Hi Linda

I do so hope you enjoy yourself at Ally Pally.

Sorry I won't be there to meet up but I found my way across to SirStampalot (who are one of the exhibitors as Ally Pally) here in Peterborough and found what I was looking for (nesties) so spent the travel money (£25+) and a bit more. Great big Grrrr to mapmakers who don't put footpaths on their maps on line. It was only when looking on Google satellite image that I spotted the footpath that made it easy to get there although I had to travel round the houses on the bus to get that far... but didn't cost me anything. I have a weekly bus ticket (called a megarider) to get round to work and its valid on all the stagecoach buses round town all week, so I was able to use that. Added to that I have just ordered some other bits from Joanna to use her competition discount. Plus, in the last month joining Graphicus Guild and an order from Graphicus, a small order from Joanna, a visit to a discount craft warehouse locally and a visit to Coleman's in town. I've promised myself the cosmic shimmer mists when Joanna gets the restock in.

Anyway, enjoy yourself, and maybe I will get down there for a meet up sometime in the future.

Steph
