Brace yourselves!!! LOL!:rotfl:

Bear in mind that I'm a stay-at-home-mammy...

1) What was the best thing that happened to your Nursery/School/Minding home in 2006 Just being constantly amazed by 2 year-old DD's progress!! *proud smile*
2) What have you enjoyed most this year? Being part of the Silkysteps team and learning to pixel draw!
3) What have you enjoyed least this year? Being ill - no-one told me that bringing children into your home also brings every bug going!! :vomit:
4) What plans do you have for 2007? More of the same - lots of lists and learning more about the technical side!
5) What has most surprised you the most over the last year? How much I can do on the pc, how many new cyber-friends I now have and my kids! *warm glow*
6) Name one unusual or funny thing that happened. Just refer to most of my conversations on Silkysteps!! :blush:
7) Are you happy with what you’ve achieved this year? Yes!
8) If you could change jobs tomorrow which Setting/place and position would you choose? I wouldn't change being a stay-at-home-mammy, but if pushed I would swap with Ruth, so I could glean more knowledge and not be so jealous of her cleverness! :bump:
9) Which (any type) company/group do you most admire most? Ruth & Silkysteps
10) If £10,000 was given to you as a no strings gift how much of it would you spend on your business? N/A, but I could put it to good use.....

Non specific (you may NOT say none or neither!)

1) Beer, spirits or wine? Wine, closely followed by beer :burp:
2) Only fools and horses or one foot in the grave? Only Fools & Horses:rotfl:
3) Family – fun or nightmare? FUN FUN FUN!! :jump: (I'm the sane one!)
4) Ho ho ho or bah humbug? HO HO HO
5) Turkey or chicken? Chick, chick, chick, chick, chicken
6) Mint or orange matchmakers Oooooh!! Mint, no orange, no....I'll have to go and buy both and let you know!
7) Do you buy seasonal foods ? YES!!! Cakes, biscuits, sweeties, sprouts, parsnips, stuffings, sauces, everything!

*sniff* :weepy: :blush: Thank you Ruth for your kind words (The tenner's in the post!), you know I love being part of the crew and what would you all do without my lists? While we're doing a mutual backslap, I would just like to say THANK YOU for giving me this opportunity, and for giving me the confidence and encouragement to learn new skills, you're one of the best.
