Good afternoon all :hello:

I did have fun writing my name with the sparklers last night....haven't done that in years!! :dance:

Me too!! I'd forgotten how much fun sparklers are

NSD 2 for me today, I have a serious choccie craving at the moment though so thought I'd better report quick so that I don't give in to the temptation of MrT down the road!!

Have a good weekend everyone,

Whew! deff not a NSD for me today but I knew it wouldn't be due to a hair appt, so took the oppertunity to get some Xmas bits n bobs. I feel like I have been everywhere! Went to get the brown flannels from Primark for a Rudolph present (thanks for the idea littlepinkstars44 ), but I didn't want 4, so thought I could get one in Mr A as I was stopping there on my way home....oh how wrong I was so now, down to my own fault I STILL don't have the flannel I wanted :mad:) Did stop in a Mr T and pick up some beans (buy 1 get 2 free), then down to Mr A via M*talan (flannel hunt) then after just about surviving that, down to another retail centre to the craft store - except they didnt' have half of what I wanted to rudolph and it was all in packs with far more than what I needed. So, after more traffic battling I drove to Mr W in my home town to get some of the ingredients for my winter chutney (plan to make that tomorrow), and popped into the little sewing shop in town too - who DID have pipecleaners in singles, some really cut ribbon with little reindeers on to tie him up with, and, sold pom poms singually (although they were all out of red sparkly ones today) Oh, and stopped at the health food shop to get apricots too - far cheaper than elsewhere.

...and that's just the abridged version of my mad afternoon - totally pooped but think I am getting there now and have updated my list of 'things I need to do' so I am feeling clamer and more organised at least.

Couldn't believe just how many people were out shopping today - even for a Sat - you honestly would have thought it was the first week of Dec instead of Nov.

On the subject of fireworks - none for us as yet (Skippy gone out atm so she's deff not a kitty that is bothered by them :rotfl:) but do need to try and get some sparklers at least for the street gathering tomorrow. OMG - another NSD down the pan then - pants!!

Oooooo.......

Look Spoon - that's two parties already lined up for January now

ETA: Mine's on a Sunday (23rd), and I'm off work the Mon (and Fri and Tues) so won't need to turn in early for once - but I could be flagging a bit as I have a 5 mile race that morning !!

Ohhh, that's the same day as my friend's little boy and the day before my OH (which is also a day before I get paid...always a pain after xmas lol!)

Deff an excuse for a party if you ask me!! Mine is right at the start of January and quite often not bothered with (6th Jan) but a wee online celebration later in the month would be perfect (in keeping with NSD celebrations of course )

NSD number 4 today :-)
