    we’re taking a leaf out of the teachers’ books and just meeting during term-time now Masterclock, plus Brocks Hill run events for the little humans during the holidays and we can’t do what we do in the hall. This is swings and roundabouts because we get a rest and can go on holidays but there were over 1000 morsbags waiting to be checked and counted by the team! Beattie’s figures should be back up for september! Hence the need for a curtain drive and a replacement for Skopos! We’ll see, you never know who you’re going to give a morsbag to!

    I was wondering if it was Mac Bags. I can send some bags unless someone else wants to.

    The advice I have been given about cones is the thread can vary just like on reels. Moon is an example. They make 2 cones, one is very good and one is very bad!

    I thought he was being a bit of a drama queen. I’m not sure anyone sews through their finger 3 times. Once is usually enough to teach people to keep their fingers out of the way. However we do try not to watch people to closely. I think it can make people nervous.

    I think Beattie did a great job as ambassador for morsbags and well done for getting in the logo on the t-shirt.I hope Tanya and Andy get lots of new customers!

    Well yes but I think people won’t pay on principle for something that used to be free so it doesn’t matter how much it is. It works in Lidl and Audi where I think they charge 5p.

    I think the problem is the exemptions, over 25% employees etc but still……….

    Thank you Beattie. Yes obviously avoid the very worn one’s. One of our morsbaggers doubles bedding bags which seems to help.

    Hi Gudrun, that is fantastic! Good news on all accounts I say! The photo thing is easy just cut and paste the address bar on to your post. I think the thing to look out for is make sure you choose the ‘anyone’ option when it asks who you want to see the photos. It’s fine to have a practice on here!
