Hi Folks,

Thanks for all the kind words. Now all I need is to find some time...

Cheers

Hello everyone, here's my story!
So there I was, less than a week to go before my son's 4th Birthday party and I still haven't made the Dragon Piñata that my wife has promised him. I blow up a large balloon shred some newspaper and after huddling around in the recycling bin have all that I need except time. Some late nights ensue and finally at a quarter to midnight on the eve of the party Zog is complete. I then remember that I've got some modelling balloons that I bought the previous year thinking it would be fun to do something with. The booklet gives instructions for a basic dog, and five minutes later I'm thinking this could be fun!

At the party, I find I've got all the children lining up for swords and I can't make them quickly enough! Of course the balloons are so old every other one bursts and I eventually run out.

But now I'm hooked and just feel inspired by the amazing creations I've seen on here. I've got some supplies from Graham and some ebooks from Thelma, now all I need is some time to practice!

Cheers
Alasdair
