I did a similar deal with the chap who sold me our dining table. Feels so good but so flitchy when you think someone else might just pip you to the post.<br /><br />OMG. JK Rowdy?

Ha i was wondering about the cake...Yay you got it!! Ha i was wondering about the cake stand..a week last Thurs I was dusting the bits & bobs on my dresser (a rare occurance i'm afraid!), picked up one of my cake stands and remembered that it was the Thursday you were hoping to get yours for half price! I was hoping that you had! :) Ohhh it's a beauty as well it was well worth the wait. I actually have a cake stand the same as the one in the picture with the three of them, the one on the right, A lovely post to read as always and aaah the Princess is growing up isn't she, Mia is the same at the moment, she wanted to share a room with her little brother when we first moved in..but a month later the novelty has worn off and she's bagged her own room, well away from his, where she can put up her One Direction posters and admire Harry Styles' "cute face" (I must admit, at 8 years old she has very good taste! :) ) <br />Marina xxMarinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05566934780463518438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2564454623039772845.post-62036508939695811652013-02-02T00:07:37.322-08:002013-02-02T00:07:37.322-08:00Hello Gem, loving your blog!
Corr, what a lovely ...Hello Gem, loving your blog!<br /><br />Corr, what a lovely cake stand, well worth the wait and the price.<br />I do love a bargain, especially when it's clothing and you happen across an item that you simply MUST have, also helps if it's the right size, a rarity mind you, in my case anyway. <br />My daughter bags all the good stuff usually. I need to shove her latest finds on my next post, that'll bring my grand total to four posts! <br />I'm a bit green yet with this blogging lark but hopefully I'll get there before folk get bored and wander off mid read.<br />Try jogging on the spot between each cake...what?! It works for me, probably not with my waist measurement but certainly with my guilt :)<br />I'm off to put the kettle on and root through your old posts now.<br />Beckah XBeckahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04445374158424221103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2564454623039772845.post-73161322208892134462013-02-01T16:08:08.234-08:002013-02-01T16:08:08.234-08:00I am THRILLED that you finally got your cake stand...I am THRILLED that you finally got your cake stand, GEM! I am still waiting to find my crush somewhere in an antique/consignment shop, but if you watch Downton Abby, I am looking for the sort that Lady Edith's cake was carried away on!!!<br /><br />I so enjoy hearing about your finds. LUCKY YOU! Waiting sometimes for that special item is so worth it, especially when you know the price is too high that no one is going to pay it! <br /><br />I should have kept the one my mum had. It was three tiered and I swear I would send it to you if I had it. AND THE CUPCAKES MY DEAR....oh, enjoy them. You look fantastic and just go walking at the shore and you will be fine! I cannot keep the weight on due to all the walking my husband has me do with him at the enclosed mall!<br /><br />You make me laugh. I love your observations of the male gym teacher; I swear that if we were together, we would have a blast. I met up with two blogger pals two days ago in a coffee shop and I tell ya, we were LOUD!<br /><br />Enjoy all your goodies. The house must be so much fun (yes, work too) to put together. Hugs to you and HAPPY FEBRUARY! AnitaCastles Crowns and Cottageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01780241008313365707noreply@blogger.com
