    Good luck with the wrapping you two.........I had to use insulation tape one year as I lost the sellotape too:rolleyes:

    I had a bit of a panic earlier as I couldnt find an Xbox game that I bought for my lil bro but found it after much searching.

    I have arount 20 presents still to wrap:eek: they will have to wait until tomorrow now as i am going to watch a film with OH.

    Even thought we know its coming its always a mad rush in the end every year without fail.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    nah, nah, nah, nah - I'm finished! Funnily enough I lost a Fifa game but luckily it was in the wardrobe.

    Enjoy the film Louise.

    Beanie, if you were closer I'd nip round with some!

    Thanks Lula, have you not noticed most of them are fairly fun or easy though! Don't want to stress myself out too much...
