OK – New Year – New Shop! We’ve started our online store at long last – i’ll be slowly filling it up with stuff – if there is anything you have made that you would like to put in – then let me know… I think it’s going to be super great! By early next year we should have 100 items in there! So keep checking back!
I’ll be gradually filling in the International Postage Options – so if you are somewhere apart from Australia – then let me know and I’ll sort you out! Just send me an email!
And… I’m giving a $50 gift voucher to a lucky commenter on todays post – so email this on to your friends and family…. comment comment comment! For all of our reading entertainment – let’s make your comment a cheesy joke – like the kind you find in a Christmas Cracker! Away you go! The voucher will be valid for 6 months – and if there’s anything particular you would like to spend it on – we can be sure to put it up in the store! This will run for one week and is open to anyone.

Okay, so I’m going to tell a christmassy one, that I heard on Rollercoaster today… git ready.
“Why did the elf go to the doctor?
Because he had issues with his elf-esteem.”
Rats! Melanie has already used my standard “What’s brown and sticky” joke…
I’m super excited about the store! Here’s my 5 yr olds fave: What do you call a snail on a ship?…. A Snailor!
Congrats on the shop! Here is the Christmas joke I tell every year:
Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker are fighting with their light sabers.
Darth Vader: “Luke, I know what you’re getting for Christmas.”
Luke: “What? How?”
Darth: “I felt your presents.”

It looks beautiful Pip. I popped into your other new shop the last week. You have such a lovely style of arranging all things…simple, homely but very chic. Well done. I was sorry I missed you.
Yay at the online store Pip. Here’s a cheesy joke from my nearly 5 year old daughter Charlotte. “What time is it when an elephant sits on your fence. Time to get a new fence”. A Dr Suess favourite.
