    popkins - I love them both but especially the just married one! Those towels are gorgeous! Can you get them without just married on? I've not seen any pink ones like that - they'd go lovely in my bathroom!!! Well ok they wouldnt exactly go but I'd like to have them lol!!

    jojo - I agree I think cream would go better too

    I've seen a towel bale in fuscia pink and black in Asda in Doncaster. (Don't know if they have them in other branches) Reduced from £9 to £5. 2 bath towels, 2 hand towels and 2 flannels - 1 of each colour. Looked lovely. All wrapped in black ribbon. The pink and black looked really well together.

    Has anyone seen any plain white or red blankets anywhere? I have a Christmas nappy cake to go abroad next week. I have managed everything else but I can't find any plain blankets.

    Thanks

    I bought plain red and plain cream blankets (fleeces) the other day from Tesco - value section £2 and they are quite big and lovely and soft :)
