That's definitely going to keep the posties busy!! 😮

I had too because putting most of them together would have possibly let to being over the vat.

yeah that stupid exchange rate really isn't helping (at least they haven't lowered the value for the vat!). Hopefully it won't cost a fortune to post!

-nods- especially with the vat so low in the first place and counting shipping. Heck I think I used sale prices in most cases to make sure it stayed under

nods they don't like to make it easy! I had to keep the values under 20 quid on what I'm sending out, simply because if it's over, I have to pay more to send it (how on earth can you accurately price something you made anyway?!)

no, no they don't :/ yeah guess in favour of making sure you don't get charged more.

They then insure it up to £50.... but an option for £25 or £30 value would be a lot more sense! :P

doesn't quite make sense lol.

any excuse for them to not pay much if they lose the package ;)

lol

I saw your HA and thought it was me XD

you look amazing doll!

hiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!

:P

painted 8 cupboard doors, 2 drawers and a little shelf that was for me. That took 2 hours. But the drawers, and 4 of those doors are now finished. So that leaves one coat left on the first side of the 4 remaining doors--plus 3 coats on the second side. Then 4 more doors and all the doors are finished. Which just leaves the door frames and the one final cupboard since the parents decided to buy a new back door instead of painting this one.

lol nice xD Thanks :) He's happy to be looking so scary-pretty

xD Same. xD Wordplay is awesomesauce.

Hehe, That is not a bad plan at all for mittens. xD Typing on a tablet will drive me batty.. hence why will mostly use my computer or phone for everything. xD

That is early! I havent gotten around to sort out pressies for you gals yet. But I will in time, promise. :) And I am gonna be a good girl this year, and wait to open it up. 👼

Hey ! :D

Whoa that's fantastic progress!! :D Sounds like quite a bit to do, but that's definitely going to be amazing when it's finished :D I decided it was time I did a bit more sewing seeing as Dad was out (so he wasn't wanting to watch the tv :P) - made two pairs of fleece fingerless mitts, two fleece hats (one with a self-drafted peak), and finished off the hood on that hoodie that I'd had to unpick ;)

I did manage to sew some fingerless mitts that almost match as a pair - I get on better with sewing them than knitting, as sewing is so much quicker ;) hehe well, I needed to get Raven's package posted, and as you both have the same kind of present, it made sense to get yours ready to post too ;) They both went to the post office today, so yours should arrive within 7 days I think :D

I like how I got pinged twice lol xD what's shakin bacon?

yeah I'm so sick of it lol oh sounds like you've been busy. Which also explains the RP sewing Paddy lol it looks like a really long quilt xD so cute

I'm not surprised! ;) I also made an apron for Dad, as he's started helping Mum in the kitchen and I thought he should look the part :P Thanks :D I wasn't sure if the tent would work in the background, but hopefully it just looks like a giant piece of fabric ;)

aww cute xD that's what it looked like to me xD so I'll say you were successful

;)

:D thanks :D tries to figure out a suitable outfit for today's HA

I am never gonna get my pings straight. lol

Painstakingly counting row helps.. but that is boring as heck. lol I still think I would not get on too well with sewing.. lack of patience and all. :P thank you! Looking forward to opening it up christmas eve. :D :hugs:
