Hi Guys

thanks for the welcome backs.

as for the house we moved back home in January, we got a 6 month extension which has now run out, we tried for more time but they gave us 30 days, which ends at the end of June, so they will have to knock it down with us in it. if worse case hands will will get a mobile home and put it on the land.
The most important thing is to stay healthy and happy and the dogs are so happy to be back together.
So for now we will go with the flow.

i hope you have all been busy buying and making bears and life is being good to you.

big hugs
will enjoy catching up

Hi to Everyone

i hope you all are happy and healthy and making lots of bears.

its been so long since i have had time to look through the site and try and catch up.
There are so many new people here now with great bears.

i have started a new buisness back in december and it has taken so much of my time but
its ticky nicely now.....so i have been busy making new bears and my first Ellie at last.

so hopefully catch up soon as i have missed being here a wonderful place full of lovely
caring supportive people.

hugs Susan xx

I have nearly made my little bear for my partner, i have so many things going on at the moment that i needed to start asap and each evening when i finish work, have walked the dogs and done dinner...... yes i have cracked on with it, as i was worried it would get put off to another day, you know how it is....... but i am so pleased with my little creation so far i hope my partner loves the end result. 

Big thankyou karon for all your hard work and giving your time for a swap to happen.
Big beary hugs and a job well done xx :clap:  :dance:  :hug:  :clap:

what a lovely story, here in portugal the circus still have elephants, lions etc etc when i am on my way home from work i go past the area they have set the circus up in.  my heart goes out to the animals as you can see them all standing there. This is one thing about this country i dislike the way they treat there animals.... thats why i have 5 dogs now.

i wish belonging to the EU the countries should all be banned from having animals in capitivity
but its always good to hear a happy story at least we are heading hopefully in the right direction
xx

oohhhh so excited my last swap was with Mo Beary and i received a real sweetie.
cant wait, well done Karon for doing all the work.

big hugs

when i order anything because its about 27% here i always order just under 18 euros for each package then i dont have to pay import tax. you pay extra p & p on each package but it still works out cheaper in the long run.
you have been luckly Karon, the first time i ordered sassy i didnt think and i paid $150 of fabric then 52 euros import tax  :twisted:

as you can imagine i had to be pick up off the floor in the post office  :crackup:

big hugs
Susan
