They look amazing! :) Well done :)
I could just eat one right now :cool:
If you were in London and going to watch TDKR at the O2 on Wednesday, I could've brought a couple for you (in return for balcony seats ofcourse ) ;)

Do I go for a feature wall or not? :confused: I've got almost a week off in 4 weeks time and thinking of refreshing my living room, also looking for the perfect oak coffee table (sorry akh43 and steve for dragging you both around on my mission to find it the other week) and new cushions etc - now on line in my search. I need to do a mood board that arty people do :roll:
Feature walls are nice, we have one in our dining room and one in daughters room and they are the focal point as soon as you walk into the room. If you don't go for that, can I suggest (subtle) wallpaper on the ceiling? We have that in our lounge and everyone that has visited since we got the room done have thought its a great idea!
Ooh that's a different idea. I have bamboo (I don't know the real colour) coloured walls and a very pale gold silk curtains (I get them tomorrow - my fab friend has made them), so don't know how to bring it all together. I will continue faffing with my books and now a new idea. Thank you so much for your ideas and what a shame I can't have one of your delicious cakes on Wednesday :crying:

@anakin - you collect all your old clothes, you put them in a bag. they weigh them and give you cash -Simple.
but dont imagine you'll get a fortune, and dont bother putting designer clothes in. I got £10 for 2 big bin bags
