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

    Hey, so a while back I met someone online who called themselves crypt0 investment strategists. We hit it off immediately chatting about art, antiques, even our shared love for vintage watches, all that good stuff. They had me hooked with their big talk about how they’d crushed it in crypt0 and how it was gonna take over the world. I thought, “Eh, what’s a couple grand to dip my toes in?”. At first, it felt like things were going fine, but then it all turned into a total mess. They kept pushing me to throw in more cash like, a lot more saying my “profits” were stacking up. But when I tried to cash out? Yeah, that’s when it went sideways. In just three months, I’d sent $390,000 in Bitc0in from my wallet over five transactions. Then, boom, my wallet got hacked, and I was freaking out.
    That’s when I deep searched for recovery experts and came across one, Maestro Encrypter Financier. I spilled the whole story to them, and after they dug into it, they figured out I’d been played by just one person this whole time. They jumped in fast, locked down my wallet, and somehow managed to claw my remaining Bitc0in back from the scammer total pros. The lesson? Online trust is a minefield. What starts as a friendly chat about shared hobbies can spiral into a nightmare. If something feels off, it probably is. And if you’re lucky enough to find help, hold onto it. I am eternally grateful to maestroencrypter @ financier . com for their invaluable services.

    MOST SUCCESSFUL ETH RECOVERY EXPERT/WEB BAILIFF CONTRACTOR
    I chanced upon CheapCrypt0 net as I was scouting for a cryptocurrency exchange website that had lower fees and more arbitrage possibilities than popular Binance. Tempted by the possibility of profit, I took a leap into the unknown and traded approximately $45,700.567 USDC for Ethereum. At first, everything appeared to go well, and I was hopeful about my investment.
    But when I tried to move my newly bought Ethereum to my primary crypt0 wallet, I faced a critical issue. The site continuously showed a message, “Trying again…” while my money remained stuck on CheapCrypt0 net. Panic began as the minutes ticked into hours. I started to suspect that I had been a victim of scammers.In desperation, I started looking for ways to get my lost money back. That’s when I stumbled upon Web Bailiff Contractor, a company that offers services to help people retrieve lost or stolen cryptocurrency. Their track record of helping scam victims and fraudulent platforms made me feel hopeful. I contacted them, describing my case and the ordeal I had with CheapCrypt0 net.Web Bailiff Contractor team was very responsive and professional. They walked me through how to document my transaction and gave me the procedures to file a recovery request. Their professionalism in dealing with such cases was evident, and I knew I was in good hands. Some time later,Web Bailiff Contractor began their investigation into CheapCrypto net. They used advanced tracing techniques to trace the flow of my money and identify the scammers who had run the platform. Their diligence and dedication to assisting me in recovering my lost funds were astounding.It took only a few days of hard work, and I was informed of the wonderful news that Web Bailiff Contractor had been able to track down my Ethereum and arrange for its return. I was thrilled to have my $45,700.567 returned, and I could not be more thankful for the assistance I was provided.This has been a great learning experience for me in doing my due diligence before committing to new trading sites.Although the promise of reduced fees and arbitrage may be tempting, reliability and safety must take precedence. Thanks to Web Bailiff Contractor, I was able to recover my money and my peace of mind. I told them I will make sure that I share the good news with other people who were in the same situation, to let them know that there is hope and Web Bailiff Contractor is always available 24/7.

    HOW CAN I RECOVER MY STOLEN CRYPTO ASSET → HIRE FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER
    Recovering stolen Bitcoin can feel like an insurmountable challenge, especially after falling victim to scams that promise high returns with little investment. My journey began with excitement when I first learned about Bitcoin mining pools. The idea of earning substantial profits from a modest investment was enticing. I was encouraged to invest $5,200, and soon found myself caught in a web of endless demands for more money to access my funds. As time went on, I paid out hundreds of thousands of dollars, believing that each payment would finally unlock my investments. However, the requests never ceased, and I soon realized I was trapped in a scam. The weight of losing $826,000 worth of Bitcoin was unbearable, and I felt utterly helpless. I reached out to authorities, but their responses were disheartening, leaving me feeling even more isolated in my struggle. In my desperation, I even went to pray, seeking guidance and hope in what felt like a hopeless situation. I poured my heart out, asking for a sign or a way to recover my lost funds. It was during this time of reflection that I began searching for solutions online, hoping to find a way to recover my investments. That’s when I stumbled upon FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER . At first, I was cynical after all, I had already been deceived so many times. However, I decided to reach out and share my story. The team at FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER was understanding and compassionate, assuring me they had the expertise to help me recover my stolen Bitcoin. Within hours of providing them with the necessary information, I began to see progress. They guided me through the recovery process, keeping me informed every step of the way.

To my astonishment, I received confirmation that my Bitcoin had been successfully recovered. The relief and joy I felt were indescribable. I had almost given up hope, but FUNDS RETRIEVER ENGINEER proved to be the lifeline I desperately needed.
