As ever, I'm looking forward to Swinton, and will be very shortly sending off my deposit for a craft stall. Can I be cheeky and ask if there's any discount for craft stallers who are also mudcatters?

Dave - I read this in response to your pm - I had no idea it was so cheap!! Its now in my diary and I'll try and get a few people together to join me.

Cheers,

Catrin

Oh I dunno - good value rather than cheap perhaps ;-)

Well, we haven't even got the Atlantic between us to use as an excuse for misinterpretation. *BG*

BTW I've learnt that if I put *BG* people are much more likely to see the humour than if I just leave it straight. Makes up for the lack of body language, tone of voice etc.

I waffle.

P.S. and it was WEEKS before I even noticed the :-) smileys - I always thought they were typos.
