    I'm in, though probably more next weekend than this week...though DH might do some.

    All ready for tomorrow, work bag packed, clothes out, spare room sorted so DH can wrap prezzies whilst I'm out tomorrow after work. I've also S&S'd the bathroom so it will do til bathroom day.

    Had a gorgeous roast (cord fed chicken, yum) which is now all washed up and there's enough left for dinner on tuesday, plus chicken for the freezer. :D

    OOoh, and the tree is up - looks lovely.

    Valli - if any of them are younger why not buy a small box of sweets and put 50p's on the outside of it. I do this for children's parties now - usually a fivers worth. The children love it.

    My top tip for Christmas is to sit down today/tomorrow and make the decision on what to buy - pretend it's Christmas Eve so you have to decide and then do it. Then you're not stressing for the next week and a half.

    Sorry if I'm being bossy xx

    Valli ... I do really need to clean my oven :o
    I have even bought the stuff to do it - about 3 months ago :eek:
    I am sure I will do it soon :rolleyes:

    I have just checked my order on Amazon... and its at the stage where it cannot be cancelled. So, I will have to have it, then send it back :rolleyes:
    Typical.

    I almost feel sorry for LL's consultant....I said ALMOST!

    lol I was thinking that as well but didn't want to voice it for fear of being pelted with rotten tomatoes! :eek::eek::D:rotfl:

    Will be another one 'there' with you tomorrow.

    Well we have been here there and everywhere it seems this weekend, I decided on the last hop to nip to Matalan to try and get Christmas outfits for us all. Got a lovely dress, shoes, tights and cardi for Miss A and a shirt, tie, waistcoat (all his own choice :) ) and trousers for W. I got a pair of shoes and a coat!

    Better skidaddle to bed so I can read a bit more of my book and be up bright and early to get some wrapping done before W's nativity at 1.30 tomorrow afternoon.

    Night all xx
