We have a tie!! Two winners!!!!
Thanks for popping in.
– the end of the Olympics.
So let’s wrap up our Blogathon too.
It has been fun.
I have to say, I think the trampoline was definitely my forté.
I’m ready!
Right at the beginning of our Blogathon, we had a little wager,
and I challenged you to make a tribute card to TEAM GB
using our Clarity Flagstamps, remember?
then I challenge you to use it to make a cool
Team GB Olympic Card.
Email me a copy and we will pick a winner.
Thank you so much if you joined in!
We had some really lovely entries –
I have picked these 2 fab cards.
Aren’t they super??
To keep it simple,
why don’t we just send a £20 Gift Voucher to both

Well done Donna and Penny! Fantastic cards! I think you will be fine for Tokyo Barbara! I'm thinking about the cycling as hubby has out his bike on a stand in the garage – I need a step to get on and off it but once on I can cycle to my hearts content ! However a softer saddle would be good! Xx
Know just how you feel Jackie!! Love Alison xx
Hi Jackie did your ring clarity to sort your plates hugs xxx

Hi everyone, had a shock today and if I had anything to put in perspective it would he been today. We went for,lunch with the 'prostate' men. I could see one of them Had lost weight and was very pale and after letting us have lunch his wife broke the new that last week he'd been diagnosed with pancreatic and liver cancer. I don't think I need say anymore. they were a breath of fresh air in how they're dealing with it but it brought back a lot of memories of our dear friend and neighbor who had pancreatic and now of source our friend who has liver c. Talk about it being all around. we just count ourselves lucky.
Hugs to,all that need them. Sorry for bad new but it helps,to talk,about it. Xx
That is such sad news, Jackie. I feel for you It is hard to get your head around such things. Lots of hugs. xxx Maggie
Thinking of u sad news. Always good to talk. Hugs x
Jackie,
That is very sad news. I know how you feel – 5 of the people I played netball with( out of 9) have been diagnosed with breast cancer. I had to go for mammogram last week and when the envelope came through the letterbox this morning I was really scared about opening it, but fortunately it was good news! Feel free to talk about it on here and we will all try to help you out. Love and hugs Alison xxx
Hi Jackie,such sad news but last week one of my neighbours came to see me and told she has early stages of breast cancer so fit and always on the go. So I can see how you feel. But all though we sometimes don't know how to.react it is still good to talk. Hugs Lynn xx
I left you a message above before I read this so apologies ,Such sad news Jackie it seems that so many people suffer cancer around us now it's always good to share hugs xxx
I'm so sorry to hear your news Jackie, it is indeed a terrible disease. But the recovery rate is getting better and better each year. I totally understand how scary this news will have been for you, but please remember to think positive….Don't spoil today for yourselves by worrying about tomorrow! Love and Hugs xxx
Jackie I'm sorry to hear your sad news, you will all be there for your friend and will support each other, that's what your lunches are for. You know you are always welcome to chat on the blog and share your worries, that's what we are here for. Sending hugs to you both xxx

Brenda, stop saying your brain is useless. Reading your posts proves that your brain is far from useless, it just works slightly differently than others.
