Captain Tom has been Knighted!
Did you see this? We thought it was a lovely story... he doesn't want to tell people what the Queen said to him as he says it's private! And he said if he had to get down on one knee he might not get up again! He sounds like quite a character! He was delighted to meet the Queen who is only a few years younger than himself.

Yellow Hearts in windows to remember lost ones. 💛💛
You've probably heard by now of the latest idea - first it was pictures of rainbows in windows as a symbol of hope, but now people who have lost loved ones to Coronavirus are being asked to put yellow hearts in their windows. Being able to share the pain is helping grieving families. Let's hope we get on top of this awful virus soon👍

Are you keen to get out again if you’re isolating or would you rather it continued? Perhaps you would feel safer staying in anyway? Is it right to re-open schools, would it be right to ease lockdown but advise all over 70s to stay in even if they are fit and healthy? So many questions. Tell us what you think.

Do you label your Bedding? 😃
We’ve had a surge in orders for bedding labels just recently and are wondering why! Is it because people are getting on with those little jobs that they’ve been thinking about for ages but which perhaps aren’t really crucial – like labelling bedding! If you have different sized sheets and duvets it really is useful to label them! For only £1.20 you can buy 12 labels for Single, Double, King size and even queen size, Superking and Emperor! Who would have thought there were so many different sizes! Check them out on
