thanks mary... just get upset so easily by some things- can easily misread a tone as well I find.
thankfully don't get that problem here woo.
Am off to see harry potter this afternoon, hope its better than reported so far!
Am will then get into some crafting... maybe

Hope you have loads of fun watching harry potter later, don't worry about what people post, there are some people on many forums and threads who think they know everything and are wuick to jump down on other people... without thinking about what they are saying.

Happy crafting hun.

harry potter was weird , good because i know the book sinside out, but u couldnt watch it if you hadnt seen the other films/read the books.

they changed somethings, some ppl werent in it as much as i would have hoped and some bits were rushed, but its a bl00dy long book! made me laugh lots and was serious at other times. acting was better too!

Received my cello cones today that I got off ebay for my snowman soup - they are actually wrapped in brown paper in the shape that they are which has tickled me for some reason

I am thinking of getting the hot choc, choc chips, marshmallows, candy canes as I go along as maybe I might get them on offer, can anyone recommend any specific makes? I havn't made them before, but am thinking they will be good as gifts for siblings and teachers gifts...

98jdougle, ignore those silly people on that thread, its a shame when these things happen as it puts genuine posters off from sharing their ideas...you just stick around here with this lovely bunch

Yes I did, I used home bargains, Aldi, lidl, netto's and asda for all different ones .... It worked out around 89p-£1 per bottle on average but he was worth it and I just slipped one or 2 in with the shopping so it spread the cost.

Don't think I'll try this with my OH - he'll just have 24 beers the first night then none the rest of December :rotfl:

lol, may add a couple into oh's box but not do them all beer- he isnt a giant beer drinker anyway.
Going to wrap up a big box and have it into a lucky dip thing.
