Fancy wining a £1000 to spend on a new sofa and help out a textile student at the same time? No catch (nor a sponsored link) just a post on Sofa.com's new competition that celebrates new fabrics designed by our talented student designers findthedetails.com/2013/01/23/emerging-textile-designers-sofa-com/

Good news for Wolf Hall, Bring up the Bodies and David Tennant fans in the latest RSC announcement.

My first post as a mumsnet blogger! Am ridic excited. Feel like I'm included in the in crowd at school - though not the smoky, sexting group behind the bike sheds. More like the Lacrosse team in American movies - healthy, fitter than I am and slightly bossy. The blog is about hardcore nursery pick up times blunderbussme.wordpress.com/2013/01/19/pain-trains-and-automobiles/

The ridiculous conversations other people have on trains - performance mobiling and Squarish Wraps

Lovely blogs everyone.

*IT was horrible. I wasn't. It was an accident.

I stop fighting it, and admit I'm a massive control freak.

My handbag thanks me for it

Ooooh, at all the crafty posts!

Here's my second post for this week: How to tie dye tissue paper Sounds weird, but it's fun if you have kids!
