    I still go home and clean my mums oven and wrap all her pressies except for mine at christmas. You can always tell my pressies under the tree cos all the others look fab and mine look like the cat did it, not that we have a cat lol.

    Right I will get my diary out at home and schedule you all in.

    I do accept payment by way of snowman soup, cakes, cookies, muffins, and chocolate.

    Mel your cards are brilliant, have you thought of selling them? Clintons sell cards like for between £10-15:eek: . I think they are fab and I loved what you did with the sleigh.

    We should set up our own gift wrapping business. Everyone would use us cos we would make them look soooo good and all we could charge is treats for our tums :D

    LOL you make me laugh Shevs. I would go for that!! You know when you see the charity gift wrappers in town? I ALWAYS wanted to do that!! I used to think WOW are people crazy paying to have their presents wrapped?!

    Thanks so much for the compliment on my cards. I have never tried to sell them because I wouldn't even know where to start!

    Mel - cards are GORGE!! :) I sell my cards and do quite well (although xmas cards dont do too well)!!

    I'm going to try and get some pics of my scrapbook pages on my blog!

    We could have our gift wrapping shop as an extension to the grotto we're building for the orphans lol.

    I will clean the barnacles from your oven aswell. I know how I will charge a cake an hour xxxx

    GET THEM TUNES ON!! Cmon.

    You know last year all through christmas I was moaning because Id put my decs up too early and was sick to death of the christmas cd and then on boxing day I felt deflated it was over. I was so busy trying to get it all right I missed out. I realised.. Christmas costs too much and doesn't last long enough.. so why not enjoy and make the most of every single day you feel festive and really milk it.

    I thought the exact same thing Shev.. it will be so awesome.. we will be snowed under with all our bargains to give the orphans it will be BRILLIANT.. you do love bargain hunting too dontcha :D

    As for the oven.. I wouldn't do that to my worst enemy.. there is no cake big enough..
