That's brilliant new Helen.  :thanks:


I wonder if a separate thread announcing it might be a good idea.  I've been reviewing my potentially auctionable items this week and now the  buyer no longer pays postage  I came to the conclusion that more money would be raised if I just donated what it would have cost me to post the smaller value ones without actually bothering to put them up for grabs. This news changes things.  ;D
It also means I can make use of the boxes I've been collecting.  :shify:

Good news from Royal Mail for once! They've increased the size limits of the 'small parcel' band meaning that it's now possible to send things that are about shoebox size and weigh less than 1kg for £2.60 whereas beforehand it was £6ish!

Royal Mail have said they will go on strike before Christmas - hope it doesn't mess things up.

I do hope these aren't similar to mugs I was shown at the weekend. Strategic use of the handle looked like a C then the "rest" of a word was written on the mug.  :Crazy:

Why would you want the word "Crest" on a mug?  :shy: :innocent: :rofl: :rofl:

Same end letter Sheila but only four in total.  :rofl:

"Unrest" then?  :innocent: :rofl: :rofl:

I have two mugs to go in, actually one's more a cup than a mug, but mustn't let the cat out of the bag  :)
