Hello!<\/p>\n

So, April is just around the corner which means the days are getting longer and the weather warmer too… lovely!<\/p>\n

This winter feels like it has really dragged on. We\u2019ve had some lovely mild days of late, though, and long may they continue. Whilst doing a spot of gardening I came across a mystery hole – about the size of a walnut! It\u2019s a part of the garden that my Cairns have been showing a lot of interest in – and now I know why. I trained a camera on the suspect area – and look who we met at 5am! I\u2019m not entirely sure if this is a mouse or rat? Any thoughts? Well, by the time you read this, hopefully we\u2019ve managed to humanely capture the little visitor! I think it\u2019s a mouse, but I\u2019m not too sure\u2026?<\/p>\n\"\"\n

So, that was one excitement of our week, the other excitement, not quite as entertaining. I was in the kitchen, holding my iPad (which by the way, technically isn\u2019t mine – it\u2019s QVC\u2019s) and it slipped from my hand; it was like seeing it happen in slow motion as it careered to the tiled floor… and well, you can see the result. Thankfully, it wasn\u2019t completely beyond repair. And one new screen later, it\u2019s back in working order. I\u2019ve assured the bosses I\u2019ll be extra careful from now on.<\/p>\n

So, looking ahead. As always if you get a chance, do check out our homepage<\/a> to stay up to date with the latest offers, Today’s Special Value<\/a> offers, and Big Deals<\/a>.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

Plus, there’s a TSV I\u2019m set to launch is this coming Tuesday 30th March at 9pm. Then again at midnight as we head into Wednesday. It\u2019s the brilliant, Ultrasun Sun Protection five-piece Kickstart Collection. It is available in three options. Glimmer<\/a>, Family<\/a> and Sport<\/a>. This brand is a firm favourite of so many of us, here at QVC, and of so many of our viewers too. In fact, this is the one brand I always ensure I have in stock at home, all year round.<\/p>\n

I hope you can join us for the 9pm launch and then again at midnight.<\/p>\n

Take care and see you soon… oh and do your best to not drop your tablet or smartphone!<\/p>\n
