Can I sneak in? I've already bought wrapping paper and cards for next year, plus made a start on birthdays. Not quite as hardcore as some of you, but at least I'm a little more organised, and organisation is soooooo what I need!

Mine and Ronnies day was fun , I babysat a 18monthold from work and took Ronnie with me both were good , ate at the same time , burped at the same time napped at the same time lol x

After taking Ronnie home I came back and collapsed his travel cot , took out some rubbish and recycling from my room and put away my clean washing , tomorrow more cleaning and decluttering for my bedroom and hopefully my dad can put up my new calendar and the new fairy Godmother canvas my Goddaughters family brought me.

Take care happy new year everyone x

Hi all, sorry to keep posting but just wanted to share that I bought my god daughter and my friends Daughter Xmas presents today - didn't intend to but saw them on offer! Also bought some half price Xmas cards from wilkos which you put your own pic in so thought we could put a photo of the baby in and give them to our parents, siblings etc, and we should have enough left over from this year for everyone else.

Also remembered I have two immaculate childrens book that I bought from a car boot a couple of months ago which I'm putting aside for the above two girls birthdays! Xxx

Never be sorry for posting, were one big family on here, sounds like you got some gd bargains, the family will love the photo cards,
xx

How fab are those fireworks in London? I thought we had to cut back spending in hospitals, schools and everything else, but we can have huge fireworks

Has anyone heard when Boots are planning the 75% OFF, - half sorted this end, budgets and lists done, BHS order came DD looks fab in the dress, bit big and long (ordered age 14/15), just got to tighten the straps and think we might need some off the bottom, but for £6 its gorgeous. Just waiting for M+S, couple small bits only spent £10 but theres 4 presents so balances out xx
