Not a problem. I don't use the site a great deal, but it's useful on occasions... smile.gif

Something else you can do is say you are (or might be coming) to the East London Clarinet Choir woodwind playday. Put 'East London Clarinet Choir' in the search box and go from there... smile.gif

Done! I was up at 5:15 this morning because my Mum had locked herself out of the house before going off to work (she pushed the keys back through the door so that Shan and I would have them, but forgot that she hadn't lifted the other set with the car keys) and called me on my phone while I was sleeping so that I could come down and open the door for her rolleyes.gif Stupid woman...! laugh.gif

I was making a large, golden, tinsel bedecked (terribly baroque) star for our Nativity scene. I never was very visually artistic and I suspect this looks more like a metorite than the Star of Bethlehem. Oh well!

I was still making props for the Christmas Celebration. I have stuck enough stars ,and designed enough envelopes for Father Christmas to last a lifetime and have frantically searched for and thankfully found three stuffed lambs( the toy sort, not the roasted ones!) and cut logs for the shepherds' fire.

Problem is, I am so unobservant that I didn't realise an assignment score had been published for one of my current courses last week! wink.gif I only saw it yesterday, after trying to find some answer on the FirstClass area for my course!




I was wondering whether moving upstairs would be good, so I can work at a desk rather than on my lap. I think I know the answer already. tongue.gif

I was chatting to my mum on the phone. She called just as I burst into tears after splitting the material on my 2nd last pair of jeans (all the others are far too big now), and she cheered me up. And she said she'll fix them if I can manage until Christmas. wub.gif smile.gif (Probably sounds trivial, sorry!)
