    You're only away for half the day most of it will be at home, no reason to be nervous :)

    Thanks Dinah, I'm only really nervy because I keep on thinking 'What if they don't want me there?!' We don't go over to OHs very often (OHs fault mind, I'd love to spend more time with his family!) so feel like I'm intruding a bit.

    They wouldn't have invited you if they didn't want you there.

    All this christmas talk has got me looking on the boots website at the 3 for 2 gift packs. Seen a lovely no 7 one for my mum. She loves no 7 so i think i will get her that, and im going to make her a galaxy chocolate hamper because its her favourite.

    I know i feel all christmassy aswell now. I have just seen a no7 mens set aswell which would be really good for OHs sensitive skin, its half price until thursday and i dont know whether to get it him or not. If hes prompted to use these things he will use them but i dont want it going to waste. Decisions decisions decisions

  • That's one of the things I've just bought - Grandma wanted to know what aftershave OH likes to get him it for Christmas but he likes all the expensive ones so I suggested that instead - it's a bargain if he'll use the stuff Flower. The No7 vouchers don't work for it though - the spoilsports!

    Thats the thing he will use it if i remind him and its really good for his skin because it is so sensitive, and your right it is such a bargain. I think i probably will get it and try hide it somewhere he wont get his mitts on it.

    I will start christmas shopping after my birthday as a) I have little money right now and b) I am too excited about my birthday haha.

    This is the first year I won't have christmas dinner with my family. OH is staying at my Mum and Dads christmas eve and we are going to open presents there and then go for christmas dinner at his sisters where all his family will be. I decided it was about time we ate christmas dinner together. I wasworried my Mum would be offended but she is happy we will be there in the morning and we can eat at theirs next year.

    Oh and good news we just got a big box of perfumes delivered from one of our clients so hopefully will get a bottle or two. Useful as I was running out of perfume.
