    ishtar aren't you Witney way? There's a lovely Waitrose, can't you go there?

    We're about 18 miles south of Witney....good point, though, we've got a good Waitrose here, so might be worth going in there. Much better atmosphere to be honest!

    I'm feeling really Christmassy today - almost finished wrapping relatives presents, have marzipanned 2 cakes (one ours, one MIL's) and I'm just generally chilling. We're going through DD's haul of presents once she's gone to bed and will be wrapping them up tonight. DS is only 9 months, so we can wrap them in front of him....:p

    Hope everyone is having a good day?
    Take care
    D

  • My DD2 who is used to Waitrose, gets dead confused in tesco, she beams at people and they completely blank her. In Waitrose (ours is mainly families and the retired) everyone coo-coos her.

    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
