I just wanted to say Wow was a wonderful group of caring, generous and talented people you are.  I'm so glad that I've found you!  I stumbled upon this group just the other day and I  very much enjoyed reading your chat.  I have been struck by how generous you all are in sharing your wealth of knowledge and skill with each other.  It is very refreshing.  I very much hope and look forward to being able to share my tricks and tips with you in the near future!  Keep up the good work you guys and be proud!  With warmest beary wishes.:D

We're so glad you've joined in on the fun and look forward to your contributions. We are forever asking, learning, and sharing here.

I've just visited your bears and have to tell you they are absolutely adorable! Your noses are fantastic. Their overall look is quite irresistible!! They look very 'finished' with attention to every little detail. They are just wonderful, Mandy!

Hi Shari and Mandy.  Look out!...this boaerd is addicting ...so are these wonderful ladies.

I myself am trying to spend less time on my computer and more time working and getting other things done around here.  BUT , I still like to check here at least once a day.

DILU...you are the POST QUEEN today!!!  YAY!

Mandy, what part of England are you from?  My heart is always there as I was born in England and all my relatives are there.

Welcome aboard!

Mandy Jun 28, 2005

Hi Judi.  Your heart is in England and mine is in America.  My wonderful sister lives in Florida and I feel as if part of me is there too. I long to visit - haven't made it yet but I'm hoping (and saving) to visit next April.  I live in Essex.  Not much you can say about it but it's home!  Thanks for your kind words of welcome.  Hugs Mandy
