Hi Gals...I am letting you know about this, just in case it happens to you!
A few days back I got an email telling me that PICNIK was closing...I signed up for this tool through FLICKR a few years ago, as it was run by GOOGLE and I thought it was a good photo editing suite for my piccies...but alas, it was too slow and I never used it again!
When I signed up for it, I paid for the 1 year membership and didnt tick any boxes for a re-accuring payment from my account and as I have been a member since 2008...or so my account tells me... I have never had a re-ocurring bill!....
But this month they have taken $24.99 which amounts to £16.64 out of my account without my permission, just as they have annonced their closing!!! Hmmm! Dodgy me finks!
I think this is probably a con, because they have never renewed my account before since 2008 and yet the year they are closing they have! sounds suspicious doesn't it!
It also sounds suspicious because they are advertising that if you are a Premium User...which apparently I was, I would get a refund...So what a surprise it was to realise I didnt qualify, because my subscription had run out on the 18th January before the qualifying date of the 20th!
Has this happened to you? Please let me know..as I have tried to get help on the PICNIK helpline...but all you do is go round and round in circles...getting nowhere fast! Grrrr!!
The Happy House is celebrating lil' Max's Birthday this weekend...he is now 10 years old!...which makes him 70 in doggy years! Wow! where did all those years go!
Whatever you are doing...we wish you all a Happy Weekend too...
See you all next week!
Have Fun!
Yes Guys and Gals, as you know this is our 25th Wedding Anniversary year and I wanted to share these two versions of a favourite song of mine...I recently heard Rosie playing it in her bedroom...The tune sounded familiar, but I couldn't quite place it!
She told me it was called Lovesong by Adele...and then it clicked! Hmmm! Lovesong ay! so I googled 'The Cure' and there they were on Youtube, singing their original version released back in 1989... I loved The Cure back in the 80's...I loved the different music genres back then and used to go to 'The Green Man' in Leytonstone to quench my appetite for such tunes.
So as Freddy and I met in the 1980's, (pic of us back then above and below!) here is their original version of Lovesong...
I am dedicating these songs to my beloved hubby, who through thick and thin, I have always loved him...and always will...
...and the winner for the Happy Greetings Card competition is....
SKY BLU PINK
She suggested the lovely idea, that we go on a Murder Mystery Weekend and although all your ideas were wonderful...I rather fancied that the best!
...Even Rosie fancies the idea of going on one...!
So thank you to all...and could the winner please identify themselves...as I have no contact email :(
Thanks my lovelies...speak soon :)
I have been meaning to show you this little treasure for a while now!...Gosh I have owned it for about 10 years, but because it is so pretty and cute I have wanted to have it on show.
Its actually an underbed storage bag, with as you can see the cutest little poodle having fun 'pampering herself' but I have been afraid to display her anywhere...hence, it has been hidden away in my material cupboard for too long!
When I did have a vintage bedstead I didn't want to put it under the bed as the little sweet cutie pooch wouldn't be seen! and now we have a divan base (ha ha you know why!!!!lol) anyway!
So what do you think I should use it for?...where would you display it? Remember my house is pretty cluttered already...so I would like some pretty cool ideas, Please ;)

I thought I would show you some of the pictures that I found whilst sorting them all out and putting them into files...
This is a never ending job! lol!
I hope they bring you some inspiration for a lazy sunday ;)
