Nice ideas for reusing the Christmas baubles to raise funds, I would focus on the baubles, I would have information left here as soon as I figured out.

Do believe everything would be OK, please be optimistic !!! :)

Hi, Lizzie!

Ooops, I've responded to you twice! (g) Okay, I know where you live. Yes, my cousin lives in Sprouse, in Norwich, Norfolk. My other cousin lives in Bolton, Manchester. Norfolk, England is quite beautiful. There's actually lots of similarities between Norfolk, England and Norfolk, VA, interestingly. I can say with authority now, as I've been to both!

I do have Skype! I love that it's free so I can talk to Ginger and Suze on a regular basis. We miss each other, and Skype is the perfect solution.

Oh, Zoe and Mac have been fixed, too. They don't seem to care one jot! (g) They're upstairs now, having their afternoon nap with Dad in the main house. I live downstairs in the flat.

Caught the series premiere of Downton Abbey last night. Gave me lots of ideas for jewellery. Do you watch it? I confess it's quite the guilty pleasure!

Hullo, Lizzie!

I'm Val and I live in upstate NY. I have a cousin who lives in Bolton, Manchester, and another who lives in Norwich, Norfolk. I'm not married but I've got TWO wonderful Westies, Zoe and her younger brother, Mac. They are cuddled up in bed with me right now! I love them more than anything (except God, of course) and I delight in spoiling them rotten! I am also disabled from being hit by a car seven years ago, and I got into beading a few years ago myself.

A warm welcome to our BD forum. We are very international here and just one big, happy family. If you're looking for free patterns, Beading Daily's got lots; just click the "Free Resources" tab at the top of the screen. Btw, I was in Manchester a couple three summers ago visiting, and also trundled down to Norfolk. The North country is so very beautiful. The weather is very much like it is here, so I was quite comfortable. I really didn't miss going to London at all. A very large city like that is actually very dangerous for someone with my injuries. If I were to fall and get hurt there, I could become permanently paralysed. I was much happier being able to see the countryside. I'm not particularly fond of doing the "touristy" things. I want to be able to experience the culture. The Northerners are wonderfully friendly, and they didn't want me to leave! I think they liked my accent, because whilst I'm currently living in NY, I was born and grew up in Virginia, so I have a Southern accent that actually sounds rather similar to an English accent! Oh, and I was introduced to Lush whilst there and now am completely addicted! I love their "Honey, I Washed the Kids" soap. It's brilliant! It smells like a gourmet food store when you walk in! I actually almost ate something! (lol)

Well, any road, hope that info helps, and welcome to the group!

hello
