Thank you...

A big thank you for your words of condolence on the demise of my hard drive.  It is currently being looked at by men with screwdrivers, so hopefully tomorrow I will hear the prognosis - all I can say folks is back up your files at any available opportunity;  the 3 weeks since my last confession back up was too long :(

Anyway, quickly on to happier things courtesy of the big Mac (hubby's computer).

You may have read Reene's account of my In The Purse swap lovelies, she is a cheeky one.

Imagine my delight to open my parcel to find this...



Oh yes I thought, very funny - I hope!

But my friend came good...



Don't you love it when you see something in the flickr pool and hope so much it will be coming your way, and it does?  I love it and my pretty scraps and the extras Reene so kindly popped in for the kiddies...


The purse I made is on it's way to its new abode, and I will show you some pictures of the parcel I sent if the photos can be restored!

Thank you again Reene, Helen and Nicky for a great swap; I will be able to store the 3p I have left in style, after getting my laptop fixed xxx

  1. Great swap item and extras.
    You always make me ROFL.
    At least your 3p will be well housed in that cute as a button purse.

  2. I hope they give you more than 3p in change!! At least you've got some nice brown fabric to blow your nose on now ;)

  4. I have a time capsule for the Mac and it auto backs up every time my laptop is in use. Well worth the $$ to alleviate the headaches of losing stuff.
    Nice purse too

  17. The purses are cute! (But then, I like brown. :-)

    Sincerest condolences on the hard drive. Mine calved a month and a half ago and couldn't be saved. Devastating. However, I was due for a graduation present so my old (5-years) macbook suddenly became a new one, so I'm healing... I wish you good news or a fat wallet for a new one.

  20. Are you regifting the brown one to Rhonda? Hope you sort the `puter out - still laptopless here :-(

  21. I love the brown one, especially the frame, send it my way. I was going to make you a larger brown pouch to put the pouch in for the pouch swap but Susan said it was not fair for you to get two pouches.
