Connected

Watch out world - I received my headphones with mic yesterday from Skype and I can now chat for free anywhere in the world and all from my trusty old laptop - so far I haven't chatted with anyone :(

Yesterday was a good post day and it was a good job I was up early as the post arrived at 8.30am and delivered by van. The beautiful tiara and pendant/earring set arrived from Bridal Designs Wedding Jewellery and they are absolutely gorgeous - I had to have a look in the box which meant untying the ribbon so now I have the bother of trying to retie the ribbon so that it looks professional and not like some idiot has tied it :( Tracey who makes this gorgeous jewelley also sent me some postcards which I have added to my box of things to take to the wedding fair.

Also in the post yesterday was my free copy of Gift Focus - this magazine is produced by the same publishers as the county wedding magazines and Attire Bridal. I like this magazine because it shows what is new in the gift market and this month features items that will be on display at the Autumn Fair at the NEC - I am hoping to become a supplier of wedding stationery having seen some gorgeous items. I shall definitely attend on the final day as this is the day when stall holders will get rid of stuff rather than take it home, I remember this feature from the time when I worked for Sommer Allibert UK (the distributors of luxurious French garden furniture).

I also received details from HMCA about breakdown recovery via the FSB which I can get for £7.30 a month, I have decided to pay this from my personal account as opposed to my business one and then will change over next year. I really need to start earning some money.

I must try and find my log on details for Kline Davis too so that I can amend my advert on their website (the current one is naff).

This week I am going to try and get a jump start for my car - I have decided to ask a friend and local coucillor as when he found out that I had had eye surgery asked me to contact him if I needed anything. I cannot wait to get out on the roads of South Birmingham and Worcestershire.
