    picked up my boots order today, so thats my dad done, and tom's igglepiggle toothbrush - i have never known anyone so excited to do their teeth he loves it. and got his annual a peppa pig one of the book people site with free postage, now just his laptop to get, and then that is it no more for him, well apart from his x-mas personalized book, and still waiting on my voucher from ipoints so i can get mum and dads satnav really cant wait to see their faces when they open it.
    i know it was a couple of pages ago now but the photos thing, i have pics of tom and my god-daughter up, and also ex's nephews which i think need to come out as dont have anything to do with them any more, they are only in my photo clock but then its getting other pics to go in there. i think it also depends on the person, tom's first x-mas i had had proffesional pics taken of him a month before and for family and godparents gave them a picture in a frame, and they were all well chuffed with them.

    I've just been reading the notonthehighstreet.com gift guide, and now I am worrying that I'm really tight! Everything in there is gorgeous, but it all seems soooo expensive, and althrough I saw lots of things I know people would love, I cant bring myself to buy them, as I know that most of you (but sadly probably not me as rubbish at crafts) could make these items just as nice for a fraction of the price.
    I dont know how to post pictures, and it wont let me post links, but these are just a few of the item's codes-
    69081 Print in a frame for £40!!!!!
    28006 bauble £7.50 each
    68610 pack of 10 gift tags £5 might actually try make these!!)
    67777 pack of 10 gift tags £9

    Am I really tight for not wanting to pay these prices?? xx

    45840 christmas choclate pizza £22

    Everything is so gorgeous but i just cant bring myself to spend £39 on 16 little biscuits!

    OHH lovvely site. But no - I wouldn't pay those prices either. BUT have happily borrowed some of their ideas for tags and off to poundland at dinner to get the stuff to make 100 for the cost of about 6. :j

    hlcarroll - why not look around for the same sort of things but cheaper prices.
    just been on egmont to order tom's book and personalized books have free delivery, also on the special offers page they have some good deals:
