Whenever i've picked stuff up from Tesco it's been inside a cardboard box. If not they'll probably double bag it.

Morning ladies,

'Good King Wenceslas looked out
On the feast of Stephen
When the snow lay round about
Deep and crisp and even
Brightly shone the moon that night
Though the frost was cruel
When a poor man came in sight
Gath'ring winter fuel

"Hither, page, and stand by me
If thou know'st it, telling
Yonder peasant, who is he?
Where and what his dwelling?"
"Sire, he lives a good league hence
Underneath the mountain
Right against the forest fence
By Saint Agnes' fountain.'

Jinkypinks -
LadyL - Hope we can catch up soon

Rosepink - Well done on the extra sale, that is fab!
Triker - big hugs honey
Toochoosy - I thought Heston was fab, and very entertaining. He is very natural on camera and I love his imagination.
Soappie - I love weather maps - well, I adore all maps and Atlas' too!
Poppy - No it wasn't a big box and I couldn't go to the dentists as they rang at 0845 to tell me two dentists had gone sick and so they would have to rebook me for next weds. As I had been pain free for nearly two days at that point I didn't make a fuss. Just have to hope it doesn't come back before next week.
Toots - huggles

Managed to wrap all the extra pressies I needed to with plenty of curly ribbons and cinnimon sticks. All my fathers are done and in a big box so once his card is written (made it yesterday) it can all be sealed up and posted.

Ordered a present for my estranged mother and youngest nephew from the M&S half price hampers section and they deliver free so that means no hassle for me. Just have to find some books for my eldest nephew now.

Still so many cards to make... No snow here but bitterly cold.

Off to find my list..
