As a believer in all things magical and mythical I found a lot of enjoyment in my personal fairy collection. I believe that seeing the gorgeous details and intricate work that goes into so many of the paintings and statues, can inspire feelings that makes one wish that fairies were real. Fairies have a way of putting a smile on your face. I get such pleasure looking at the works of fairy artists, and inspiration to do my own sketches and paintings. It brings escapism from the every day bad news that’s plastered in our TV news and papers. Fantasy is a nice place to visit from time to time. Some people like dragons, some people like unicorns. Does it matter what they believe in or hope for if it brings to them a sense of magic in their lives?

Stardust was an absolutely delightful film. The story is pure magic and although most ‘fairy tales’ are for children, Stardust is a film for almost anyone aged 8 and up.

Tristan is the son of Dunstan and the slave of an old witch called Ditchwater Sal who travels about in a caravan. The couple met after Dunstan snuck over ‘The Wall’ that leads to an enchanted land, and there he meets the captured slave and they fall in love instantly. 9 months later Dunstan recieves a knock at the door and is handed a baby boy in a wicker basket. Unfortunately, when Tristan was born, the captive slave was not allowed to keep him and instead sent him to live with his father. She put in his basket a “Babylon candle”, and a letter to Tristan explaining everything.

The story then jumps eighteen years to Tristan as a young man, in love with the prettiest girl (and shallowest) named Victoria in a small English town (Wall Village). Victoria and Dunstan watch a star fall from the sky and Victoria tells Dunstan he has 1 week to bring her the star or she’ll marry another lad who’s been courting her. He is desperate to bring Victoria the fallen star by her birthday. He uses the candle to fly to where the star landed, which is not in England but a magical land called Stormhold. But then he discovers that the star is not what he expected. It is actually a beautiful, immortal and spirited woman named Yvaine. Despite this, Tristan is determined to marry Victoria and uses a silver chain that his father obtained after trying to free the princess to take Yvaine to England, promising to use the last of the magic candle to take her back to the sky afterwards.

However, Tristan is not the only one seeking the star. Yvaine is in terrible danger because the living sons of the King are looking for her because only the jewel that she carries can secure the throne to one of them. Septimus, one of the princes, later finds out that a star’s heart grants immortality so wants to devour her heart so that he can rule the kingdom forever. Additionally the three witches known as “The Lilim” — Mormo, Empusa and the eldest and the most powerful, Lamia want her because they want to recover their beauty and eternal youth.

As Tristan sets out to protect Yvaine and bring her back to his beloved at the other side of the wall his journey brings incredible encounters with the pirate Captain Shakespeare and a shady trader among others. Yvaine and Tristan fall in love. Yvaine confesses her feelings to Tristan after the witch Ditchwater Sal turns him into a mouse, Yvaine not realizing that he can still understand her.

After being changed back into a human Tristan is too exhausted from his transformation to continue the journey, and the two stop at an inn. Tristan tells Yvaine that he returns her love. While Yvaine sleeps, Tristan cuts a piece of her hair and goes back to England to tell Victoria that he no longer loves her. However when he tries to give Victoria the hair he finds that it has turned into stardust, or rock and he tells Victoria to grow up and then some. He realizes that Yvaine cannot enter England and stay in human form and hurries back to the other side of the wall to find her.

and that..is all you get because I wont spoil the ending.
There is some scenes that would be considered violent by some standards, the use of magic and witch craft and a lot of adventure.

The stars in this film are Michelle Pfeiffer, Claire Danes, Peter O’Toole, Charlie Cox, Robert De Niro and Ricky Gervais.

No more doggie prison!

No more of me going to wash down and disinfect her walls and change her blankets to make sure she was dry and comfortable.

It was wonderful to see Casey go into the house wagging her tail as she took in her surroundings. She did exactly as I predicted..made a beeline for the sofa, jumped up onto it and then down as she spotted her sister Clipsey. She ran through the house and one could almost hear a “Wheeeeeeeeeeee I’m home!!”
Suddenly, as fast as she ran into the kitchen, she came to a grinding halt and starting barking and growling.
I was like..what the?? Then I burst out laughing because what Casey was barking at was my mannequin on the worktop. She had never seen it before and thought it was a strange person. It was too funny.

She didn’t even have to be told to come upstairs with Steve and I at bedtime. She ran up the stairs just as she always had and laid on her bed, and in the morning I woke up and there, in our bed sleeping like she always used to do was Casey. She always hopped into our bed when Steve left for work.

I really thought that after 6 long months that Casey would have to be re-taught but I am so happy to say I thought wrong!

And then I had a sad thought, did Casey, whilst in quarantine, have sad memories and hurt inside remembering she used to do that? It really bugs me to think my dog would have felt the lonliness and been homesick remembering what she had.

But thankfully it’s over for Casey now..she’s home where she belongs. God I’ve missed her.

Revealed: a secret parcel hoard
By Patrick Sawer and Miles Erwin
Last Updated: 1:06am GMT 29/10/2007

He estimates the dispute has cost him about £10,000 and hit customer loyalty. The former driving instructor, from Shoeburyness, Essex, said: “We rely totally on Royal Mail. They messed up big time and an apology would be nice. But as it is, the posties go on strike and I have to pay for it.”

The only day the collection staff are participating in strikes is 03:00 Tuesday 16th October until 03:00 Wednesday 17th October. Royal Mail Group has put in place additional resource and contingencies that should prevent a notable disruption to collections.

No items will be delivered on Tuesday the 16th October. Regular postal delivery should occur on all other days during week commencing 15th October.

Members who are trading around the time of the strike should bear in mind that payments and items being sent by post are likely to be delayed. If you think that the payment or item you are sending will be affected by the strike, it is advisable to inform the person you are trading with. If you are waiting for payment or delivery of an item, please be patient.

Further information on how postal services will be disrupted is available via the Royal Mail website

The Royal Mail is holding last minute talks with the Communication Workers Union (CWU), but without a breakthrough a 48-hour walkout will start from noon.

——————————————————————————–

The Communications Workers Union (CWU) has announced further strike action. Two 48-hour strikes are planned. The first will begin at lunchtime on Thursday 4th October and ends at lunchtime on Saturday 6th October. The second will begin in the early hours of Monday 8th October, ending in the early hours of Wednesday 10th October.

Special Delivery will continue to be a priority throughout the period of disruption. We have well developed contingency plans, and will do all we can to deliver Special Delivery items on the due day. However, money-back guarantees will be suspended for items posted on 4th October onwards and will be reinstated as soon as we are sure we can fulfill the service promise
Door to Door – We will not be able to maintain a Door to Door service. Royal Mail is therefore applying Force Majeure for all Door to Door contracts scheduled for delivery during the weeks commencing October 8th, October 15th and October 22nd 2007. Please see the section below for more details
Redirection, Keepsafe and Diversion – Our advertised standard for setting up these services is likely to be affected by the industrial action, and so our customers should expect delays
Redelivery will be suspended during the initial industrial action and will be reinstated as soon as we are sure we can fulfill the service promise. Customers collecting items should be aware that enquiry office opening times may vary from normal, and some may be closed on strike days
Access mail – We will not give access mail special priority during strikes and period of recovery. We will deal with mail in the order we receive it, regardless of whether it has come directly from our customers, or from a supplier of Downstream Access.

Fairy Magyk will be offering courier service to those who ask for it. Other purchases made marked with FREE post to (MAINLAND) UK will have no problems recieving their purchases.
I’ll keep everyone updated regarding this strike.
PLEASE do not hold your sellers responsible if your item takes a while to reach you. They like myself, are doing the best they can to get your parcels to you on time. The length of time Royal Mail gets the post to you is out of our hands.
Thank you for your continuing patience through these times.

After a few minutes, she brought the vole to me and I thanked her for her lovely ( ewww ) gift and gave her a gentle stroke whilst muttering under my breath, “bad kitty, you shouldn’t do things to other creatures, blah blah”
I like the voles, and I think little mice are cute too. I feel sorry for them that they so easily fall prey to cats, but that’s life after all.
In her little cat mind she has no idea that she’s done anything that is wrong, she just wanted to give us a present to show her affection.
Why can’t she find us a wad of 20′s and drop them at our feet instead?

Next week’s strike info:

Our International hub (HWDC) will be on official strike from 19.00 on Monday 6th August till 19.00 Tuesday 7th August. As a result, Royal Mail’s international services, Airsure, International Signed For and Airmail, will be subject to delays

All Regional Distribution Centres (RDCs) and our Network drivers will be on official strike from 12:00 noon Tuesday 7th August till 12:00 noon on Wednesday 8th August. There may be limited bulk mail collections but these are likely to be earlier in the day than usual

The following Mail Centres will be on official strike from 3am on Wednesday 8th August until 3am on Thursday 9th August: Gatwick; Reading and Dartford. Customers can continue to post items, as usual, on this day but we recommend posting in Post Boxes only. There will be limited business collections in these areas on Wednesday August 8th

The following delivery offices will be on official strike from 3am on Wednesday 8th August until 3am on Thursday 9th August: Crewe; Portsmouth; Gatwick; Reading; Truro; Swansea and Dartford. We regret that there will be no delivery services in these areas on Wednesday 8th August. Collections will be limited to a single collection from Post Boxes outside of Post Offices. This may be earlier than the normal advertised times

Parcelforce Worldwide’s guaranteed services will remain unaffected

Royal Mail’s Branch Direct, Sameday and Door to Door services remain unaffected

All other mail services will be subject to delay

And, just to help matters, the following mail centres are taking unofficial strike action, so if your buyers are served by any of these, they’re stuffed too:

Liverpool City Delivery Office
Chester Mail Centre
Newcastle Mail Centre
Aberdeen Mail Centre
Liverpool Mail Centre
Edinburgh Mail Centre
Kilmarnock Delivery Office
Johnstone Delivery Office
Glasgow G1 to G4 Delivery Office

Glasgow Mail Centre

We’re smack dab in the middle of a majour disruption to postal services by striking workers. Right now, there’s currently a two week period of strike action taking place, with different departments of the postal service affected on different days.

This not only affects the actual days that the strikes are carried out, but it also seems to be creating a massive backlog of parcels in many areas. More and more people are complaining of slow delivery, items not being received etc.

If you’re an eBay shopper or an Internet shopper, please, please please be patient when buying items, and trust that your sellers are doing their absolute best to get your parcels to you.

Remember, sellers hands are tied because of these postal disruptions.

This (insert your adjective here) mail situation is completely beyond your seller’s control, and so very many people are experiencing delays.
