    Have had lovely day so far,
    Went to garden centre with DH and kids-had fun looking at the sheds, conservatories and Christmas stuff! Luckily, DH loves Christmas and agreed with me that we should 'update' the tree this year and make it more in keeping with the colour scheme we have in the living room-so chocolate/raspberry colured tree it will be-schniiiice

    then took the kids to McD's for lunch-was filled with 'Army Men' as my kids call them (right by a base) so that was nice ;) and then home. Then as a nice surprise, had 2 good mates pop by for a cuppa. Was lovely to see them.

    DH is on nights tonight so I will be ironing to XFactor/Arthur/You've been Framed etc. Actually looking forward to it! (sad, I know)

    Has a bit of a 'breakthrough' in McD's today-I must admit, Iwill normally wolf down a meal...today, I ate my fries, got half way thru my chicken sarnie and realised I was hungry so just stopped! Put down the sarnie, left it there. That has never happened before! Was quite please I must say...I love Paul McKenna :)

    I love Christmas stuff at garden centres, it all looks so nice with all the different 'looks'.

    I went to the big one on the edge of Poole (Haskins) with my mum and dad when they visited and could have bankrupted myself in there! I was sooooooooooo tempted to do a whole new 'scheme' with all the lovely natural wood stuff and the little birds in nests and squirrels but it would have cost a fortune! I spent £26 as it was which was a bit :eek: :o :eek: :o
