SOoooooooooooooooooooooo exciting!!!

By the way, is everyone aware that Amazon are not sending their deliveries with Royal Mail at the moment?? Good with regards to the upcoming strikes! PLUS, just had an email from them saying that there's no longer a minimum order required for the Super Saver Free Delivery!! About time too!! lol

Just thought I'd share!!

There brilliant links -thank you.

had a quick peep at the BBC one, and they've got Victorian Christmas, I can highly recommend it, they've got the original series on repeat on BBC2, called Victorian Farm, its based on a farm at Acton Scottt in Shropshire, brilliant series. Def worth watching xx

I do the same too Clare. I sit and look thru the mag and put a big star next to everything i want to watch / record! Love it



I am the same too. I am not into Halloween too much either. I do my kids a tea party and decorate the front room and get them all dressed into costumes but much prefer firework night and of course Crimbo :T


I did ok today. I got my children P.j's and christmas slipper sock for their Christmas hamper from Primark today. I also managed to get from Primakr my 9 yr dd 4 pairs of jean for £2 - £3 a pair off The sale rail and 2 pairs for my 6 yr old dd too! :T Got some gloves and hats for my christmas shoe boxes for charity too.

I cut my shopping trip short as my 18 month old was really grumpy. She also pulled about 20 tops off their hangers in Primark 1 minute they were all hung up nice next there was a empty rail and my dd was covered in tops! She must of grabbed whole wedge of them and pulled! :eek: Not funny!

Will pop out tomorrow again and try get some more bits.

Woops, but u were flavour of the month!! xx

massive thank you, just ordered my Baileys, plz DD, when we were in Tunisia at Easter, they were sampling the Coffee Baileys in the duty-free shop, they offered her a sample, but I wouldn't let, it was half a glass full, so she tried mine, she loved it, its a lot nicer than the mint one, bit like a weaker tia maria, but GORGEOUS XX

www.95pence.com

I ordered from this site and I can highly recommend it, placed the order Monday night, and the parcel was delievered today by DHL.

In all honestly, avoid the scarf, looks a bit tacky, (but then 95p), I got a good mix and match selection.

Kitchen scales - There really kitch, I got them for dd, do her a little cookery hamper, she loves cooking, there about 6in high, weigh upto 1lb, the colours do vary, (ordered 1 for joke for mates xmas), got blue + red.

Best bargain, got Bailey, leather collar (95p), similar to the ones we were looking at in Pets shop they were about £5.00

There great stocking fillers, xx
