Just needed to get a simple card on here today... still got lots of stress going on with the kitchen, finally got my hob and sink connected last night, but ended up with a leak about 9.30 pm - then again this morning. We've got a really good plumber who was with us within 3 mins of us calling last night... he only lives around the corner and came on his bike with his grips in hand!! He also came out again this morning, but as there is so much pipework in one cupboard, it's proving difficult to find the leak. We have the tiler coming on Monday... and the flooring Thursday... and I'm really getting cheesed off... I'm losing sight of the lovely kitchen it's going to be........ Sorry, having a bit of a pity party this morning.... Barry's at work, hence needing to make a card!
Whatever you're doing, I do hope you have a lovely bank holiday weekend..
Big Hugs

It's gorg Christine. I love the handwriting on it. It looks really good (much neater than mine) The stamp is really effective and the soft pink and blue is lovely. A great clean and simple card.
ReplyDeleteHope the kitchen gets sorted soon, there is nothing worse than having a kitchen out of order, nor being plagued with leaks. Hope you get it fixed soon. ps - your plumber sounds great!!! What great service. Fab.
