OMG

Some of our regulars know that it has become a bit of an in joke that one of the ways Ian know how much I am spending is by the number of hooks left in the basket at the end of the day.  Not to be thwarted, fairly early on I sussed this and acquired some extra secret hooks (come on girls I am a crafter after all!) plus we had a basket of hooks we didn’t think worked with our display board. 

So gearing up for next weekend we had used the secrete stash, worked out that we could use the others if we were selective about where we tried them but still ran out of hooks.  So we spoke to the supplier and agreed a hush, hush deal for more hooks only to find the only person who could actually go and pick them up was Ian!  All that secret work and today I had to fess up anyway.  The poor supplier today tried so hard not to drop us in it when Ian phone to arrange collection.  So Avril if you’re reading this nice try girl!

As for everyone else anybody know how sky hooks work coz we’ve run out of wall space now…..

See ya
