IS it coming to a Spring clean in St. Hils?

I am not sure I SHOULD be showing you the photos below as they show me up at my worst when it comes to organisation and tidyness when it comes to all things St. Hils.......but hang...............think what you will.........here they are and I am NOT proud!
I was considering having a New Year photo using our bells and bell tower.............however I opened my bell tower door and realised rather quickly that a bit more than a bit of Spring cleaning and tidying was in order.............................as you can sadly see below...............

You see during my photo shoots I need a QUICK escape route for placing my "little things" that are "in the way" of the camera....................things that are annoying me by falling over like my processional cross.

However I guess the photo above is living proof of rather more..........ie............I am just TOO lazy to put things away properly and so my upper bell tower has become a repository for.........well lets see..............Frances of Buttercup Miniatures' Christmas pudding that I used in my Christmas day home page photo............a peach (made by my sister, Catherine of Dollshouse Heaven) which I found a few months ago under the altar long after we had set up and dismantled our harvest page......... some business cards picked up at the last Miniatura Show (I hang on to them so that I can credit the suppliers of my props on St. Hils)....the altar floral arrangement which has had some flowers pulled out so is not quite respectable to put BACK on the altar yet.......................some holly and ivy used during August/September for our Advent Calendar and Christmas pages..................baby Clarissa's Afghan blanket used by Robert Alexander for his shepherd photo in the Advent Calendar..................shall I go on?  The towel, by the way, is a protection for both free range hand reared cockatiel and church............

Perhaps not.........but BEFORE I go on if you look hard at the above photo I have missed something off........or more accurately...........some ONE!  It is none other than our lady of the road, Rita.  I placed her up there because she told me she was finding it difficult to rest or have any peace at all when sitting in her usual place at the top of the stairs..............poor Rita.........she loves the children and the babies..........but sometimes it is nice to have some peace and quiet...  So it crossed my mind that she may feature in a New Year front page photo up in the bell tower.................but then again she may not............after all bells are VERY noisy when ringing in the New Year!  Oh well......we will see how she feels about that one when the time comes!

Oh dear....................I have strayed into fantasy land again.......sorry about that..............

I have to confess that I DO  have a safe repository for nearly all of St. Hils more precious "little things" and that is actually a case which has special sponge pillows inside in order to protect the more delicate items..............as below..................

Oh dear..........yes you are right - it DOES look rather untidy as I have laid it out for you all to see.................At a glance I like to keep.......Percy Spider in his case and be assured he is actually in his own special box provided for him on purchase (from Tinytails Miniatures) as is our butterfly also provided by Tinytails Miniatures.............cleaning materials including a duster, feather duster, broom etc  (cleaning never stops in St. Hils.......) Catherine's "Tudor carrot colour wheel" with sunflower in the middle....................and no......I think I will stop there as you have all got the general gist here!

I have to confess I also have a small chest of drawers too which is full of St. Hils props...............altar cloths and stoles for different liturgical seasons...............a couple of big margarine tubs filled again with so many different things.........Easter eggs and bunnies..............chicks.............stand up cross.........the list is endless here.  It is a wonder there is room for anything else in our lounge to be honest!

My collection of props just keeps growing as you can all imagine.................the latest being........"Gracie Cakes" and my board games................and speaking of "Gracie Cakes" you all may like to know that I have put the photo below on the home page together link to a downloadable card/notelet with the photo on......

I am particularly loving this new card I created today.........................."G" for "Gracie" works so well when you use "Gracie Cakes".........................hope you like it too........................amazing how creative I felt with these "Gracie Cakes"..............

I am off now..................tomorrow we visit my mother in law.  I am taking her the photos and story taken from our new page on Gracie, GP and Prince.......................she is my number one fan!

Till the next time........
PS I have a small apology to make to our visitors........some of the new downloadable cards may not have had a full border around the picture when printed out..............so I have edited and re-uploaded all affected and also have managed to reduce the byte size too for ease of download...................sorry about that folks..................I could have kicked myself when I noticed it today...............

A Good Christmas and New Year to all of our visitors to St. Hils and more.

Hiya Everyone
Firstly - as it is Christmas morning here in the UK  I want to wish you all a happy and blessed Christmas and New Year as do ALL at St. Hilary's!

I also thought I would share a few things I have been doing over the last few days alongside one small calamity which looks like it won't ever be resolved courtesy the thick pile on our carpet upon which the dining table with miniature church stands.............but such is life and no point crying over spilt milk is there?

I have been busy pulling together the various photos (and taking a few more too!)  taken of our "children" playing various board games over the last few weeks with the aim of creating a Games Afternoon  page which introduces Gracie, GP and Prince to St. Hils formally for the first time.  As I checked the adhoc photos taken........ie children playing snakes and ladders.........chess................solitaire...........dominoes etc......I quickly realised that the back drop and props were sometimes completely different so I knew it was impossible to palm it all off as a "one day event" as it were.  So you will see that we have put it online as a series of events and "one off" occasions instead where Gracie may or may not be there at the time.  I hope you all enjoy the new page!

I have deliberately NOT given too much away about Prince...........and have yet to work out HOW he was found roaming and wandering in and out of church...........especially as he is NOT a stray........but I have made sure you all aware that he IS an ex-guide dog and has been taken in by Rev Ken and family.  However an "ex-guide dog" he HAS to have some kind of history inorder to explain WHY he didn't quite "make the grade".  I DO have in mind the main reason..........but it will become apparent as time moves on. 

I must share with you here a photo which didn't quite make it to the new page itself....unyet I really LOVE it.  I took it using just natural light during yesterday and with my Canon 980 Ixus on a stand, image stabiliser turned off, on manual mode, ISO 200 and long shutter speed determined by the camera's intellect and not mine!  I also had the ten second timer on too in order to eliminate camera shake....

I think it looks really good - AND crystal clear even on the full size version which is not seen here for obvious reasons!  I felt it was TOO dark to entertain on the page itself but for some reason or other it gives such atmosphere too....................................hope you all agree with me there!  Note that "Christmas cards" are still being advertised behind the children!  I did pull that leaflet off in later photos however.  I tell you - so many "faux pas" on this new page and this is one of them!  However I still hope that it works for all our visitors even so..........

Before moving on from "faux pas", I was most indignant when I accidentally flicked a small black draught off the board whilst trying to slide it into place with a miniature candle!  You would THINK that a miniature candle would be a better tool for this delicate job than a clumsy finger of mine.......WRONG!  That was after the umteenth attempt which, when finally accomplished each time, was scoobered AGAIN by a botched attempt by myself to add another prop to the scene to give added interest but only succeding in knocking something else over........booooooooooooooooo

You all may also have noticed that I have also completed a clean sweep on our Downloads page where you will find that ALL the old "general" cards have been deleted but, in their place, are six brand new ones which I spent time yesterday creating alongside two New Year cards too.
Hope you all like the new selection.......


Anyway...................I better leave you all in peace as we plan to arrive in time for a Christmas morning service at our church for 10.30 and Andrew will soon be running upstairs to see what I am up to....................poor chap..........
Till the next time.

A short one from me today..........to share a photo I took when my sister came around...

Hiya Everyone!
You will be pleased to know I have my mitts on some new props for St. Hils..........I will not share them with you quite yet although some who have read my previous blogs may well work out what at least one set of items are but I am giving no clues here unless, of course, you fancy back tracking my blogs and see if you CAN work it out...........
My sister, Catherine, came around today as we exchanged our usual presents etc and she brought some of her latest work to show off to me.  Of course I have seen it already on her website ie Dollshouse Heaven and in an email attachment but today I was able to see them in the flesh as it were.....

I decided it would be fun to pose this ceramic basket with flowers in St. Hils using a couple of my "children" as models................as you can see above Adele, again, has won the task after begging the others to let her be THE one to hold the basket..........................such a media girl as she is......  Robert Alexander is so intrigued to see these flowers too he can hardly take his eyes off them...........and Eric (father to Ernest) is also fascinated and thinks the flowers smell really lovely......  If you want to find out more about this beautiful ceramic basket and flowers visit Catherine's Flowers page where she is selling this one and another one with a lemon basket.

I have quite a bit of work to do now of course.................I plan a new photo for the front page of our site to coincide with Christmas but I am not letting you know yet what it is................you will have to visit on Christmas Day to find out. Also...........I need to regress my age (oh if that were REALLY possible! and if it were - would I really want to regress this far..........21 will be fine) and try to think like a seven year old in order to complete a little job...............and it involved crayons, a tin and some drawing ........oh and yes.......some paper to write on of course................wish me luck.....................

I will be back............after I have played with a few more photo shots inside St. Hils....................well of course.....
Tlil the next time.....
PS NO apple and custard doughnuts in Marks and Spencers today - booooooo.............the label was on the shelf but there were some OTHER kinds of doughnuts on there.................NOT the ticket at all...............................such cruel deception for someone such as myself who had been looking forward to this moment all morning whilst at work........

ANOTHER Calendar calamity........this time discovered whilst doing a spot of personalisation......

Hiya Everyone!
You know.............gremlins have been playing inside my computer again...............they seem to particularly love MS Word for some strange reason and the most recent one is...............Advent SUNDAY was suddenly on the following Monday - what is that about?  I can assure you all that I have immediately set to and amended the downloadable calendar affected so those who have already downloaded version 1 please feel free to download it again  here as it IS perfect as far as I know.....until someone tells me different of course................The version 2 which prints a photo and calendar per page is unaffected which again begs the question - HOW did the first version go so astray?
However if anyone HAS noticed this mistake before me...................be assured only GOD is perfect as I have said before.................it is my excuse and I am sticking to it!  So folks if anyone has given anyone a copy of this calendar in good faith you have your answer if the question is raised...........................

I expect you are all wondering HOW I found out about my latest calendar calamity?  Well it all stems from a little exercise that I had in mind and that was to print out a couple of personalised copies of the calendar for a couple of my work colleagues who each have various pets. 

You may remember that our new "girl on the block, Gracie, (as above!) has her very own pet guinea pig called "GP".  "GP", is named after a REAL guinea pig who is owned by a friend and work colleague.  It seemed a great idea to see if we could add the real "GP" to some of our calendar photos so that he too has visited our church...................so in that task I have created a special personalised calendar for my work friend which includes not only her pet, GP, but also her wirehaired dachshund, Klaus, who is still a puppy but has already won a prize or certificate in dog shows this year.

See above that I have also added our adorable hand reared pied cockatiel to the strange mix although I am not at all sure if Klaus would really appreciate having a hat named Pebbles!  GP, ie the REAL one,.....IS here......he is hiding behind Ambrose' trousers...............he is just having a little nibble of some greenery he found in the churchyard.........

I am dying to share something else with you too with regards to our Gracie.........but that will have to wait til I have more to tell and show you......................so instead I just want to share a little more with you about our rather different Christmas carol which I chose for today on our Advent Calendar (ie Sunday 20th December).

During the Summer I was canvassing far and wide for ideas for carols for inclusion on the calendar and so it felt SO right to be as international as our church congregation and clergy........hence a German and French carol for starters......although yes - I know we have, as yet, NO French person, but who knows what the future may bring.............
I was particularly keen to have something Australian because, after all, our vicar and "lady of the road, Rita, were both made by Rachel Fritz, an Australian friend of ours. So when another Australian friend suggested "Christmas in the Shrub" and emailed me the words I was, at once, most intrigued by it........my imagination ran riot imagining wallabies, wombats and kangaroos to mention a few hopping about INSIDE St. Hils.................................  Copyright was the immediate concern but I had no reason to worry as our friend knew Leigh Newton, who wrote the carol, and was able to ask on our behalf and it was gladly granted on the provision that a link was provided to their website where visitors can actually buy a CD with the carol on.  We urge you all to give the site a visit and let them know how you found them...........plug plug!

I will try to resist letting you in to my latest excited secret for St. Hils in the New Year.............all I can say is it involves our Gracie in a big way.............and, instead, leave with another photo which I personalised for GP (the real one!) and his family's St. Hils Calendar for 2010...........enjoy!

Til the next time...................which may not be too long at all as I am too excited to let you hang on for too long waiting here.............

PS If you can't see GP so well above in the wheel barrow......here he is sporting his very own Christmas hat .....isn't he SO cute.........almost as cute as Gracie's pet, GP!

PPS...........added at 17:36 GMT Sunday..........just had an horrific afternoon..........came upstairs this afternoon to find PC was switched off and dead as a dodo.............Andrew changed the fuse......we switched the power supply but nothing...........so up to PC World where an angel in the form of a tech support guy took the machine off us, opened it up before our eyes, proclaimed it needed a new power unit and proceeded to do the job for us...........then he found that the processor's fan was bust so replaced that in the nick of time because we were in danger of burning the processor out.  Talk about "God's timing" being perfect...........if the power supply had not broken we would have lost our processor completely..........
We were panicking because we had backed up - but not in the last few days..........and uploading my daily Calendar is a MUST as I don't want to let you all down who visit each day faithfully.....

Continuing memory lane.............this time remembering Emily's story.......

Hiya Everyone!
Firstly I hope you liked young Robert Alexander posing as a shepherd on today's  Advent Calendar page!  Poor Georgie and baby Clarissa though..............................

I have been reminiscing..........with particular emphasis on the dolls that came from my mother's Welsh display cabinet in order to live in St. Hils.  There is one in particular who has a special place and that is Emily!  Emily, I feel, had quite a life BEFORE she came to St. Hils.  To explain....................my sister, Catherine, of Dollshouse Heaven used to love sitting Emily in her corner shop.  This is not any old shop but actually a hardware shop.  You can see it in its full glory here...................

Catherine, if I am correct, modelled it on a similar scene she had seen at the Black Country Living Museum.   She is very keen on social history and it has very much fed her interest in miniatures as she attempts to recreate scenes from the past.  It is Catherine who made me aware that carrots in Tudor times were PURPLE and not orange and she even provided me with a purple carrot colour wheel for one of my Harvest Festival pages in order to add a unique splash to the occasion.

Sadly you can't see the stool that Emily sat on whilst she was living there. For anyone wondering.........yes..........Catherine DID place ALL those wooden boards on the wall individually!


So far Catherine has created a war time cafe just after a bomb has struck and an up and coming idea is an Andersen shelter.....again an idea taken from the Black Country Living Museum.

This shop, which has a living room upstairs, was one of Catherine's earlier projects. The upstairs living room is permanently set up for Christmas..........with paper chains, presents around the fireplace ........festive food made especially for the occasion by Catherine herself...........Our late mother, Hilary, REFUSED to let Catherine EVER take the Christmas decorations down whilst she was alive so even to this day............the upper room in the corner shop is all ready for Christmas Day.......................  Although on that issue I have a small confession because Catherine allowed me to raid it in order to put my Advent Calendar together.....so many of the extra presents on some of our Advent Calendar pages are courtesy of Catherine's corner shop.......thanks Catherine! 

You can see the upper living room below on the day I "borrowed" some presents....oh yes AND a couple of Christmas cards you also see on my Advent Calendar..................but BEFORE I vandalised it.............Note also the Tudor style wooden beams in the ceiling........all executed by Catherine herself MOST ably....

Catherine even wrote a story around Emily and the corner shop too...............and it is Catherine who named her..........well of course.  It is also Catherine who spelt out her character to me and I can almost quote her here as she told me, when she passed her over to me....... that Emily "is a complete tomboy who, when not attending church, would rather be up a tree!"  We both liked that idea for Emily because it explained away something rather unfortunate..........................................see below for the worst case scenario when photographing poor Emily............and before you ask - I have NO idea how things got to this stage of untidiness.............

As you can well imagine - this photo, which was taken for the page featuring the children completing a lesson by Miss Lorna Webb on the topic of Pentecost,...........NEVER saw the light of day..............well ...until today of course!

As you all will have gathered......the issue of her awful untidy hair was no issue to me at all.......it just added more fun to the story............talk about the poor girl having been dragged through a bush backwards.....Emily certainly qualified for that one poor girl!

However as with all things.............life NEVER stands till and so it was that one day whilst posing Emily the inevitable happened and horror or horrors.........I dropped her and by some awful accident she lost half of one of her legs.  Now I KNOW that I make great play of how accidents give birth to new storylines......but after this particular accident I was completely at sea......after all HOW do we pose Emily with only half of one leg? 
All was well after a word with Jane Davies, who made Emily originally.  She agreed to take poor Emily back to her home and, because she no longer used the kind of body Emily had, gave her a NEW body.  However Emily not only was bestowed with a new body......but a NEW hairstyle too..................see how she looked on her return.......and imagine the surprise of her Sunday School friends when they saw their pal looking SO tidy with her hair all brushed and with a ribbon.......

It is quite a while now since the above photo has seen the light of day on St. Hils website................but with so much going on I have to make hard decisions from time to time as to what to keep and what to delete.......and as it gets bigger the decisions get bigger.................. 

I love here how you can almost immediately see that Emily has not changed one bit because the jar of tadpoles is rather tell tale isn't it?  So she is STILL a tomboy, albeit a "tidy" one (for now?!), as she shows off her newly caught tadpoles to her friend, Priscilla Jane!  Again no prizes for guessing who made the tadpoles (some still for sale on her website...) ........well my sister Catherine of course.....

Well - that is all for now.....................but DO remember to keep checking out our Advent Calendar as each day unfolds.............there are still a few surprises to come too............................cos the children and congregation have been pretty creative this year with their Advent calendar......................
Till the next time

I hope you are all enjoying our Advent Calendar.....

Hiya Everyone!
I hope you are all enjoying our Advent Calendar!  I have to say it has been quite interesting for ME too and I will tell you why.  You see as some of you will know I put the calendar together back in August/September so I seriously have NO idea what is on each page anymore until I check it over and upload it.  Every day it has become exciting as I check out what is in store for tomorrow.................(is that called a "senior moment?)

You will have noticed that I have tried to have a balance of "old and new".  The children have walked down memory lane and insisted on including some old favourite photos of times remembered in St. Hils.....as well as enjoying new photos being taken of them too............

The church started off life as a glorified room box in all reality.  I can honestly say that, when I check over the old photos of the church before the extension, I am truly amazed HOW I managed to make so much out of it in terms of furniture rearranging, liturgical changes required for each church season..........and most of all the stories I came up with.
And so.......(yes - I KNOW it is not grammatically correct to start a sentence with an "and"......lol!) I fancied taking you on a trip down St. Hils' memory lane.......................

I have had to delve into my archive here to show you some really OLD photos...............

This photo (as above) is how the church looked after we had our original delivery of furniture from Sharon and Mark Stockton of Stockton Miniatures in the USA...  This WAS the very first Christmas scene we ever set up in St. Hils too. 

Poppy (seen here on her very first Christmas in St. Hils!)  was our very first member of the Sunday School and she was shortly joined by Clarissa Elizabeth, her baby sister..............  Poor Poppy and baby Clarissa because, to begin with, they were effectively orphans.......as we had yet to work out WHO their parents would be.  We still haven't introduced their mother and if she IS mentioned she has no name.  Fortunately for us her father soon turned up as the curate, Rev Ken!

I MUST share a treasure I received in the post yesterday.  You all may remember me mentioning the passing away of my dear friend, Jan Craven back in October?  She was a great supporter of St. Hils of course and inspired me to keep the weekly collect taken from Common Worship on the website week by week. 
Rob, her husband, sent me the latest Holy Trinity Church Stratford upon Avon's magazine which had THE most wonderful tribute to her...........photos, a summary of her life as well as tributes from friends and family.
And so......................this took me back to quite a few years ago when it was Jan herself who suggested we had a patronal festival in St. Hils.  THANK YOU Rob if you are reading this!

However CAN you believe it cos I genuinely forgotten that St. Hils celebrated their patronal festival til today whilst perusing old archive photos. St. Hilary was a man of great faith....................and in his faith I think not just of my mother who originally inspired me to have him as our patron saint but also now of Jan too!

  You can all see above our two boys, Ben and Tom, singing a duet at the patronal festival as Poppy and the other children listened!  We are not sure that Poppy looks VERY impressed does she?

Apologies for the appalling ruddy/red cast on the photo but that sadly was the standard of my photography in those days courtesy of my very first digital camera, a Kyocera. (4 meg!)  I look back and wonder HOW such poor photography in what was, in essence, a room box masquerading as an old village parish church, attracted the visitors it did.   Our  guest book archive bears witness to this though as we have guest book entries dating right back to December 2003 which was only a few weeks after my dear mother died.

Returning to the matter of a patronal festival.  It will be NO surprise to you that it was Jan who found and emailed me the collect for St. Hilary's day too.  In fact it falls in January and so I am tentatively considering another special patronal festival this coming January and, although I am not going to make a great announcement of the fact, in my heart it will be done in her memory as it was HER idea after all!

I have NO idea WHAT our story line/s will be............and you will be interested to know I often don't!  I set the dolls up in various poses after having a few rough ideas......................and sometimes mistakes and accidents occur which add an interesting twist to the story.......................  I particularly remember one storyline currently on the website which was completely accidental..................it involved Robert Alexander whom I had posed sitting near the altar rail.  Unfortunately he fell over slightly and ended up resting his head on the altar rail. 

You can read more of the story on our website Blessing of the Altar Rail page...........  I decided he fell asleep as his eyes are set to appear to be looking down slightly so lending themselves neatly to the storyline..........

DO keep coming back day by day to see what other photos the children have posed for and chosen for each day..................I particularly LOVE a couple of photos where the children insisted on dressing up for the occasion and posing as........................?...and a ...................?

Til the next time

PS. Andrew did so well playing for his father's thanksgiving service this Tuesday gone. We have Jan to thank here too.........you see we loved the way that the committal was also done as part her church thanksgiving service last month and thought it would work well for Dad's thanksgiving service.too.  It worked so well as it enabled all who came to share in the whole service whilst the family were released to attend the many who came to bid Dad farewell.............as we shared together in the church hall afterwards over light refreshments etc........

Of Christmas and other card killer mistakes.............all mine of course!

Hiya Folks
I have to share with you my latest faux pas. Sadly it was pointed out to me only a short time ago by one our visitors and I am very grateful to them for it too.................................here is the worst below........see if you can spot the problem.........

Um...............HOW did I miss that one pray?..................worrying times me thinks if my sight is failing THIS badly!  Poor Alice................she has no mention at all .........and WHERE is Homer in all of this Christmas morning activity......?

Also..............poor Miss Enid has been wearing "oran shoes" for a long time too.............and I never noticed!  Poor Miss Enid!  However be assured these two and other mistakes pointed out to me today have been duly corrected.  She is now wearing proper "organ shoes" again!
I apologise to all those out there who have been disappointed as a result of my poor workmanship!

Seriously..........I really rely on all of you out there to be let me know if you spot anything amiss on the site.  It has grown so big (my stats state over 500 urls now!) that it has almost become TOO big for me to keep complete control of....................but I still LOVE it of course and will continue to add and edit it as my storylines develop and change..................

Just noticed another "faux pas" and it is on our Advent Calendar Day 7....................anyone spot it?  I will give ONE clue and it concerns Rev Ken.........

Work tomorrow.....................and a sad day on Tuesday as it is my father in law's funeral day and Andrew is to play for the funeral.......................  Mum is a great supporter of St. Hils though and that has helped cheer her spirits just a little even in this, her darkest hour............

Lets hope Adele's popularity in the media doesn't go to her head!

Hiya Everyone!
I am back again and much happier too now we can edit and upload our changes to St. Hils after the technical support team resolved the problem so quickly!  I had an email from them when I arrived home to say the problem was resolved............and sure enough it was!
Enough of that and on to the real business of the day and that concerns our young star, Adele!  I am a tad worried about her and I will explain why.
You all may remember how Christiane, the editor of The Dollshouse Magazine, gave our new Advent Calendar a little plug in the December edition?  Well for those who haven't seen it.......the star of the show on that occasion was...........Adele!  She even remembers the picture being taken of her standing on a chair decorating the church Christmas tree last year.  When she saw herself in the December edition she wasted NO time telling everyone at church too!

Imagine her surprise when she saw the January edition..............and who's photo did she see in this magazine?...............no surprises for guessing.........HERS of course!  There she was actually TALKING to Christiane at the Miniatura Show back in October when she went with Ben, Tom and Esther!  Do pay a visit to our Miniatura Visit page and see how they all did if you haven't already done so.

Adele wasted NO time did she?.................she HAD to spread the news of her newly found fame to all her Sunday School friends...................and here you can see her telling Robert Alexander ALL about it.............

I am not sure how interested Robert Alexander is though............I think he looks ready to give a big yawn........and who can blame him because she has even decided to bring her Miniatura brochure to church to remind people............

Oops - again a stray into fantasy land......................................However I thought that you all deserved something more positive after reading my whinging about uploading problems...............................

I leave you with Georgie, Prince and Eric having a little chat.......................ummmmmm..............I  feel THEY look a tad bored with Adele................because she is plainly droning on.........and on.............and on...........about her new fame after finding her latest media appearance in The Dollshouse Magazine January 2010 edition...........................lets just hope it doesn't go to her head!

Til the next time...........

Problems on our Advent Calendar are now RESOLVED - HOORAY!

Hiya Folks
Just to tell you that all is back to normal now and our Advent Calendar is now up and running WITH Day 4!
Thanks for all of your patience folks!
I will be blogging again later on today so keep checking this out.................won't let you know what it is about til later though just to keep you all guessing.......
Til the next time!
Sx
