[ilove2patch]

As requested, a place for us to ask for help and advice from other stitchers and to show the things we make.
Over to you.:-D

[****merlin*****]

my lappy has to go back:-(

they comin saturday with a new one and taking this away, ugh, the touchpad isnt right

**eyes up hippy**
naughty/nice/naughty/nice???

hmmmmmmm:^O

Obviously you want the touch pad to work ok, but do you actually use it?  I hate using it, always use a mouse.  When I go to my daughter's to babysit, her hubby knows to have his lappy all set up ready for me.  At first he didn't have a mouse, so I used to take my own with me!:-D

[****merlin*****]

i always use it
i have a mouse, but have never used it
the pad is so convenient
i recalibrated it, but its having none of it:-(

[*hippyfairy*]

My youngest has a lappy and I had the touchpad - he always plugs a mouse in for me if I have to use it.

Definately a nice but naughty person 😉

[****merlin*****]

ooooooooooh could i have a wee proud mummy moment please?:-D

just had a text
(from the toilets of the BBC:^O)

kirsty, she was at an interview/trial
and she has gotten the job as a runner for the newsteam
she is so excited

she already does 2 radio broadcasts a week and writes for a music magazine as well as uni
busy girl!

[ilove2patch]

Well done Kirsty. We will always be able to say we know her mum when she is famous! 😄

[chickengrandma-2008]

Very good merlin, they were probably surprised to see a youngster with enthusiasm.  What does the job entail?  (apart from running)?:|

[chickengrandma-2008]

Just seen your slogan at the bottom Maggie.  I've only one thing to say about that. 'You speak for yourself. For some of us it is!'  ;\

[****merlin*****]

anything and everything really

making cups of tea, seeing to guests
out on location she would get props
research, anything at all really

a few famous people started off as runners, Michael McIntyre did

she has an impressive CV for her age
she has worked hard and is very dedicated to her career
she volunteered at a newspaper since she was 14, and has done community radio and hospital radio
now she can produce shows, as they trained her and sent her on lots of courses

she does outside broadcasts as well, things like the switching on of the christmas lights etc

the music magazine means she gets tickets to loads of things as well, so she really does keep herself busy

[ilove2patch]

Didn't Jonathan Ross start as a runner?

[****merlin*****]

oh i dont know, he could have done Maggie

i have made her sound very professional
ermmmmmmmm i love her to bits
but, Bridget Jones was written about Kirsty!:^O

[chickengrandma-2008]

Will she do all this as well as uni?

[chickengrandma-2008]

Never read or seen Brigit Jones, so I don't know what you mean.  It's something about big knickers isn't it?:|

[cat-knitter]

so you may as well be  :^O:-p

[**towery**]

Well done Kirsty 🙂
