One entry per individual to keep it fair for everyone taking part please. Thank you.
Anyone can enter the giveaway, you don't have to have a blog.

I have REALLY enjoyed blogging, I have got so much more out of it than I ever expected. I have discovered so many lovely and inspiring blogs, have made friends with some lovely fellow bloggers and been in touch with some whom I have not met yet.
I had not expected it to be such a friendly community. It had not occured to me that it would be like that when I first started out. So... a BIG THANK YOU for following my blog, sending me emails, leaving comments and last but not least....for your friendship ;-)
ENTRIES WILL BE VALID UNTIL WEDNESDAY 3rd MARCH 2010 - 23.59 GMT.
THE DRAW WILL TAKE PLACE ON THE MORNING OF THURSDAY 4th MARCH 2010.
ATTIC UPDATE: The loss adjuster has had a look at it today and guess what..? It's not covered.... A roofer is coming to have a look at it on Monday, we'll be told more about the extent of it then.
A bientôt!

Dear Isabelle,
you are such a wonderful Blogging friend. Your posts have given me so much joy and inspiration. I'd love to win the giveaway but the true gift is getting to meet you - so I feel a winner anyway. I'm sorry to hear about your roof. I shall have to read back through your posts. I have been in a whirlwind preparing for my sweet, simple little wedding which is next Saturday. It has a theme of Alice in Wonderland in the 70's to it. I shall be very glad when it's all over and I can relax! I hope all is well with your family. Enjoy your weekend, Isabelle. xx
Très "bon anniversaire" à votre blog !
Même si ça ne fait que quelques semaines que je l'ai découvert, j'apprécie mes balades quasi-quotidiennes dans votre univers.
Si j'ai bien compris (et oui, vu que je ne pratique pas régulièrement la langue de Shakespeare, j'ai des lacunes parfois ... LOL) un couvreur doit passer voir le toit de votre maison ?..
Alors, j'espère de tout coeur qu'il va vite découvrir d'où vient toute l'eau.
Have a nice day Isabelle !
Happy Blogiversary. Doesn't time go quickly once you enter the wonderful world of Blogging.

Congratulations on your one year blogging anniversary, Isabelle! Everything in your giveaway is just wonderful! p.s. I'm so sorry about your roof.
Good morning. I know how you are feeling. I have rain in my attic which actually went down to the third floor. Such fun. While the rest of the country is getting snow, it is funny that up here in Maine, where you would expect snow, we had 8 inches of pounding rain. Oh well that is why I make a pot of tea, go to my blogs I visit, and sit back and relax. I agree, the blogging community is such a happy place to go to. Please sign me up for your lovely give away. Thank you.
Isabelle, I love your blog so much! I miss England, the land of my birth, every day, and your blog and its lovely pictures allow me a glipse at my homeland's beauty. Thank you for sharing all of your lovely vintage finds as well- they are the prettiest!
Happy Anniversary, and good luck with your roof!

Happy One Year. I'm quite new to blogging & it's such a great community.
Your attic looks like mine did down south - I'm now on the Isle of Skye where we have to hang on to our roof tiles! It has been the brightest least wet winter here since 10 years :)
I've just discovered your blog and feel we are kindred spirits! I dream of cool England from hot Texas! Congratulations on your anniversary. I look forward to your updates.
Congratulations on your anniversary. Beautiful giveaway!
How sweet of you! Happy blog anniversary! Suzie
Congratulations on your first anniversary.
I only discovered "blogs" several months ago - and what a treasure trove they have proved.
As a result I have (re)learned to crochet, dug out my 1970's Laura Ashley material and started to look at "vintage" with a completely new eye.
Thank you to you and all the other lovely bloggers for sharing (I'm not brave enough to start my own blog though!)
I am so sorry about your roof - I hope the damage is not too disastrous for you. And well done on reaching your blog anniversary - and for such a lovely generous giveaway.
