to a very happy Shell today, I don't care about aching, I don't care about housework, today nothing matters not even the rain....as yesterday I saw Newcastle United thrash Aston Villa 6 - 0 so I is one very, very, very happy bunnie...also my darling hubby is home tonight, he only went away yesterday afternoon, but I ain't half missed him. I need a cuddle off him lol also didn't sleep very well at all, as it was my first night without Nige in our new home, so I spent most of the night going 'what was that?' lol but its morning & I survived...

Firstly I just wanted to say a great big thank you to all of you that entered last week...there were some stunners out there & I really enjoyed looking at them all. Well this week we are asking for you to include some 'handmade flowers' on your creation.
