Hi Tilley I agree its great to watch how something is done rather than trying to figure out charts or written instructions! i've been learning the increases and decreases for lace knitting patterns by watching wendy and yesterday she showed a double cast off.. never even heard of it before! Glad...

Hi all, Wondering what opinions people have on the knitting and crochet shows/products? I have found the demos useful and particularly Wendy Pooles knitting techniques, she's a very good teacher and patient! I think it's a shame that they mostly sell cheap end yarns, novelty pom pom types rather...

Hi Miss Kitty, I'm so sorry to hear the appalling way you have been treated and can't believe how rude the customer service person has behaved towards a long standing and loyal customer. Do you think this was a particularly jobsworth idiot who dealt with you? Maybe you would consider making a...

Sorry!!! It's a fine line between being excited and showing off but I am ridiculously excited. Of course I'll post photos Pink, in the bling. Haven't given up with the jewellery channels but just fed up with the system. Argey, don't worry, I'll get my come uppance when it's beans on toast for...

Nice to see you Pink! If only these companies realised that they have no need to pull the wool over viewers eyes, there are plenty of items I would buy, but the shadiness is putting me right off. If they can no longer sell something on air, just be honest, wouldn't bother me, I would wait for...

Hi Pink PC! I got cross a couple of weeks ago about the same issue with TJC. Having been shown showstoppers non stop, I reasonably expected to see them being auctioned eventually, maybe inbetween the ordinary bits and pieces, but no, nothing appeared, it was always 'coming up next.' Losing...

So very rare rare they've set it in sterling sterling silver!

Hi Gem, Sacha and Meeshoo, Thanks..you guys really are the best! I will take a look at all your recommendations and once my refund is in I will enjoy choosing something really special and your advice has fired up my enthusiasm again! There is nothing like personal recommendations for pointing...

Hi PPC, Just wanted to say hi, I don't know which presenter Rachel Galley is, but when I was watching a couple of weeks ago I was trying to spot the text number on screen, it seems to have disappeared, anyway eventually Ian mentioned it, but at the speed of light, too quick for me! A couple of...

Hi Gem, Meeshoo and Diamond! Thanks very much for your replies, it's encouraging to know that Iliana diamonds are mostly pleasing and the quality high. I'm thinking that I was just unlucky this time, and I have to admit the high street shops do not appeal, especially at this time of year when...

Hi all, A couple of weeks ago I watched a luxury diamond hour (!!) and despite moving the phone into the kitchen under the tea cosy, I found myself fancying a ring. Dashed to the phone and ordered, having scribbled down the presenter, Ian's description. Felt excited about the purchase and...

Hi Meeshoo, What a treat to see your paraibas in their new settings, I think the colour and neon qualities show really well in your photos. Well done for having the vision to create the new settings, I love the double row of diamonds in the first ring and the triple on the second. A really...

Hi Meeshoo, many thanks for your reply, I regard your input as very worthwhile on these boards and always enjoy your posts, I hope we will be happily posting and replying to each other for a long time to come! Love Briolette x

Thank you, I do love the ring and i apologise for jumping on your comments.

It is the safeguard valuation which is important and quite frankly I trust the experts to value my ring rather than a forum member. The evidence of the rings quality is in the safeguard valuation and the experts opinion, you are totally wrong about its worth. I have not commented adversely about...

And furthermore the ring is in a fabulous TASTEFUL setting, unlike some others I have seen posted on here.

poor sod yourself I do not appreciate being called a poor sod meeshoo. I did my research before and after purchasing the ring you refer to, in the 30 days I had the ring examined and valued by Safeguard and was entirely satisfied with the evaluation. The emerald is a very good colombian stone...

Wow Argey, whoever gets to go to the post office had better have a lend of the posties trolley!! What a haul! I love the moonstone and amethyst ring and the murano pendant best, really interesting and unusual..enjoy wering the keepers xxx

Thanks Argey, you're a pal! lots of love to you too xxx

Pink, ive taken your advice. Life is too short, just had some very sad news this morning and it has put everything else into perspective. Thankyou x
