    Right peeps, I need some ideas please. Apart from OH who is getting money, dd2 and dd1 who I know what to get I need some ideas for

    - grandad ( not into anything,seriously.) Was thinking photo collage/
    - Nannie - into crafts (has mini hobbycraft in her workroom),painting, gardening and everything.
    - Aunty ( bit old fashioned) was thinking nice food hamper from M&S but need something else
    - Dad (the 79 yr old who doesn't want anything)

    If any of you have any ideas on what I could get them for xmas that would be great £10 - £20 max each

    Then I'm done !!!!

    :mad: :mad: :mad: not happy at all. Yesterday somebody put on one of my reviews i had taken it from somwhere else, i explained what had happened and sent her a message, as well as changing my review yet they have now suspended my account. My friend was at mine when i wrote the review so said i could post one she had written for a book we book read, i used it thinking no problems, and the stupid biatch has complained about me.

    Does it say anywhere you can't use friends reviews???? i have wrote an email to dooyoo explaining it, guess i just see what they come back with. I worked hard on my reviews, always around 350+ words, not just 150 like some folk on there. Its really not my day :rolleyes:

    oh !!!!!! Hayley, did your friend write the review herself or did she copy a bit? The complainer seems to think a bit has been copied from somewhere? I had a message from someone last week asking why I had only rated their review useful when everyone else had rated v useful. Get a grip!!

    I think if any part of the review has been written elsewhere by someone else they will block youfor it. If you've explained they might unblock you, hope they do

    hmm some difficult pressies you've got there yukki ! For nan what about some craft storage boxes? We sell loads of them at work or if she makes cards a big box of blank cards ? This isn't an advert as I only work there and have nothing to gain from it but we have a website https://www.craftydevilspapercraft.com and postage is only £1.99. Might find something for her!
