    Need to buy xmas cards this weekend - actually no! I'm getting them from M&S so I'll buy them on Thursday when it's 20% off day - Durrrrrrrr! Scratch that. I've got loads of wrapping to do but got no paper so I'll leave that till Thursday also then place it in the list somewhere after that, it's so annoying though cause I WANT to get it done.
    Are M&S doing another 20% day next Thursday then?

    Yes, Thursday 4th Dec and again the following Thursday, by all accounts :)

    Awwww I've missed the HHC :(:D Actually, I was busy bringing my frozen washing in out the garden, teenie put away the lawn mower in the shed and we've had a bit tidy up out there, so I was busy.
    I'm tempted to just let the washing thaw out instead of washing it again. Is that bad :D

    That should be my macaw too Dusty I'm terrible for hoarding unnecessary emails.

    K, I've paid my rent online, sorted teenie out and DD1's been round so gave her some money to get a few bits from the Metro Centre for me cause that's where she's going, another pressie done. She's got a date tonight, she met him at the party she was at last night and he's a Fireman in the Air Force *swoon* hope she doesn't get bored of this one like she has the others :rolleyes:

    Tidied my living room and opened the window in there, for some reason it was stinking and not sure why :confused: I've got stuff to take upstairs now which [STRIKE]will get dumped[/STRIKE] carefully put away in my room. Need to get the hoover out.
  • Morning all

    happy birthday summermoon :bdaycake:

    you're making me feel dead guilty cause I don't do most of my Xmas shopping til about the 2nd week in Dec - me and DH take a day off together and hit Merry Hill and try and do it all in a few hours

    Have made up my mind what I'll do for the lot at work - M+S have got some lovely glasses for 50p each (stocked up on last weeks 20% off day), put red and green tissue paper inside and fill with lindor chocs nomnomnom - job done for about £1.20 each - will also do as stocking fillers for rellies

    Now I've scarfed brekkie will go and put up the first 2 Xmas trees while watching Love Actually, Good Life Xmas special and While You Were Sleeping.

    Lil_me - thanks for the link - I've had a read through and I've checked everything they say - think something must be cracked where I can't get at it as the water is getting somewhere it shouldn't - i'll let DH have a faff before I go and get a new one

    Have a great day all
