PIR - would love to know what you think of that organic wine you bought? I had about 3 months pretty much only on organic & I swear it's less damaging/hangover inducing...not that means one should drink more, obviously
I'll let you know on Sunday!!!

I've just spent the most part of the morning reading 34 pages about snowman soup, I am now totally gutted that we are only in September and it's not time to make these yet for crimbo
For those of you into crimbo organisation 2009, what can I be getting on with now, making wise, which is not food orientated?
Jo my Darling preperation is the keyyou could start a search for suitable boxes for retro sweets, cello cones, you could be getting some flannel cakes ready and why not have ago at a flannel reindeer, well you know what I mean
. Oh and have you seen the perfect man? (Well I know we can all live in hope
). I did one for a single friend on valentines day with mug, choccies etc, going to do a couple for 2 more friends in their Christmas hamper. Oh since I found this site I have become inspired. Sadly I am unable to sew, I am allergic to it, but if you can you could check out Sock Monkeys :T Hope the bread making goes ok and I am sure you will crack it soon sweetheart, Hope your first day back at school goes ok. Big hugs and keep up all your good work. :T (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Fay I am so with you and the: Fairy Tale of New York. :T
It was Christmas Eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me, won't see another one
Its a great song but we should all be wary of drinking to excess and the damage it can do.
Ok now onto something nice and fluffy. Glad to hear you have been hampered inspired so to speakit is I feel very addictive and I am with Jo this year I want to have a go at some crafty bits. Though I fear they are much nicer in my head than the real thing that I will turn out. Hey ho it is the thought that counts

Oh and Dear Piglets christmas eve hamper will be just fab I am sure :T Big hugs and do take care. (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Forever Hopeful hope you start to feel better soon sweetheart, its a nightmare when you have things planned and then are unwell. Sometimes I think it is your body saying finally I can have a rest, it happens to me when I get time off work too. Also you have been under such alot of stress and that certainly won't have helped. Big hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Winebox you so make me smile you should do an online diary blog, it would be a top rater I am sure. Glad you stopped at just giving your neighbour the wine back :rotfl:But pants to DD's nits, I used to be so freaked out, I once made my: DH, DS, Mum, Dad and my elderley grandma treat their hair when there was only a hint of them. I learned after that this was not good practice :eek: I still laugh now at the look of horror on my Gran's face and the picture of her hair covered in the lotion. (She was not happy)But hey you are great and thats a mother's love for you: combing out the nits. Priceless. :A Hugs Hunny and it really is so lovely to have you on here. (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Nessa sweetheart: Have I read it right? Cliff in October :eek: This is by far above and beyond the call of duty for any friend :eek: Really .................. Though I did quite like his: Christmas song once: Daddys Home, think I was 17 at the time;) if I remember rightly

Just popping in to grin.....
ym you can pop me down for 2 AFD's thanks... sitting supping my cuppa with some dairy milk.....I did have a stroll on the treadmill earlier so I burnt off the calories then ate them...!
NITS... I had a nightmare with these with my DD over a few years of primary school....my dd chose the most scratchy head kiddie as best friend...! I ended up buying a super comb think it cost about £10.. but it worked a treat and never used nasty nit shampoo since... next time I go up the stairs I'll see if I can find out its name..
Hugs to those who want/need one.
