Hello !

I thought I had better come and introduce myself for those who dont already know me, I have seen a few familiar faces around :~: but for anyone who doesnt know Im Becky.

I am a glass-a-holic and also make some jewellery and have recently started to dabble with metal clay.

Mwah, thanks George, will do

Hey Jo, a most impressive use of smilies it is too (and what a fab range of smilies there are ! that alone could keep me amused for hours !!) :dance:

Thanks Bridget, Su and Maggie for saying Hi too !

Maggie, I found forums really difficult to get my head round when I first came across them but now I am a member of a few and they do get easier

George, what did you go and do that for? You know my financial situation - and I might just have to make it even worse for beads such as these #-o

Lampworking :D

Sally Carver's dvd arrived today (haven't had a chance to watch it yet - I will co-opt the tv tomorrow) and I've been lurking on FHF. I'm hoping to get a lesson arranged before Christmas and am starting to price up a hothead + bulk propane system and all the necessary safety gubbins. I'm going to post over there once I've got a full list to make sure I haven't forgotten anything!

Woop woop! It's all very exciting :D

Thanks Alexandra :)

Dont you like Kingston Coco ?

Coco
14-10-2009, 05:50 PM
I alternate between liking and disliking it. There are definitely parts I like more than others. And can't say I'm too crazy about distinctly unhelpful M&S staff I encountered today :(|

Gotta admit, Borders is a plus. And walking past the rose theatre always gives me a giggle.....it's so pleased with itself :rolleyes:
