and the card that popped up in the random draw was this one......(sorry it's tiny, I couldn't copy it any bigger) from

If you can both email me with your address and telephone number and which fine tips set you would like, I will get them mailed out to you. Congratulations!

Thanks to all of you who entered, and as I said yesterday, the challenges will start again in the new year. In the meantime, keep checking in here as there will be random Letraset marker giveaways

I promised to tell you about the Domestic Goddess tips in the magazine I found lurking under the coffee table - it was all a bit of a letdown, and I am no more of a goddess than I was yesterday. They had dressed up various celebrities (Joanna Lumley amongst them) in white evening dresses then photographed them looking glamorous with a vacuum cleaner or a feather duster. Bizarre! Without fail, they all said they liked nothing better when they were not attending A list parties, than cleaning their bathrooms and scrubbing the floors. A likely story. I suppose the white dresses were ironic, I can imagine the delirium when someone thought of that twist. But if they really like cleaning, I have plenty they can do, I'll borrow their nice white dress and go to their parties in exchange....
