I have just received the first package from my new Secret Pal - in
Victoria Australia. Thank you!
I haven't decided yet whether to use all the beads for bobbin spangles
or to incorporate the cloisonne (sp?) ones into a necklace and the
green bag is most appropriate - my New Year resolution
Dear friends,
Thank you so very much Avital and Kathleen, for finding my lost
verse, 'The Faith that moved a Mountain' by Patience Strong, and so
quickly, I am really very grateful.
Try as I might, I could not remember it, just a line here and there, I
wish I had thought of asking for help
Dear S.P.

make Bucks Point Lace to put on it.Purchased from China
Dear S.P.,
Apologies for being a little late, our package arrived last week - guess the
Christmas Mail is slowing things down. Thank you for my lovely gifts,
saving the scarf for holidays - especially on the plane when you get all
those draughts during night time flying. Pam I should have
Hi
Thank you for the welcome package which arrived a few days ago - took
slightly longer this time! The jelly beans were good. Have never seen the
'bath gloves' must try them once I have got my foot better - not allowed to
get it wet! and I do like the pen - it writes good.

Spiders,
Thanks to the many of you who responded to my mystification with regard to
dsps. I now know that this is a dessert spoon and that it is roughly two
teaspoons, half a tablespoon. This sounds like a vintage measure, yet none
of my 100-year-old cookbooks have it.
Now I can make the sweet

Dear Weronika,
A couple of times a year, all on the Arachne lists get the opportunity, if they
so wish, to sign up and take part in a round of gift exchanges. The idea is
that you send a small gift each month to another member of the list, but they
don't know who you are till the final one, when

Hi,
I'd like to thank my secret pal for the packet of gifts this
month. Unfortunately I'm having to fight with my children as to who gets
to use them - they like the pen and the watch as much as I do. The
chocolates were great and the notepad is already getting used. I write a
