I'm the Big Brother
I have another new design coming out soon for the soon to be big brother t-shirts. As you all seem to be loving the long sleeve Humbugz I am bringing in a new design to give you more choice and I hope you love them just as much as I do. Remember, that you can have them personalised free of charge if you wish. As the weather seems to have taken a change for the better I hope to have them on the website by Monday, fingers crossed!
Printed personalised t-shirts seem to be the order of the day at the moment so I'm off to fulfill your orders to get them off to you.
Take care and have fun.

Halloween!
I do have a few designs for Halloween t-shirts but have been far too busy with other personalised orders to get any on the website. If you have your own design for Halloween, or you have an idea of what you are looking for, then just contact me and let me know and I can print or make up your design for you.
New Arrival!
Yes, the newly designed satin gift bags are now photographed and on the website. As previously, the satin gift bags are handmade bymyself but now I am attaching the appropriate age gift card for you. I have others in stock so you will not necessarily receive the one in the photograph. So now, all you have to do when you receive your order is write your message on the card and enjoy all the smiles when you give your gift to your special little person.
New Satin Gift Bags
I shall be launching our new satin gift bags very shortly. I am really excited about them as they will give you the opportunity to reuse them as you wish, although as they are I think you can anyway. The new photographs will be on the home page by Monday. I am sure you will love them and they will be great for you and the recipient of your t-shirt gift, be they young or old.
Once again, I would like to take this opportunity of thanking you, my customers for purchasing from me and the very kind words that you send me via emails and letters for my testimonial page. Thank you, I do appreciate you.
Take care and have fun.

COMPETITION TIME!
I hope you are all well and enjoying the summer holidays. Obviously I am using the term 'summer' in a very loose manner... where did it go? Or, where is it to be more precise? I swear we used to always have heatwaves in August... when I was a kid LOL!
Well, as August draws to a close I am now making arrangements for Retired Sergeant, Rudi Lewis to draw the lucky winning ticket for the t-shirt signed by Michael Sheen. As the competition closes on the last day of August and you have not yet made an entry, you can do so here Good luck and thank you.
In the meantime, I would like, once again, to say thank you to all those that have entered and made a donation to the Healing the Wounds charity.
I'm off now to print some personalised t-shirt orders.
Take care and have fun.
Pauline
Wow! How lucky am I?
Well, I would say I am extremely lucky and you would no doubt agree. A very beautiful friend of mine, Amanda, gave me this wonderful gift for my 50th birthday...
A fantastic gift to receive but what makes it even more special is that my beautiful friend Amanda is the artist who painted it. Amanda Dagg is so talented and I already have one of her paintings that I commissioned from her for my 25th Wedding Anniversary as a gift to my husband. You do understand that I commissioned and paid for the painting as a gift to my husband but it is the painting I wanted and it's mine!!!! Obviously, I have not made that clear to him because he absolutely loves it too and thinks it was a fantastic anniversary present to him LOL!
The painting above hangs in our bathroom and it is wonderful to just lay in the bath and gaze out to sea and just drift off into a wonderful daydream. Sounds lovely doesn't it? I would certainly recommend it and Amanda's work.
You can see a catalogue of some of Amanda's art which is available from her website Amanda Dagg. By the way, she is totally self taught... truly amazing lady.
Yay! We had sun today:)
Hopefully summer has arrived. I love it when it is really hot, although if you are expecting at the moment I am sure you are finding the hot days and nights rather too uncomfortable.
Getting the children outside is a tad difficult for me. My children don't like it when it is too hot and prefer to go out into the garden of a evening, when I'm tired and would prefer to be winding down for the day!
We have a local playscheme in our village so hopefully they go to that and have some fun out in the fresh air.
Trips to the seaside should be in order very soon too. I do hope you are getting some rest and relaxation during the school holidays!!!!
I'm off to print some personalised orders as they seem to be flowing in thick and fast I am pleased to say.
So, take care and have fun.
Pauline
Something different for the school holidays...
So, it's time to think about what to do with the kids and maybe where to go for a short break during the school holidays. I have found the perfect place for you... Ty Draw Farm A 4 star B&B set in beautiful surroundings in Wales which also provides horse riding for all the family.
I took my 8 yr old daughter for there for her very first riding lesson yesterday. Natalie said she was "a little bit scared but mostly excited"
.
is run by a lovely lady, Annette, who also provides the horse riding lessons. I can tell you hand on heart that I highly recommend her. She was absolutely brilliant with Natalie spending time talking to her about the horse, Felix, that she was riding.
Annette is truly a professional with both her horses and the children who want to experience the fun of riding a horse.
If you are just looking for a relaxing day out, book the kids in for a riding lesson and take them afterwards for a relaxing picnic on the nearby countryside whilst they tell you all about the thrill of horse riding and maybe convince you that you too should have a go!
If it is too far to travel for a day out then why not book a few days B&B with a lesson for the whole family. Absolutely worth it for the fun, excitement, and the beautiful surrounding countryside with the fresh air that goes with it.
Go on... you know it will be fun. We are definitely going again.
Take care, have fun

OOOOOH! I came across this...
The site was actually recommended to me by a friend who's washing machine came to a sudden end! My own washing machine had done the same only a few weeks prior but as mine is a rather aged Hotpoint it is worth repairing as many moons ago they were built to last and fixing it was half the price of a new one:)
Appliances online was recommended to her by one of her friends and she purchased a washing machine from them and said they were definitely worth using. I have had a look at the site (much to my husband's dismay LOL!) and seen the new cooker that I have now put on my wishlist!
They also have competitions so you may be in with a chance of winning a white appliance if you are feeling lucky... certainly looks worth a visit given their prices etc.
Good luck
Pauline
HELLOOOOO!
Oh, it has been ages since I have blogged! I have been so busy, but it has been fun. I love being busy printing your t-shirts. I do wish I could keep up with all the designs and take photographs to put on the website but sadly I just don't have the time.
I have taken a photograph of all the satin bags I now have. As an update, I now have Royal Blue satin bags for the older boys and the black big brother t-shirts. Oooh, I have just remembered I have some new testimonials to put on the website!
This week I am hoping to take a photograph of the new Big Brother design I have made. Also new in are the long sleeve Humbugz t-shirts/tops. So you will be seeing them on the website this week.
If you require personalised big brother or big sister t shirts just contact me either via my email address or the website contact form.
Right, I'm off to get the satin bags photo on the website along with the testimonials... whilst I have the time.
Take care and have fun.

DRAGON ARTS DANCE AND THEATRE SCHOOL
Well, I can honestly say I am really proud. Having received an order and printed t-shirts for the Dragon Arts Dance and Theatre School in Port Talbot, I took my children along to the Princess Royal Theatre in Port Talbot to see two of the groups in a competition.
Now, I have sold one of my printed t-shirts to someone in Hollywood. I have one of my printed t-shirts signed by award winning actor Michael Sheen OBE (see previous blogs below for your chance to win it), but I can honestly say, seeing the Dragon Arts Dance wearing my t-shirts and dancing on stage is my proudest moment to date... they were, and are, absolutely fantastic. The young people made me extremely proud and their Director, Gareth, told me how proud he was of them and it showed in his face too. Well done Dragon Arts Dance and Theatre School.
Fair Swap?!
So, here is how it came about that I have one of my printed t-shirts signed by Hollywood actor Michael Sheen OBE ...
Being a member of Recycle (Neath) I received a copy of an email sent out by the Assistant Stage Manager asking for white/pale green sheets. He mentioned in the email that he was involved in The Passion Play with Michael Sheen.
I can honestly tell you that I had just had a sort out of my loft and had white and pale green bedsheets which had been stored in our loft for 3 years!!!! I was just about to put them out to be recycled... why I still had them I have no idea. So, I guessed if 'namedropping' was going on I would... google:)
Wow! I did not know the name but I know of the films he appeared in, well some of them! Blair and The Queen to name only two. Both of which I have not seen... yet.
I replied to the Asst Stage Manager and offered my bedsheets, if they were of any use to Michael Sheen! They may possibly have been, I have no idea really if they were used in the play. The Assistant Stage Manager did come and collect them and it was then that I asked him if he would ask Michael Sheen to sign the t shirt and that I would 'raffle' it to raise funds for the Healing the Wounds charity of which Michael Sheen is a Patron... Google is so good isn't it, haha.
Within the week I had an email back saying that Michael Sheen had signed the t shirt for us. Yay!... Let the fundraising begin.
The Passion - Michael Sheen
Absolutely fantastic! Myself and the family went to see Part 3 of The Passion in Port Talbot yesterday. It was amazing to see such a major event take place.
How Michael Sheen managed to carry that cross through the streets of Port Talbot will never cease to amaze me. Not only was the weather beautiful, extremely hot, but he was dressed in boots, jeans and a fleece type jacket! Being surrounded by so many people must, in some ways made it difficult but I imagine it also helped him to get through any 'walls' that he may have come up against. Absolutely amazing stamina.
Whilst there we also raised £46.00 towards our competition for the t-shirt that Michael Sheen signed in order for us to raise funds for Healing the Wounds a charity of which he is a patron. Healing the Wounds is a charity set up to support members of our Armed Forces who are suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. We plan on raising £2,000 so please, donate £1 here to be in with a chance of winning the signed t shirt and a personalised printed t shirt... Every little helps! We truly appreciate your help.
Thank you so much.
Pauline
FUNDRAISING COMPETITION OFFICIALLY LAUNCHED
Yay! We now have our first fundraising competition launched. You can enter here Chance to Win a T-Shirt signed by Award winning actor Michael Sheen OBE Please help me to raise the £2,000 needed to help our Armed Forces personnel suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. For only £1 you will be entered into the draw and have the chance of winning the signed t-shirt along with a personalised printed t shirt. Runner up will receive an adult printed t shirt from those listed on our website.
Good luck and thank you so much

UPDATE ON FUNDRAISING COMPETITION
Just to update you all on the fundraising competition that it is on it's way to launch! At the moment the charity is registering with Virginmoney so the last bit of paperwork is on it's way to them and I am told as soon as they are in receipt of that it will only take 15 minutes to get them registered and I can set up the fundraising page.
The charity informed me that the reason they are using Virginmoney is because the charity only have to make a one off payment and then ALL fundraising monies are donated to the charity. Whereas with Justgiving fundraising 5% of fundraising money is taken as a commission. So the difference is... Virginmoney is non-profiting making and Justgiving is an actual business. I did not realise this until now!
So hopefully everything will be sorted out within the next couple of days. I will keep you posted.
Take care and have fun.
Pauline
FUNDRAISING COMPETITION FOR SPECIAL PEOPLE WITH SPECIAL PRIZE
I am presently organising a fundraising event for some very special people with a special prize. Hope to have everything set up in the next couple of days, together with a photograph of the winning prize. So, do keep coming back to see how you can help and what you can win:)
I have also been busy with a few new requested personalised German Shepherd design t-shirts. I am so happy with the latest one although it really took some doing! I now feel I can take anything on:)
So feel free to contact me with any pet t-shirts you require.
Must dash and get some more work done for the fundraising.
Take care and have fun.
Pauline
New In!
Again, it's been really busy here at TeesOnLine.co.uk and I would first of all like to thank my customers who have sent me some lovely thank you's for their t-shirts. It is an absolute delight receiving them so... thank you so much.
New In... we have our Welsh Flag satin gift bags which I am really pleased with. Above the Welsh Dragon the words 'I rwyn abennig' meaning 'For Someone Special' which I will send with every t-shirt purchased from an address in Wales. Obviously, if you are Welsh and living outside of Wales and would like your satin bag in Welsh then please just let me know.
Also, new in are our German Shepherd t-shirt designs. Every design has been specifically requested by one of my special customers. If you would like a t-shirt with printed with your own dog or any other pet then feel free to contact me via the website as all designs can be personalized to your own requirements.
So, what's next... oh yes, I have some more personalized designs to complete and I will get on the the new I'm the Big Brother designs, I will, I will.
Must dash.
Take care and have fun.
Pauline
JUGGLING?!
I'm certain you have been... juggling! It's amazing sometimes how many things we can juggle all at once and still stay sane. OK, maybe I have not stayed sane but I have been having fun going mad haha.
Having made some new satin bags with a new design on I have also been busy printing a few large orders which have been great fun to do and I hope my customers enjoy their evening when they wear them. I'm being a bit secretive here at the moment as I have to be, but in a couple of weeks I will be able to spill the beans, so to speak!
Well, one thing I will not be throwing into the air tonight is... pancakes! In February a friend of mine told me she had made pancakes.
Haha, she thought it was pancake day. I gently informed her it was not and how fab that she could make them again in March. Lo and behold, it's pancake day today and I did not realise!!! No, I am not making them as I have spent the afternoon teaching my 13 yr old son Home Economics. He has made a Dundee cake, which we shall be testing shortly, and he cooked sausage and mash which we have eaten and was gorgeous. Whilst going through the 'dishing up' procedure (everything is so simple when we just do it, yet seems a major issue when a child is doing it at their pace rather than our's!) anyhow, dishing up and the phone rings, tis hubby. I tell him what we are doing and ... all is well and back to darling son. Phone rings again!!! Darling hubby says "just a quickie... are you not making pancakes today then?" Haha, the words "love you too" did not spring to mind.
We are now in discussion on who is washing up... wish me luck as you may already know negotiating with a 13 yr old could be a no-win situation for mum!
Yes, I was juggling this blog too... the Dundee Cake was deeeeelicious.
Take care and have fun
Pauline
Big Brother t shirts
I am sorry that we are presently out of stock of the Humbugz Navy & White big brother t shirts... there was a sudden high demand for them! So, thank you to all the customers who obviously told their friends and family about me and my t shirts:) Hopefully I will have more in stock very soon but in the meantime, we do have the Organic big brother t shirts which are also made by Mantis and are a superb quality and my unbelieveably low price.
At the moment I am busy with private, personalised printed t shirt orders but I should be able to catch up and print up more of the Humbugz in the next week or so.
FREE Satin Gift Bags in 3 Colours
I now have my satin gift bags in pink, white and baby blue. Every t shirt you purchase is placed in it's own printed satin presentation bag, so if you buy 3 t shirts you receive 3 satin presentation gift bags!
At the moment I am extremely busy with printing t shirt orders but again, I will be bringing in other colour bags to match different t shirts... purple satin gift bags for Tarot T-Shirts... maybe!
New In - Satin Gift Bags - FREE
I absolutely love my new satin gift bags. Handmade and printed 'For Someone Special' what a wonderful presentation gift bag. Whilst stocks last every t shirt will be individually wrapped in tissue paper and placed inside it's own presentation gift bag. So yes, every t shirt you buy will have it's own bag. If you buy three t shirts you will receive 3 satin gift bags. If your t shirt is a gift... you have it all wrapped up! If the t shirt is for you, it's still 'For Someone Special' but you can use the bag when you next give a gift.
More colours coming soon!
HELP BRING DOWN THE PRICE OF PETROL IN THE UK
Please see what you think and pass it on if you agree with it.
We are hitting £1.29 a litre in some areas now and soon we will be faced with paying £1.50 per litre.
So this idea has been offered:
This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the 'don't buy petrol on a certain day campaign' that was going around last April or May! The oil companies just laughed at that because they knew we wouldn't continue to hurt ourselves by refusing to buy petrol. It was more of an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them. BUT, whoever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can really work.
Please read it and join in!
Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a litre is CHEAP, we need to take aggressive action to teach them that BUYERS - not sellers control the market place. With the price of petrol going up more each day, we consumers need to take action. The only way we are going to see the price of petrol come down is if we hit someone in the pocket by not purchasing their petrol! And we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves. Here's the idea:
For the rest of this year DON'T purchase ANY petrol from the two biggest oil companies (which now are one) i.e. ESSO and BP.
If they are not selling any petrol, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If they reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit. But to have an impact we need to reach literally millions of Esso and BP petrol buyers. It's really simple to do!!
Now, don't wimp out on me at this point... keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!!
I am blogging this note to a lot of people. If all of you send it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300)....and those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000) .... and so on. By the time the message reaches the sixth generation of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION consumers! If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted! If it goes one level further, you guessed it......
THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!
Again, all YOU have to do is send this to 10 people. That's all (and not buy at ESSO/BP). How long would all that take? If each of us sends this out to ten more people within one day of receipt, all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be contacted within the next 8 days!!! Acting together we can make a difference. If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on.
PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES It's easy to make this happen. Just forward this, think ahead of each fill up and buy your petrol at Shell,Asda,Tesco, Sainsburys, Morrisons, Jet etc. i.e. Boycott BP and Esso
Fancy a Swagbuck?
What's a Swagbuck? I hear you ask. A Swagbuck is basically points for doing what you already do... searching the internet. Swagbucks
A friend of mine told me about Swagbucks. Now, I am not normally too keen on downloading anything to my computer but I totally trust her and she never tells me about anything until she has tried and tested it for sometime herself. It is so easy!
All I had to do was register my details (so they can pay me my $$$$), download the toolbar and that was it! Whenever I search for anything on the internet I just type what I want into the search, press 'Go Win' and whenever it feels like it it gives me Swagbucks.... whooohooo! The Swagbucks can then, at the appropriate amount be converted into $$$$, £££££, Amazon vouchers etc etc, all for doing what I already do... searching on the internet. Plus they have many other ways of earning them such as watching tv/video clips, reading special offers etc etc. You can pick and choose or just search.
You can download it to all your computers too. Now, and it took me a while to get around to doing it, purely because I thought it would be technical... it is not, again it was so easy. Just log into your existing account (you can only have one per address) then download the toolbar on to each of your computers or laptops and again, surf away and earn Swagbucks. It's great because the kids can earn me Swagbucks too when they are searching for stuff. When I am ready I just request my $$$$/£££££ to be paid into my Paypal account.
Take care and have fun!

Welcome to TeesOnLine.co.uk Blog for 2011
I hope you all had a fantastic time seeing in the New Year. This year, for the first time, both my children stayed up to see in the New Year, London, England, celebrations and firework on the TV. I must say, it made my New Year extra special. The firework display on the London Eye was the best I have ever seen them... so far!
Myself, hubby and two children stayed up until 1.30 a.m. and then watched half hour of Tom and Jerry cartoons until bed at 2.00 a.m. Why did we watch Tom and Jerry cartoons?... because the children wanted to and it was fun! Thankfully we were all able to sleep in until late the next day. I'm glad we did it because it will be the first memory the children really have of New Year's Eve and it will always be special to them, it certainly will be for me.
To all parents who had a new baby... Congratulations. Remember, you will get more sleep, eventually!
This year I will do my best to find you lots of freebies for you, baby and children and lots of appropriate articles and websites where you will find appropriate advice and opinions to help you through the many years of decisions you make for you and your family.
The most important thing to remember is... Life is supposed to be Fun!
