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

    As cryptocurrency continues to reshape global finance, cybercriminals are finding new ways to exploit investors through scams, hacks, phishing attacks, fake investment platforms, and other forms of digital asset fraud. For many victims, knowing where to turn after a loss can be one of the biggest challenges. Techy Force Cyber Retrieval was founded with one clear mission: to give victims of crypto fraud a fighting chance through professional blockchain investigations and cybersecurity expertise.

    Our team brings together experienced blockchain analysts, digital forensic specialists, cybersecurity professionals, and legal partners who work collaboratively to investigate cryptocurrency-related crimes. Using advanced blockchain forensic tools and global investigative techniques, we analyze transaction histories, trace digital asset movements where possible, identify valuable investigative leads, and prepare evidence that may assist clients and the appropriate authorities.

    We believe blockchain should represent transparency, accountability, and trust—not fear. That’s why we’re committed to helping victims understand their options, navigate the investigative process, and take informed action after cryptocurrency fraud.

    Every case is different, and while no legitimate recovery service can promise a successful recovery, acting quickly and working with experienced professionals can improve the quality of an investigation. At Techy Force Cyber Retrieval, we do more than investigate digital crimes—we advocate for victims, pursue the facts, and help people regain confidence after cryptocurrency fraud.

They were honest, patient, and took the time to explain everything clearly without making false promises.

    I never thought I would become a victim of a crypto investment scam. Like many people searching for financial freedom, I was attracted by promises of high returns and what appeared to be a legitimate investment platform. The website looked professional, the representatives were convincing, and the success stories seemed genuine. Believing I was making a smart decision, I invested my savings over several months. At first, everything appeared to be going well. My account showed impressive profits, and I was encouraged to invest more to maximize my earnings. Excited by the apparent growth, I continued depositing funds until my total investment reached $110,000. Then everything changed. The moment I tried to withdraw my profits, I was hit with endless fees, verification charges, and excuses. Every payment I made was followed by another demand. Eventually, the platform stopped responding entirely. My account became inaccessible, and the reality sank in I had lost $110,000 to a sophisticated crypto investment scam. The loss devastated me emotionally and financially. I struggled to sleep, lost my appetite, and constantly replayed my decisions in my head. The money represented years of hard work, sacrifices, and plans for my family’s future. I felt embarrassed, helpless, and completely alone. While searching for possible solutions, I came across Rightwaylaw Cyber Recovery. Although I was skeptical after being deceived before, their team treated my case with professionalism and transparency from the very beginning. They carefully analyzed the transaction records, traced the movement of funds, and kept me informed throughout the process. Weeks later, I received the news I had almost given up hoping for my lost funds had been successfully recovered. The relief was indescribable. Rightwaylaw Cyber Recovery gave me a second chance when I thought everything was lost. Today, I share my experience as a warning to others and as a reminder that hope can still exist even after devastating financial loss.

    I’m a French data analyst based in Paris, France, and I had been exploring various investment opportunities. Having invested in crypto for the past 11 years, I was able to build a substantial portfolio of both Bitcoin and Ethereum.
    However, my journey took a devastating turn when I lost nearly half of my portfolio, around €678,000. I thought I had lost everything, but I was eventually referred by a cybersecurity specialist to Morphohack Cyber Service. Morphohack, a crypto recovery company, helped me recover all of my crypto assets.
    Morphohack Cyber Service is a reputable and reliable company, and I highly recommend their services. Having heard a great deal about how crypto scams operate, I was genuinely impressed by the professionalism and expertise they demonstrated throughout my case. You can contact them by email ( Morphohack@Cyberservices.com) or search for them online for more info.
    Thank you.
