Feeling invisible .....wave at a mate!

Following on from Trish's good idea (and by request) this thread is the place to play 'bag a buddy' 'wave at a mate' or 'grab someone else's grip for a minute'

The original idea from the invisble thread was that it would be a brilliant idea if people had a friend they could pair up with ....just so someone is going to wave at you when you feel down.
It needed a thread.
This is it .....................

Hi Vlad

Doris is having a life outside MN Shock

Harold I let DD play on my phone and she's been taking photos .... I've loaded one for you which I thinks sums up nicely the grossness of toddlers and colds.

Not sure if picture worked ... Never done it before and looks up side down for some reason ..

Thanks HaroldLloyd.

I need some advise now,from my MN buddies. I have cut, to fit my window, a pair of nice, "Next" curtains I have been given. To get a nice straight seam down the cut edge,is there any thin,double sided sticky tape available that you know of ?? Trying to sew it by hand would take me hours & I know it would not be straight. I hope one of you are knowledgable on such matters. TIA.

VladTheProcrastinator · 23/10/2013 13:18

to UD and Grennie. I'm almost scared to ask but...who is goatpeter? Oh dear spellcheck just tried to change that to goat pest. Grin

UncomfortablyDumb · 23/10/2013 13:22

Goatpeter refers to a discussion last night about Heidi. All above board I think Wink

Not sure I follow Flatbelly but can you use Wonderweb stuff & iron it?

UncomfortablyDumb · 23/10/2013 13:23

Aww, that's cute Sauce

Waves at Boo

Gin? Why thank you.

Im home! Grin

Iron-on wonderweb is definitely the quick solution ....but it will make the edge a little stiff (which is fine if its a side seam on curtains)
Which ones do you have? ..... have just redone the GC nursery here, with the new "truck" design. Have never used Next before, and have been quite impressed.

UncomfortablyDumb · 23/10/2013 13:49

You're very welcome flatbelly it's dirt cheap too, can often pick it up in Poundland type places, although it's probably called some longwinded iron on sticky something or other.

TeaAndCakeOrDeath · 23/10/2013 13:51

Home now...I swear soft play is Gods punishment for having unprotected sex!

UncomfortablyDumb · 23/10/2013 13:51

Quick question - has this prompted any of the invisibles to post more on other threads today?

BOOsterseat · 23/10/2013 13:51

MN HQ really need to get a wiggle on with the Gin smiley.

It helps us bond

UncomfortablyDumb · 23/10/2013 13:52
