Next weekend we have got to go (although neither of us want to, irish catholic rules reign!!):

Saturday: (wait for it!!) wedding of husbands, brothers, girlfriends, sisters wedding. So it is my sister in laws sisters wedding. She has no list. I was thinking a nice photo frame. Any ideas on where I can buy a nice one online, if i go quidco for it it would be even better!

Sunday: husbands cousins daughters christening. She will be six or seven now so must be doing it to get her into catholic school. What do you get a big girl for a christening?

Thanks in advance, any items I can buy online for very little money please :money:
