Hi there. Thanks for joining me. So that was it for another year. We celebrated being in business for 27 years this weekend. Being in business or staying in business? Well, right now it certainly feels more like the latter! Running a business certainly got more challenging this year! Just got to go with the flow… All good though. Our new printed poppet parchment went down well, as did Josie’s new diagonal grids, the new Designer papers, Lucy’s new Tweet…
Hi there Thanks for popping in. Just sitting here, waiting for the last TV Live Skype link of the day, and thought I‘d blog a little thank you note while I wait. Thank you.

Thank you for giving me a reason to keep going, although I am pretty cream crackered this evening ! tomorrow at 8 am I will be back on Hochanda with…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Can’t stop long! Got to figure out a Plan B for the Weekend Wow!! Where did all those little printed parchment poppets fly off to, I wonder?!? So happy you like them as much as we do! Whilst we are figuring out what to do instead, I want to take you on a whistle-stop tour of italy! How do Rome, Florence, Venice and Naples sound? Pretty blimming good to me!! Josie has been super…

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Mind the piles of demo boxes and stuff as you come in though! Looks like it’s been burgled in here!! I really ought to have a quick tidy up before tomorrow morning.

Hi there. Thanks for popping in. How has your day been? Mine has been great so far, so I won’t spoil it be worrying that I didn’t get enough TV prep done. It just takes as long as it takes. What I have done is fine – and certainly enough to get the Birthday launch ball rolling! I still want to do a little bit to my SHAC-Shack eagles before end of play today, and then I can get a…
Hello there! Thank you for popping in. Remember I told you about our little shopping expedition last week? When I took Mum to Marks & Sparks for the first time since lockdown? Well, it being the first time I had been to a proper supermarket since March too, I think I got a little over exuberant, and bought way too much fresh fruit ! Way too much of everything really. Oooh Plums! Oooh Cherries! Oooh Mango! etc etc etc. 3…
Hi there Thanks for joining me. How quickly did today fly by? One minute you’re putting your lippy on, getting all ready set go for the 9am SKYPE TV show. The next minute, major rush of blood to the head when the sound dies and you lose the SKYPE connection. Can’t hear Paula, can’t hear anybody. Nada. By the time you re-establish the SKYPE connection, the stamps have pretty much sold out and the job’s done. The hour was over…
Hi there. Thanks for popping in. Just for today, I will enjoy today. I had a great morning in the SHAC Shack with my doodling buddies. Next stop pottery. Got some pots to turn and some pots to titivate before they go in the kiln. Then head over to my parents with Dave, and take Mum out to MarksnSparks for our first Supermarket excursion since lockdown in March. Got to be done. I can feel it’s time. I have prepped…

Well, first of all, don’t be disappointed if it wasn’t your turn this time; be happy for these folks! Friday we had a Perga Liners and Postcards Giveaway,…
