    Argh that was fatal. just been on the Lakeland site, they have 50% some stuff.:j

    Thank you. I have a £10 Lakeland voucher so I am going to treat myself.


    I started a HHC at about 2pm and got a bit carried away again. I have decluttered and cleaned all the shelves in the kitchen. Then we disentangled the FIVE sets of Christmas lights. Why do I have five?
    We then decorated the living room and put the tree up. :xmastree:

    I have three Christmas wreaths too!

    Oh anyone know anything about Stieff teddy bears or Dehaven teddy bears?

    Depends on what you want to know. Steiff cuddlies aren't cheap, but lovely (and stay valuable, if you look after them). Let me know if you have any specific questions.
