so I spoke to the supplier over the last couple days and the workshops are very new and the dates arn't quite there yet but they are going to put me on the wait list and let me know as soon as the dates are available.

Hey everyone
After doing a birthday party for 14 year old girls last night and a pedicure for my neighbours I have a sudden itch to get all my nail stuf out again and have a play.
