chaos dreams

Due to a gastro plague that is currently working it’s way through my family, the Pookey Pockets shop will be temporarily closed until such time as we are all better again! Hopefully things will be back to normal again next week (Tues 19/8/08), but please call me to double check if you are unsure. (contact numbers at right of my homepage)
Orders can still be placed through the website or via email, and will be filled as soon as I’m back at the shop again.
Thanks for your understanding, and please accept my apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Yep, you guessed it, we’ve all been hit by the winter sniffles that have been going around. It is truly amazing how many tissues a family of 6 can go through in a week! (been trying to convince them that hankies are a good alternative, but not having much luck yet!) Things are getting back to normal though now, which is good, because last week I felt rather like I’d been hit by a freight train!

The good news for the week is that microfleece is back in stock! YAY!!!

Thirteen gorgeous colours to choose from - details and photos will be up on the website in the next couple of days, once my internet is no longer speed-limited (but that’s another whinge altogether, so I’ll save that for another post!)

Finding space for all the rolls at the shop is going to be an interesting exercise though! *giggle*

I’ve also got minkee/Malden Mills fleece covers in stock at the shop, again details should be uploaded to the website very soon! Otherwise feel free to email me for details.

And last but not least, there’s some new products that will be available at the shop soon - Popit nappies, from NZ, and a range of ribbon goodies from Ribbonista. Oh, and a few special products from Pookey Pockets will be previewing at Ozebaby later next month, so stay tuned…

Hasn’t that gone fast!?!

I had a June 3rd deadline to have Rhiannon’s communion/confirmation dress finished… and I’ve made it with days to spare! (well, I still need to do the hand finishing on the jacket, but that’s only a half hour job) Photos are here.

Moving the website to the new domain and server seems to have mostly gone ok, there are a couple of niggly errors still, but they don’t affect the working of the cart, just look bad. I’m still working on finding out what the problem is. (If you’re a tech genius and can tell me how to fix it, please do, lol!! I’ll give you a nappy!!)

So now, back to the grindstone to get some stock into the store and finish getting things organised for my special project - things should start happening pretty soon!!
