Out of the goodness of my heart, I'm willing to give them a shelter. I'll even do it for free! (I can't believe I'm the first to answer this! )
Do you mean your personal smurfs or the shop?

Yes yes...think of the starving smurfers living down in Australia without enough smurfs to feed their habits....I will even trade you something for them all. I will give you spare space in exchange for the smurfs....sounds pretty fair to me.

I'm sure if there's any left I can squeeze them in here, somewhere!

No no no: The best place for them is in a Dragon's cave: That is quite obvious: they'll be well guarded! (And Smurfs do not react well to hot countries: they much prefer dry and cool conditions)
Did I also mention that I have cured my sneezing problem? well at least until the grass pollen starts... but I am careful not to burn anything now, since Eggie wacked me on the head after her fins turned to a crispy golden brown.
Now, I have lots of space left, so the quantity is up to you. The more the better of course....

Hi Karen
Is everything ok?
Are you selling tons of stuff meaning that you are spending all day packing? It would seem a shame if you stopped your business as you are known as a quality smurf dealer who can be trusted and relied upon. I know this side of things also causes stress and is very time consuming too. I just hope you are ok on a business level, private level and of course a mental level.....eventually

Karen,
Having bought from you before and appreciate your knowledge and honesty...please don't stop.
I, being the benevelent person that I am, would be willing to give those added smurfs a new home in the US and have contacted the State Department about citizenship for them. Just say the word. LOL.

I think I was having a particularly bad day yesterday. I am going to cut down on some of the other products I started selling, like Snoopy and Marsupilami I won't reorder. It is basically because I have become a victim of my own success, I am too busy to have a life at the moment. I want to be posting here more and I just don't get the time to post, I used to at least read everything but this week I haven't been able to read every post either.
Kitty starts school in September so I should have a lot more time then, so I just need to muddle through the summer and then hopefully it will all come good.

I'm glad it was just a one off bad day Karen..I'd hate to think that the only UK supplier of smurfs was about to quit
I know I haven't ordered much from you in the past, but when I get some compensation for an accident I had 3 years ago, I will be at your shop door with my wanted list
Hope you get some time to yourself soon

Glad to hear it was just a bad day Karen
I guess with your shop being so busy it goes to show you are good at what you do.
I do feel for you though, your a busy Mum and have a business to run as well as the forum. It must be very stressful for you at times.
Please don't close your business Karen The World Needs You
Wow, is Kitty going to school already? I thought she was turning 4 this year. My daughter is turning 5 in August and starts school in October.
You must start school earlier in the UK ?

Raelene..
wow, your school starts in october

Ours starts the last week in August and runs until two weeks into June, with a summer school in between.
Karen,
don't give up your business completly, There are already not enough good smurf shops out there, I would hate to see one get cut. Lock the kids out and take a nice long bubble bath that should work for a bit.

Hi Gerda
School in Australia starts last week of January and is broken up into 4 terms of around 9 -11 weeks with 2 weeks holiday in between each term. School year finishes mid December.
My daughter is starting in October as they have to be 5 to start school. So she goes to Kindergaten now though.

Kitty is 4 in August. If she was 4 in September then she would have started the year after.
I am just shattered at the moment. I have another job which is for 20 hours a week, then there is the shop and then there is my life. I think I need to get some early nights because I am just miserable and tired.
