    MOTM I'm glad yesterday and today went well! :D I think 'fun' gifts for christmas, rather than anything personal. Also, maybe have a chat about it - she may be panicing now about the last minute extra 8 gifts she needs to buy.

    DS isn't helping at the moment. He's in a strange mood and his school bus has refused to bring him home this week.

    I think fun is good, but I think now that we are together seemingly, it's not going to matter anymore, especially with some of the comments tonight :o

    She's insisting on buying the girls things. I'll make sure she doesn't go OTT, but she's just happy at the moment and I feel mean trying to calm her down.

    Why has his school bus refused to bring him home?:confused: Sorry if already mentioned, didn't see it.
    these are the 2 hampers i made for zoe what you think? x

    Well, trying to see the wood for the trees in the photo and having to look upside down sideways, it looks like you have done a good job :T

    MOTM, what colour was the pashima, cos we are super shoppers here ;) And Lush shop is best place to get Lush but you may pass ou at the prices (I know I did! Was too tight to buy anything).

    Uhm...hi hugs hello! To all :D

    Mixed colours, mainly greens and sort of beiges. She likes pinks, reds and purples mainly. Closest I saw was a maroon and burgundy one. They were very thin though, but it said they were pashminas :confused:

    If I find out she likes Lush, she can have Lush. Money is okay at the moment and she can have what she wants (almost...)

    Course what I really want to ask, but my politeness filter is trying to block out is...


    have you had a bit yet MOTM?

    :rotfl:I was about to ask what you were talking about, but I can now see it in white after hitting the quote button.

    I'll tell you if you tell me how to do what you just did. Is it as simple as changing the text colour white?

    Night in a box...

    DVD
    Chocolates
    Microwave popcorn
    Fluffy socks or fleecy throw to snuggle up
    Strawberries (optional and added that night)
    Candles (optional again, depends on what the mood is to be)
    Bottle of wine real or fake
    Naughty treat if you want - massage oil, edible body paint, flavoured condoms :D

    Okay....thanks :)

    DVD - will find out what she would like
    Chocs - She likes white
    Can we sub popcorn for something else? She can have that, I find it too sicky
    I can get a nice fleecey throw
    Strawberries? With cream?
    Candles....adds to shopping list for tomorrow
    We don't have drink in the house and she doesn't like drink, so maybe some kind of spritzer?
    haha - after tonight, I think she may like that idea - although house full of kids, 16yo stays up late now she has no school, may be a no go

    Yes, just turn the text white

    And yes, fake wine. I don't drink so it's sloer or actually I prefer the tesco finest spritzers.

    Sub popcorn for anything, kettle chips or doritos or twiglets (if you swing that way) or you get the idea. Sweet, savoury and kinky ;)

    Seraching, I posted that jewellery making stuff today so you'll get it soon.

    I need to go to bed, have been tired all day because I had to squeeze in an hour of reading before bed.

    No, but as i'm pretty open and talk about anything, even with my girls, and she's comfortable with me, we have talked sex, vibrators and lots of naughty things ;):rolleyes: so if/when we do get more romantic/naughty, I want her to feel ultra special and good
    She's only ever had one partner though and she only did it with him because she felt she had too. She's shy.

    I'll see what she likes. Is this meant to be a surprise or can I arrange it with her?

    Bit cheaper back then? Or just more available?

    Faces are the best part of Christmas :)
