RETREAT AGENDA.

Your doing better than me Patty, its 10 years since Rick died and I've still not done the things I was going to in fact in the last two years since I first took ill I have done nothing, if my son had not said he would run me up and back I don't think I would be coming.

Well Billie, don't ever forget that I am blessed with perfect health and loads of energy (they don't call me Duracell Mummy for nothing!) and nobody recognises better than I do that that is the best thing I could ever have in life. Don't beat yourself up for not doing the things you were going to ... if you feel better some time in the future, then you can do them. You are doing one, anyway, in joining us for the retreat and I shall look forward to meeting you! I do honestly realise how very, very lucky I am.

Mia and I are having a lovely time together getting very excited about the Canny Retreat and planning what we are bringing, etc.etc. We had just one little query - re the B & W Layout/Card challenge, is it permissible to bring a layout we have already done, or do we have to bring the stuff and do it there? Thanks!

... and on that note, can you confirm whether the card kit should contain a blank card/card to make it with or just the bits to go on it.

I don't think it matters Maria - as long as everything is there to make a card.
That's how I read it anyway.

well everything including the card itself or everything to go on a card and we provide our own 'blank' is what Im asking.

I will be including a blank.

Card kits i've received in the past included a blank card.

Also the B&W challenge I think we're supposed to do it there

I too am including a blank card, part of the challenge I think, esp if its different.

Also presume that we do the layouts there. Though on the first one we did, someone actually entered a lo that they had done before coming, but just added an embellishement to it...and it won I believe !!!

I'm just going to make provisions for each thing, with a couple of extra bits and assume I'm entering everything.

Yep. Do the challenge there and the card kit to contain the lot, including the blank and the envi if poss.

the photo swap so others can do a lo with it ,

do we just leave the pic out of an envie or put it in one and pass it to you ?? shall we put names and info on reverse or just leave it blank ?

I've put info on the back of mine and it's not in an envelope.

Are the answers to all these q.s being added to the initial post or do we have to read the lot again?

Info on photo on the back if you want, Kim and yes, give them to me, hun. An envie would be good actually then nobody would know what they're working with. Put your name on the front though, so I don't give you your own to do, lol.

Karelyn, I've lost track I'm afraid, so you'll have to read it all again, lol.

Mine's in an envelope with a little note of explanation and details about the pic Already did that last week, phew got it right

Oh, I've just realised this is the agenda thread and not the question thread. No wonder I'm lost.

LOL I think they've all run into one really, cos theres a lot that the other stuff has too, and the chatter thread was quiet for ages

thats my fault cos i found the agenda thread to see if any info in it about what i wanted to know ,so asked my ?? here

sooorrrreeeeee!!

ok i have just checked through this thread and it is a lot of chatter so its just the first post we really need to know .

thanks Kim, phew

I just printed the list off and hope there hasn't been any changes
since them although I'm sure we will get through.

nothing really steph, apart from Lorraine asked if we can fold the pages of our book before we go.

I did see that bit - I shall do that, not a prob.

I'm glad I did, cos after I'd folder 2/3rds of them I realised I had too many pages anyway, but they in reserve if needed now

Nope. Nothing important, Steph but don't worry, I'd let you all know straight away.

Kim, no problem, hun. It's only my brain that's fried.
