm sure all the members here will help you to gather more stash (mostly by telling us when there are sales on!).
What part of Scotland are you in?
I'm in Dalkeith just outside Edinburgh.

Welcome from Australia and great to have you with us. What a horrible thing for your ex to do, but good to know he is now your ex.
Looking forward to seeing your WIP's. If I can get pics up anyone can using photo bucket. There is a thread about it in Tips and Tricks.
