This is the 1,000th post on this blog and to celebrate I'm doing a little give-away. Just things that fit in a small envelope and will bring a small smile when they plop through the letterbox.
I learned my lesson about give-aways on the old blog when I had a big pile of books to giveaway on my 500th post which went to someone who never commented again not even to say they had received them. So this time it's just little bits and bobs......... 4 different themes so just pick which one you could make use of.
1.A few card blanks, envelopes and toppers for birthday cards
2. A cross stitch kit and some DMC Threads
3. Two little books
4. Some seeds
Leave a comment with your name and which item you would like and I'll do the name-in-a-hat (plastic tub) thing on Sunday. Sorry UK ONLY - I can't do overseas it's just too expensive nowadays.
Back Tomorrow
Sue
Congratulations on 1000 posts! Don't comment often, but always read you. I think the cross stitch would be good to keep my hands busy. Thanks for the chance to win. Stay safe. xx
ReplyDeleteLove your blog and the two wartime books would be a wonderful addition my collection of household books Fiona x
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on 1,000 posts too. What a lovely idea. Seeds would be very useful at the moment.
ReplyDeleteA lovely idea. I'd love the little kit and thread, should I be so lucky!

Congratulations! I would love to read those wartime cook books please. I haven't done a giveaway for years the last one was a silk scarf that took me a lot of work and time and the recipient didn't acknowledge it, I had to ask her if it had arrived safely and it appeared she did not want it or value it at all... I know that feeling :) I organised a few swaps too - they were fun.
ReplyDeleteI don't comment, but I do read you every day. I'd love the seeds and will use them or pass them on to someone else, so they don't go to waste.

ReplyDeleteCongratulations and happy Bloggingversary to you on your 1000ed post!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 1000th post and thank you for posting every day I love your blog, being a widow myself I can relate to you, who knew I could gloss paint doors. I would love the two wartime books, it was never a good car boot sale if I didn't get a recipe book
ReplyDeleteBut come what may it can't be easy writing a blog every day so thank you x
Well done on your 1000th ! Best wishes for the next 1K. I'd love the Hollyhocks kit - but until I can get my eyes tested again and some new reading/sewing glasses it would have to be on hold. Lesley

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 1000th post
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on post 1000! I'm afraid I'm one of those that read, but don't comment, but I would love to be in the draw for the cross stitch - something that I did years ago, and have been wanting to try again.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog. Don't enter me into your competition, just to say, I have the Wartime Recipe book, brings back memories of my eldest granddaughter Yasmin, who cooked several dishes when she was doing a project on WW2 at primary school.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the 1000th post, I would love to be entered for the seeds. Thank you very much.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue, don't enter me for the draw, I would be a waste of time, but I enjoy reading your blog, a daily visit to my friend. I can't wait for lockdown to be over and we can meet for coffee again. It all seems a long way off at the moment. I don't know how many posts I have done, seems like it could be millions but I expect it isnt!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on reaching 1000 posts, it's a brilliant achievement. I've done numerous giveaways in the past and all bar one have let me know things have arrived and thanked me either in my comments or via email ... it's just rude not to isn't it.
ReplyDeleteI would love you to enter me into the cross-stich draw ... I've not done any cross-stitch since I made my Mum a little needle-case at primary school, so it would be a challenge, but one I would love to have a go at. (I'll even show the finished article for you to have a laugh at ;-) )
Congratulations, wow 1000 posts and I've read them all, and the old blog too!! I don't comment very often because, usually, by the time I read your blog (time difference) there are many comments already and they have said what I wanted to say many times!! Love reading everyday though. Good luck to everyone for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI would love the books. Congratulations on your 1000th post!

ReplyDeleteIt's a miracle that I am alive today. I encountered HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS (HSV1/2) for four (4) years, before I met the great Dr.Vadi I am Leslie Jordan from Fresno California, united state of America and I was affected with herpes virus. Herpes is a viral infection caused by the Herpes simplex virus, marked by painful, watery blisters in the skin or mucous membrane or on the genitals. This was what I suffered for four years. I have visited CVS Pharmacy in Fresno for treatment but no improvement. I meet Dr. Vadi online while I was searching for a herpes cure I read a testimony about his work. I give a try that now becomes a testimony in my life and is now fully cured. kindly contacted Dr Vadi via WhatsApp +2348074133083 or email him on doctorvadi@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteAnd here is my email address in case you wanna know more about this doctor, verawhite421@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteI was diagnosed of HERPES Virus in 2017 and I have tried all I can to get cured but all to no avail, until i saw a post in a health forum about a herbalist man who prepare herbal medication to cure all kind of diseases including HERPES virus, at first i doubted if it was real but decided to give it a try , when i contact this herbalist and he prepared a HERPES herbal cure and sent it to me via FEDEX delivery company service, when i received this herbal cure, he gave me step by directions on how to apply it, when i applied it as instructed, i was totally cured of this horrible disease within 17days of usage, i went to the hospital for a test and it was negative. I can tell to the public now that am now free from the horrible disease called herpes, all thanks to Dr.Ebhota that is why I want to leave his email address and What's app contact just if you want to contact him for help. you reach this great herbal doctor via his email on (drebhotasolution@gmail.com)website on: https://drebhotasolution.wixsite.com/drebhotaherbalhome / One thing I like about Dr Ebhota is honesty. His very polite with his customers, everything he told me was what he did. His herbal medicine are very affordable, effective, confidential.
