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

Yes it's Christmas lunch but we have all chosen off the main menu! lol I am having duck. Decided against venison.

Good

Twishy should have been away with me. Six days crossing the Atlantic so I chose to do a chocolate making course, absolutely brilliant. Teacher owns the Chocolate Boutique Hotel in Bournemouth.

Gina, I agree,  Twishy would have loved that.  

I met my dad at lunchtime for a drink.  He came back from Malta on Monday and I actually got another £20 off him.  My dad had already given me money for my birthday and Christmas so the extra money was a bonus. 

Must admit, I am not a fan of venison.  I think that it has a very rich taste.  To me, the best time to have a Christmas lunch is on Christmas day.  Admits to having a Christmas lunch on my birthday when my mum took me out to lunch.

Holds plate out for one of CB's mince pies.  I mean, I only want one and I will leave you some to take into hospital with you.  

[chickengrandma-2008]

I made a dozen yesterday.  I don't like making them as they're soooo fiddly!  I opened a big jar, made the dozen and put all the rest in a big pie!!  I don't like eating them either YUK!!

Besides, my filling usually boils over the top because I put too much in!

[petitecalicocat]

I have really good news to share with you all   ..............i am going to be a Grandma in June    . whey hey !

[ilove2patch]

Congratulations Granny Von.

[petitecalicocat]

Thanks i think im more excited than they are lol     They had a scan yesterday & showed me a pic ., she is 14 weeks ,  which means she was pregnant when they had the car crash !

[chickengrandma-2008]

Ohhh!  Congratulations Von!!!  XXXXXXX              

[ed_blackadder_1]

Congrats PCC,    you will love it, not that I have any yet but my best friend absolutely adores hers.

[merc1_clocks]

 Do we know what flavour it is yet

[bitsnknots]

Congratulations Von.  Merc, I think it might be pink flavoured.  Our little lady will be 3 just after Christmas.  I don't know where that three years has gone.  She's getting a bike off Father Christmas and a trampoline for her birthday.  

Not been back from the hospital long.  Had to take my mum to the heart valve clinic.  Mum's heart hasn't improved but then again, it hasn't got any worse which is good.  They've looked at what medication mum's on and they've decided that they'll leave it as it is.

I've got to go to the hospital on 27th about my skin cancer.  I have to go to see my GP on 30th about a problem with the ankle I haven't got.  I managed to get bitten where the bone graft is when it was Steph's wedding.  Saw the doc last week and he gave me antibiotics which haven't worked so I have to see him again.  Honestly, I should have been shot years ago.

[twishy123]

Congratulations PCC....will you be a Granny,Grandma or a Nanna?....

               

[petitecalicocat]

Thanks ,  GF already has a 41/2 yr old  girl  from a previous relationship.

 I would like it to be a pink one cos i didnt get that flavour but to be honest im just so happy to have a grandchild .  

Grandma sounds old  Twishy but then i am 61 LOL
