Hi is everyone making their own photo calenders? If so how do you make them
thanks in advance

I bought some Ready done Photo Calanders out of the local Pound World. You get the Square calander with month by month page and 12 x 6"4 photo Papers.

Just Print the Photo's out and slide them into Each Month.

Not tried them yet so don't know what they will turn out like. But will be trying them over the next few weeks now the kids are back to school :j

Well got my Christmas cards by chance today.

Was in my local Roseby's and they had 4 packs of cards for £1. Thats me sorted as I got 4 packs of eight, plus I have loads of spares from years gone past that I want to use up too.

They are brill, you should be really proud of yourself. I will be going to Primark and having a try at some of those for the family!

Its a bit off topic - so apologies in advance - could be a xmas saving.

Tesco have brought out a catalogue ((keeping up with Argos, makes a change from keeping up with the Jones!) the catalogues free), but if you get it scanned through the checkout it gives you a £5.00 off a £20 spend, can order on line or instore.

I am going to do some wrapping later on.

I cleaned my apartment today - there were dust bunnies the size of my fist lurking under my desk! Summer clothes went into hibernation, I wish I could follow them.

It was all set to be a sleepy sort of day, but I organised to buy some second hand books and the maniac seller rang me at 9:30 to ask if she could bring them at 11. I had to walk to the station to buy milk to get change to give her, as theirs is the only shop that's open on Sundays, and by the time I got home I was freezing cold and wide awake.

Got some teachers whisky chocs today in morrisons for £2.09 buy one get one free so they will be extra bits for brother and dad, and got a hammer toy that lights up and makes noises when you hit with it in mothercare reduced from 5.99 to 2.99 for my 5 week old, so they will all go in the box for Christmas! And I have listed them in my notebook!
