It took a long time for me to realise, even though I am quite bright, that stuff in my life happens in twos.  I am always waiting for the other shoe to drop, and relieved when it does.  I put pots of flowers  by the front door in the prescribed threes and fives but I fiddle around with them until there are two, and that looks right to me.  It works with health for me, I couldn\u2019t just have cancer (twice) I had to have adhesions too.<\/font><\/p>\n

Once the second thing has appeared, blinking from the mists of the future, I feel better.<\/font><\/p>\n

Last night the S&H rang to say his job is in jeopardy because the firm he works for is being taken over by the firm he left previously, backed by a middle Eastern bank.<\/font><\/p>\n

I had a horrible feeling when I worried about all the people losing their jobs at Create and Craft that that wasn\u2019t it. <\/em>I knew there was something else and in a phone call while the OH was out carousing, I found out what it was.<\/font><\/p>\n

I told you this column would not be here without Lynne, it wouldn\u2019t be here without the S&H either, who designed it for his mum for a lark because he could.<\/font><\/p>\n

He\u2019s very good with computery things.  He is currently a Cloud Platform manager, who designed his own video game aged eleven and has got better since.  He went to America to help Microsoft with something for another lark when he\u2019d just finished being a student.<\/font><\/p>\n

So, if you want the S&H to work for you, email me and I\u2019ll pass you on, if you want to watch Leonie, or buy pretty glue or some cracking stamps, click on this www.artinspirations.co.uk<\/a>   If you are missing AALL and Create from the telly click on this www.aallandcreate.com<\/a> <\/font><\/p>\n

Anything else head down to Leave a comment <\/u>and well, you know, leave a comment.<\/font><\/p>\n

I will try very hard to post about something positive next time.<\/font><\/p>\n
