lol Tell me about it, but he is worth it and he is very difficult to buy for, he said last year I did extremely well and got him everything he liked so I just hope this year he is happy again although I am sure he will be

Not as full as it was lol ... I already got rid of a double bed on freecycle which was collected last night ... Just need to keep going now so that we can move the office downstairs and build a wall to seperate it all then I can make a start on my princess having her own bedroom


I guess that is the joy when you move in with someone who already has his own house and furniture ... you should have seen alll of the stuff I got rid of on freecycle before I moved

Afraid so, last year I spent £400 :eek::eek: but limited myself to £200 max this year although £30 of that was from the children. So far I have booked his CBT course (motorbike test) bought him a sphering experience day, the marmite hamper and loads of little stocking fillers. Oh and 4 bottles of beer

oh sweet jesus, only just read this after a long day at work and CBT cours def required a second look (is a specific type of fetish, dont know if anyone is aware) and I was soooo confused lol
brightened up my day

:rotfl: Dare I ask how you knew

I had to google that on myself ... I will do that kind of CBT if he doesn't like his presents

lol, was in a magazine called bizarre that I read hehe!

not something I am into (not in a nice way anyway lol, just if hampers go unappreciated)

Can I pick a few of your brains??

I'm doing a caravaning hamper for my dad and stepmum, so far i have

Caravaning guide 2009
Bottle of champers
Newcastle brown ale for dad
Retro sweet box
Slipper socks for both
Biscuits

Thats as far as I have got, what else can I add as I want to put a few more bits in? they arent into smellies or anything like that.

I was thinking of a dvd game, can anyone reccomend one...plus anything else you think might be appropriate to add?

Wow you girls have been extremely happy!

Rusty! I have a bath gel body lotion set with 5 of each , so they will be broken up into the hampers , better then binning them lol! Also goot work on your garage! Looks great!

Regards too the caravan hamper - Cross words books and pens , thermost? coffee..tea..how about those things that cover your eyes , because when they wake up in the van it will be light real early so they can get to sleep easier! Emergancy charger? Hope those ideas come in handy!

My cellophane and ribbon will be here tomorrow!
Question - How many medium sized hampers will 20meters of cellophane roughly do ? Thank you!

great ideas all of you, only dipping in now and again when time permits, doing hampers for the first time this year and its a fab idea, hope everyone likes them, certainly no harm in recycling own gifts or charity shop buys doing this myself!
