THE SMALL PERSON'S LOVELY NECKLACES

THE BROOCH AND HAIR BOW UP FOR GRABS IN THE GIVE AWAY.

ALL MY PICTURES ARE AT THE TOP OF THE POST IN COMPLETELY THE WRONG ORDER BECAUSE OF THE COMPUTER ISSUES BELOW. gRRRRR...aRG!!!!!!!!!!

So, this is actually my second attempt at a 102nd post. I had it all written up with a "hurray me and my 102nd post" theme and even my first ever give away all set to go. That was before a gremlin moved into our home :(

Poor Mr Bogert has had no luck what-so-ever the alst few days. My printer wouldnt work with his laptop, then his printer coughed, spluttered and died completey, then our hard drive on the PC packed up, he attempted to fix it and the internet connection went down, so he couldn't even use his laptop to access the internet. Dr Bogert will be attending to the ailing modem tomorrow whilst we hold a small service in memory of the poor dead hard drive. No, we can't salvage the information, but luckily the most important things and my photos (god forbid I ever lose those!) are on my external hard drive which is feeling fine. Guess what I'm going to be backing up when the PC's feeling better?

So, that messed up my plan and Mr Bogert's weekend. Very annoying. I'm sitting at my Mum's using her wireless internet because she also has computer issues which Mr Bogert is trying to help with.

Back to yay me and the 102nd post.

I can't believe I've made over 100 posts and you're still here with me! (You are, right? Hello....?) As is normally required at such events, I will be having a small give away. My first ever! Woo hoo!

To enter all you need to do is leave a comment at the bottom of this post about something you made that you're really proud of, or something that has been made for you that you really treasure and why. Lurkers can de-lurk (as there is absolutely nothing wrong with that, and I admit to being a happy lurker on several blogs!) I will post internationally and you don't need to have a blog to enter, but if you do and you post a link to this give away on your blog I will give you a second entry (don't forget to leave a link to your blog in your comment if you do!). Winner will be chosen at random on Wednesday 20th January.

And what's up for grabs? One of my new heart brooches (that were going to be in my Folksy shop this weekend, but will have to wait until everything is back up and running) and a mohair re d crochet hair bow (fixed to a barette clip). There will also be a surprise extra. It will be a surprise because I can't make up my mind which to give! :D

So there you go. Good luck!

In other news, the small person had a lovely treat this morning. She had a surprise package come through the post. Not only was she SOOOOOOOO excited to have post, but she loved the contents too. The lovely Mrs Woo sent her a Wizard of Oz DVD. Now, anyone who knows Mrs Woo will know she adores the Wizard of Oz, and so does the small person. She (small person) watched it twice this morning already, and has put in an order for a Dorothy costume for the May Fair fancy dress. She was most concerned that I don't forget the ruby slippers. So thank you very very much Mrs Woo, you really are lovely :)

Crafty wise, apart from my valentines heart brooches I've been helping the small person make necklaces. Her's some piccies of her wonderfully bright creations. (at the top of this post)
