    Rainmac your card arrived this morning :D thankyou so much its lovely :ADid you hand deliver it or send it by magic elves? There was no stamp or postmark :confused: Well it is a magical time of year lol xx

    Rainmac I had a bit of a panic yesterday when I saw the counter on my blog saying 9 days to Christmas:eek: I was sure it was only last week it said 78 days :confused: It does seem to have come round all of a sudden.

    I have just been to the library to pick up a book I had ordered Kim Woodburns biography. I have read the first 2 chapters and its just as if she is reading it to me.... weird.... think it might be a tissue one. Then we called at Sainsburys for DH a fleece jumper they are only £7.50 and ok for in the house, so why did the bill come to £59 :confused: I only went on Monday and spent £43 :confused: Roll on when the shops shut :rotfl:

    Wifey have you heard anything yet? Its freezing cold and raining here today, and I have to go out again to the hairdresser and then again tonight to Weight Watchers :( Don't ask.....I might as well throw my money into the wind lol

    Ooops my M&S order has just arrived. I'd forgot about that, better go and hide it quick :)

    The wife I hope that you get good news about your flight soon, how awful having to wait about not knowing whats what.

    Im with flourgirl on this one .... i can remember yesterday my web site said 78 days too. Now i have too much to do as always and need 72 hours in every day to catch up.

    After middle DS having piggy flu last week, hes fine again. But i am full of cold. I went to bed last night at 9pm. Dont think ive done that since i was 10 :rotfl: I am happy to report though that i am sufferring in festive fashion, ( I have a super red nose :rotfl:)
    furrypig says:my name is Choccy and I am addicted to nose free stamps as I want to save them all and give them noses!!!:rotfl:

    Afternoony all!! :D

    I arrived safely (just) from bunbuns house!! DD was mesmerised by the naughty kittens and wouldn't leave them alone :rotfl:

    Flourgirl: You sound like me with the shops!! Let me know if the book is any good please? Don't think I will be getting any books for christmas which means I need to get the host by stephanie meyer cheap after christmas!

    TheWife - Any news yet?

    Choccy - Sorry I meant to txt you yesterday to say a big thankyou for my pressy and the parcel :) it arrived safely!!

    Padster - wow lucky you! I very nearly ordered the love anyas ... but then decided against it as I am skint ... maybe somewhere will have a sale on everything after christmas!

    I had an email from craftwork cards (did I miss the free postage or did they just not bother??) Anyway they have something new ... this I think it looks fab ;) what you think?

    Rusty – Beautiful card for your OH

    BunBun – hope you had a great birthday

    Flourgirl – how did you do at WW
