MRS F......I am sorry

[undercovermum]

I went into the works today(didn't ave em) and the sales assistant (age 10) didn't know when they were coming in.

So calling all crafters. If you are near the works please please get MrsF some box chain in silver/gold.

Regards

more to learn... what's the 'works'? Ta x x

[undercovermum]

it's a bookshop which sells a bit of crafting stuff.

[MrsForgetMeNotFul]

did you get my chq and voucher etc.... i know you couldn't get the 'stringy stuff'....just looking forward to what you suprise me with!

[CountessCadburyOfBournville]

will be going near the works on monday. describe this stuff to me - non crafter here.

[MrsForgetMeNotFul]

oooooh!

It's hard to describe.... was given some to add to a card i was making.
It's gold/silver...looks very much like a chain you'd wear round your neck....seems to be made odf the metalic foil that some xmas decorations are made of....and it stretches...so when on the card it looks like a tiny 'box' chain...but can be stretched miles!
I spose the easiest description is that it is almost like a 'square spring'....

[CountessCadburyOfBournville]

will have a look for it and let you know if I managed it. Is it one pack you are after or more?

[MrsForgetMeNotFul]

i'd love a couple of packs...gold and silver...but if only 1 colour...i'd be just as happy with 2 packs of that colour!!!

Do you use paypal...i could payyou straight away via that...or send you a cheque.....or make you some cards...to repay you for this kindness!

[CountessCadburyOfBournville]

I'll have a look in town tomorrow and see if I can find it.

[CountessCadburyOfBournville]

Hi Mrs F, bad news I'm afraid. They didn't have any in the shop, and, because of the nature of the shop (publishers outlet), they have no idea if they will have any more in sorry.

I'll keep my eyes peeled for them in the next few weeks and let yuou know if I can get some.

[undercoverwitch]

Sorry I have been away for weekend. Yes I got your stuff. Will do something with it on Thursday. I will send you some of my 'square box' as I don't think I will use all of it. Also will surprise you nicely I hope.

[MrsForgetMeNotFul]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOh! I am Sooooooooooooo excited!!!

thanks UCM...and hausfrau......i'll let you know!!!

[undercoverwitch]

Well Mrs F. I truly believe I have done you proud. I bought stuff that I have not even bought before and some for myself of course. I went for stuff that was good value and if I say so myself, you will cream your pants girl. Sorry to be coarse in late afternoon, but you will be happy

[undercoverwitch]

Oh and I went to shops that I don't think you use. Not hobbycraft.

[MrsFrostgetful]

OOOOOOOH! OOOOOOOOOH! Ohhhhhhhh!

(creaming away!!!! )!!!!!!

[UCM]

Well have you got it??????????

[UCM]

Oh for goodness sake, am waiting patiently, Mrs F.

[MrsFrostgetful]

YES! Yes! YES!

I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo pleased!!!!

Wow! What a pack of goodies!

And.....you put in YOUR OWN SUPPLY of 'springy stuff'....didn't you!!!! You are TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO kind!!!!!

You paid heaps for postage too....1st class aswell..... THANKS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!

The pack of paper had me quiet for 20 mins ...sorting it into various types...colours and sizes...and couldn't resist counting how many pieces there were...somewhere between 200 and 220 piececs....i got a bit muddled in the excitement!!!!

So...thanks so much.

L & L & LOL!!!
