ReplyDeleteRobin,
ReplyDeleteI'm in Heaven! I've been eagerly devouring blogging resources, so I was expecting 3 or 4 new sites out of the 7, if I was lucky. But you've really outdone yourself in this post - a whole 7 new resources for me to sink my teeth into.
Much fun will be had this Winter! ;-)
Many thanks
Allan
