Well... here we are at the end of November... My last entry to my blog was February ... how ridiculous is that?  I actually think that February was perhaps the last quiet moment I had .. since then it has been a complete whirlwind of events ...The facebook page has taken off to extreme levels and I've made some amazing customers that I would like to call friends ... We have a chat in the day time and a laugh in the evening and it certainly keeps me going during busy and stressful times.

Since September I have been working really hard ..... June was crazy for "Apple for the Teacher" keyrings and October went bonkers over Poppy pins .... after selling so many poppies ....  I was really proud to donate £100 towards the Peterborough British Legion Poppy Appeal... It was lovely to visit them at the Paston and Gunthorpe Community Center and see all the hard work that went on for such a lovely cause... Next year we will start early and I intend to up the donation to 10% for each poppy sold.... 

After the poppy appeal came the Christmas rush or should I say "The Slinky Rush" .... after the Slinky Santa and Slinky Snowman ... a group of Slinky Characters popped up ... I've not had a count up yet but I will.... and oh BOY will there be a lot!!!!  The Rudolf is my fave ... but by far the Slinky Santa is the most popular....  How are we going to top that next year?

A big welcome last month to Rhian ... my Glam Glassistant that comes and helps on Saturdays and one evening during the week....  On her first week I was so nervous about her cutting herself on glass and had a HUGE PILE of plasters on hand ... I was later to discover that she was in fact allergic to plasters and did finally cut herself on ... wait for it ... the tape gun!!!! ........Although I do not understand her taste in music (who are these bands... am I old?), she has settled in really well and no trips to casualty have been needed (YET!).

So in a nutshell.... a fantastic year for us ... I can only thank my lovely customers from the website and my facebook page for being such stars.... for the chatting, for the banter, for the orders and for most of all ... for putting up with my lack of admin skills due to lack of time spent on the computer and too much time making lovely glass.... As we grow, I hope this will change but for now ... I thank you for your shouts, nudges and pokes....

Next year ... I want to be bigger and better but still be approachable, affordable and always here for a natter and a pinot at the end of a hard night .... big hugs from me..... xxxxx

    I was lured into a crypto currency investment platform that I came across on Instagram. I lost about $508,000 to this evil scheme after I invested and accumulated profits, I was denied withdrawals on the specified date. I wrote to the customer support but I was given no feedback, I knew I had been scammed and I started to search for a way to recover my crypto. I considered myself fortunate that I stumbled upon a post on the internet web about a recovery expert, Hack Michelle Tyler.

    A man on LinkedIn claimed he was running a highly profitable Bitcoin Mining operation. His profile looked legitimate complete with years of experience in blockchain technology glowing endorsements and professional photos of what appeared to be large Mining rigs. To make his pitch even more convincing, he showed screenshots of past payouts to supposed investors, each one reflecting consistent monthly returns. At the time I was looking for a safe way to diversify my income so his story drew me in quickly. After several conversations he promised me steady guaranteed returns if I invested directly into his mining pool. They spoke confidently, provided a clear timeline of expected profits and even offered to guide me through the transfer process. Feeling reassured by the proof he showed and his professional demeanor I decided to commit. I transferred 12000 believing I had found a reliable source of passive income. For the first two weeks he remained in contact reassuring me that my investment was working and that my first payout would arrive soon. But as weeks turned into months no payment came. When I tried to reach him my messages went unanswered. Soon after his LinkedIn account was deleted. That was when reality hit me I had been scammed. My hard earned money had seemingly disappeared into the void of the blockchain. At that moment GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE became my only hope. I reached out to GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE and explained the entire situation. From the start GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE listened carefully and assured me they had the tools and experience to investigate. They began by examining the Wallet addresses where my money had been sent. GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE then traced the movement of my funds across multiple wallets and Exchanges using advanced blockchain analysis. What impressed me most was the speed. GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE worked day and night uncovering that the scammer was attempting to cash out through a major exchange. Once this was discovered GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE immediately acted with the exchange to freeze the accounts. Their persistence and technical knowledge stopped the scammer from withdrawing my funds. Within only one month GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE successfully recovered my full 12000 and returned it to me. The relief I felt was overwhelming. Without GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE I would have become another silent victim of crypto fraud. Instead GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE gave me back my money and justice was served.

    Being scammed out of $300,860 was devastating. For three years, I tried everything to recover my money with no luck—until I found Brunoe Quick Hack. Their team worked tirelessly and successfully recovered what I had lost. If you’ve been scammed, I can’t recommend them enough. Email:: Brunoequickhack(@)gmail.com
