Sounds lovely Sazzie 😀 Don’t forget to bag all the other stallholders, you get some lovely and delicious free samples in return and they’ll often direct customers who need a bag to you instead of handing out plastic bags, so you score a double win!!

Ah, I see. How many houses are there in Coombe Thingummyjig?

On my laptop pc, “Alt + V” is a shortcut to “View”
Googling suggested that “alt + 251” would produce it, but I got nothing. Oh well…. 😕

Now I think I get it – are you counting down, not counting up? Does that mean you’re letterboxing 2 bags a day? Way to go, Offcuts! 😀 I don’t think I’ve got a tick (or square root sign) available in my character set. 🙁

[beattie]

Wow! It’ll take some person-power / time to shift that lot!! We have about 100 or so to give out.

HAPPY NEW YEAR MORSBAGGERS! 😀

(And Happy Anniversary to Pol & Joe 😉 )

Are we all gearing up for the handout in just over 3 weeks time?

[beattie]

Wow!! I didn’t think all the answers would arrive, uncut, as I blethered on somewhat…

Thanks Offcuts and Sazzie for your kind comments 😳 😀

What ‘discussions’ were those, Offcuts? I can’t remember any ‘kindlegate’, hangmangate’ or ‘stainlesssteelgate’ or whatever they were… 😕 Never mind, don’t remind me, selective memory loss is SOOO useful!! 😉

We’re looking forward to joining in with some of your events in 2014 – they’re so much fun!! (Wish we could still do coloured text!) 😀

[beattie]

What a great idea to post that Sazzie!
I’d like to wish you and the others reading this the same.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS everybody!

[beattie]

Thanks! The curtain has been sitting in the fabric cupboard for ages! It’s a bit thick and garish for ordinary bags, but came into its own this Christmas 😀

[beattie]

That was nice of them! 🙂

[beattie]

Krisaby’s correct, Freddie IS “a very noble cat of unusual dignity” 😀
I like the way you’ve “dressed” the scene with a pair of striking odd crocs! 😀 Very “Offcuts”!

Congratulations to “Team Leicester” (the conglomeration of pods throughout the county) and to Avantek Computers on a deal that I hope will benefit both sides.

[beattie]

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Offcuts. I have emailed DEFRA, as suggested. I note that, according to the MCS website, the closing date for emailing your opinions/ thoughts is tomorrow, so please could anyone reading this get on with your response. DO IT NOW!!

[beattie]

Oh, wow!! Golly!! I’m amazed!! Sazzie’s first bag was so fantastically good I couldn’t come up with anything even approaching it for ages and ages!! I’ve just reviewed all the entries, and as Pol said there are going to be some fabulous pressy-wrapping bags being given away 😀

Thank you very much to Pol for having the Christmas morsbag competition idea, and to Zoe for judging it – I knew it would be a very difficult decision to make.

Congratulations to everyone for making such gorgeous bags 😀 Whooppeeeee!!!!

[beattie]

There are some great ideas there, thanks for posting the link Krisaby! 😀 I think I have some organza too….

[beattie]

Glad it worked and you’re back to being “Krisaby”, Krisaby 😀

I meant to comment earlier – on ALL the bags – I almost didn’t enter the competition as the standard was so high, but had a go anyway! 😀 Spiffing bags, everyone! I love them all, so glad I’m not judging this.

Closing time and date is 9 am tomorrow morning, so if there are any more entries lurking out there, you need to get a wiggle on and post a photo, PDQ!

[beattie]

I thought there might be another side of the table to show us!! Lovely cakes and crockery, Waley – well done!! 😀
