Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

Good places to shop in London and home counties for scrapbook paper

I usually buy DCWV paper stacks online, but after a recent visit to Hobbycraft I'd like to start buying individual sheets. I find it hard to choose individual papers online because you can't compare them or feel the quality/see the vibrance of the colours etc and am also worried that they would get a bit tatty in the post.

Hobbycraft don't really do a big enough range to justify the hour journey though.

Does anyone have any recommendations for shops with lots and lots of paper and card stock choice. I'm in south west London, so shops in London, Surrey, Kent and Essex and possibly Sussex would be easier than north bound counties.

TIA

Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
