MIA.....

Afternoon all just a quick post to say sorry been missing again....

As some of you know my Grandad has been really ill and he sadly passed away on Saturday, so life has been a bit hectic around here.  I also have to have another health review for my PHI so I'm dreading that too...

I also have Dora coming over from Malta tomorrow to stay for the weekend and we are off to the NEC on Saturday too, yay!

So I do hope to be back in the swing of it next week, and catch up with visiting blogs, commenting and hopefully some creations.

Please drop me a line if anyone's going to the NEC on Saturday would be good to meet up...
