Spent far too much money as usual but have decided i'm going for the weekend next year, the atmosphere was just Sooo friendly and everyone seemed to have had great fun. Got a nice photo of Joanna and Richard that i'll put on the forum soon (Joanna said i could). Richard wasn't too keen on posing but with three women badgering him he didn't stand a chance lol.Well i'm absolutely pooped so off for a cup of tea and look at the new c.d. i brought from Joanna, looks gorgeous, and that's just the cover!! The samples were stunning, looking forward to next week's show. Jay. xx

Had a fantastic time nad thanks to the support of my sheenie friends I only missed one workshop. Yes the atmosphere was friendly but we haven't had a minute to ourselves and didn't get to spend much time in the shooping halls. They worked us like Trojans but I'm sure everyone there would agree that we will go to bed with a smile on our faces. Apologies for not being able to get on the forum from the hotal but there just was not enough hours to do what we had to do. I'm sure in the fullness of time photos will start popping up on the forum to share with everyone. Hope you've all behaved yourself Hugs Marion W

It was lovely to meet up with everyone and I hope you all got home safely. Sleep well - I know I will, I'm shattered but happy. Night, night xx

It was great to meet you; I got home about 7.00. I managed to struggle back on the train with my case and the large wheelie craft trolley we were all given. It was a very busy and hectic weekend but great fun. I really enjoyed Joanna's speech on the Friday night and last night they had a Family Fortunes type quiz and I was picked for one of the teams and had to go up on stage. My knees were knocking. lol I took some photos and will put some on here when I can get some help; not too sure how to do it. It was lovely to meet other Sheenies face to face and lots of other people, and Eli and her husband popped in on Saturday evening to see us, as they were going to the Gardening Show today. Am really tired now and have work tomorrow so am off to bed soon. Anne

We got some petrol which was scaring us a little .... but whether we get home again or not - heck who knows - I may never leave Tunbridge wells lolol The weekend - well I have to say it seemed amazing value to me - the freebies were huge - there was £500 alone in prizes for the Saturday night quiz .... but I have to say publicly - my sheenies were stars - all of them - it made me feel a million dollars when I was scared before my speech and evening's entertaining on friday and they were wonderfully supportive all weekend long - bet no other crafters have friends as good as I have in all of you - whether you were at the weekend or not ... Nigel proved over and over what a lovely gentle person he is and Stephanie worked tirelessly - the Glitter Girls, Sara, Hina (for RedHotBed), Debbie (Crafter's Companion), Noreen (Flowersoft ..... ask Lavender) and Amanda Bateman all did lovely classes and gave many generous freebies best of all I stuck with my diet (yay!!!) and resisted alcohol and chocolate all weekend (which wasn't easy!) Lovely to meet everyone, so glad my evening was a success and have already told C and C that I am happy to be there next year .... but they are trying to ring the changes for next year without adding to the budget - even talk of it being a weekend cruise or something but no doubt details will come out soon .. I'll keep you all posted if I hear anything - but I saw dozens and dozens of very happy crafters all keen to come again - which must mean they got it pretty right! now I must get packing up the car and hit the road in a few hours - but we will have the laptop with us and stay in touch smiles Joanna

Glad you got home everyone, especially Joanna & Richard, who were worried about the petrol situation. Plenty of photo's were taken so I am sure they will appear very soon, I am only sitting at my computer as I am worried if I sit in a comfortable chair I will nod off.

Posts: 10266 (15/06/2008 23:30:50) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts Report Post	I'm back too ... couldn't face leaving, but eventually pulled out of the car park just before 8pm... talking of 'pulled'... there is an enormous story attached to that which will most certainly be revealed tomorrow... but all I can say for now is... Trout was on the menu... But what a fabulous weekend, wow... the workshops were brilliant (well, almost ... all I can say is FLOWERSOFT AAAAARGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH ), 7 lots of one and a half hours each, so loads of time to craft; along with a huge amount of freebies. The meals were lovely, and the evenings wonderful - Joanna's talk on Friday night was absolutely first rate and fabulous Saturday night was hiliarious with Crafty Fortunes, Oscarfelixjake and I got to the semis... but we was robbed! More than anything else thouh, the entire experience was extra special and unforgetable because of the people there, from the workshop leaders to the organisers, from Stephanie and dear Nigel to the camera crew... but most especially because of the most wonderful group of Sheenie friends who were there too. You are truly all very precious to me, I haven't laughed so much in years, or remember a time when I felt more at home with a group of friends. I am humbled and honoured to know you, and I mean that from my heart I'm totally worn out now, so will be off, but will fill you in on more of the antics when the others are here too... some things just have to come from the trouble makers themselves... Another worn out but estatically happy Sheenie Lavender XX

Sounds as if you all had a brilliant time. Yes, please can you put some names to faces for us. Joanna - are you going to the shop at Tunbridge Wells?? Pity you can't go via my bit of Kent. Anyhow, I hope you both have a safe trip and manage some sleep somewhere in all that busyness (is that a word??). Janet

Thank You all for making a great weekend even more special. Sheenies you will be pleased to know that we managed to stay off the naughty step and that we were so proud of our Sheenie Queen on Friday night. She showed what a super special lady she is and how professional as well. Well Done Joanna, I thought here was a loud clock ticking but then I realised it was your knees knocking. Ok Ok off I go to the naughty step ................................... Ho Hum! PS for once I'm not one of the trouble makers to whom Lavvie refers to in her post. I's a good girl I is!
