yay! :cheers:
I understand - I sold some handspun wool recently and it really lifted me. obviously selling is nice, but she wrote lovely stuff about how great it is and she wants to come back and buy more etc. it sort of endorsed it... proved it was ok, if you know what I mean - this was not my mum - who will say its all great.. but a stranger.. willing to part money for it :shock:

Just looked at your pictures and they are great :)

Yay! Well done you :thumbright: - I am not suprised, just had a squiz at your pics on Flickr, they are fantastic, particularly the one with the steps.

What a nice feeling that must be! :iconbiggrin:

Ain't it lovely when you do something & an 'outsider' not only approves, but is complimentary?

On my honesty stall, I've discovered that one of my customers is the local Westdoc Doctor man - he says he's had 3 lots of eggs now & that they are just wonderful! I even blushed a bit :lol: :oops:

Congrats on your sale - the first of many, I suspect :hugish:
