I will give it a go Elysia if you want! I could close the group so invite only and therefore noone other than us can see whats written and what baragins we are getting so as not to spoil pressie time! Will see what you all say and have a look later on! Could get on the case then ready for new years!

Hi Ladies,

Sorry have not posted lately but Tabi has been keeping me rather busy and hubby has been off so have been spending some time away from the computer.

Havn't done a great deal in the way of surveys but will try and pick it up in the new year, just seems to much other stuff to be doing.

Elysia, have you seen the weather forecast for the midlands for tonight, we could wake up to a nice blanket of snow tomorrow. We visited Mr T's this mornng just in case and have stocked up with the essentials and some of the christmas food just in case.

Loving the sound of all the nativity plays, can't wait for Tabi's first one, although not trying to wish babyhood away, it will be so sweet seeing her all dressed up!

Good to see you Boat Girl. Ohhh I know. I was going to Mr T's tomorrow (as usual) I might just go tonight instead. *Sings* It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Dah de Dah dah dah. (Ohh I shouldn't do that, it'll definitely snow now. )

Thanks Legend - You're a Legend!!! Let's see what everyone else thinks first.

Love the idea of a FB group. Quite happy to help out on it too. Are you thinking totally private Elysia? I can have a chat to legend about it by Pm about how to set it up.

Legend to sell snowman soup you need to a license and insurance incase someone gets ill and takes you to court, not unheard of and if you don't have it you will be prosecuted, which may involve a prison sentence. It's not worth the risk or the hassle to sell a few cones, it will cost you more for the license and insurance, registering self employed and doing end of year accounts etc than you would make profit. Otherwise I would have given it a go. i have stopped with the facebook sales for the moment but will be going great guns next year.

Legend if you want to set up the group, you need to have it a a hidden group but once we are all in you will need to change it over to secret group so that no one else can see our pictures etc and what we write wont be posted on others wall and our own etc. Probably best to pm the group link via pm.

Spent the last hour trying to get some Christmas pics of dd, she thought it would be funny to stick her fingers up her nose lol. Little terror she wont find it so funny stuck on her 18th birthday cake! i think there are some good ones in there, such a challenge as she just doesn't ever want to sit still.

Oh and the fingerprint charm arrived, I actually want to stick it on a necklace now instead of a bracelet as it's so beautiful well worth the hassle and stress. I do feel a little guilty pinching her paw print whilst she was sleeping though haha.

You can do it as a secret group or a closed group. A secret group is completely hidden. No-one will be able to see it even if they know it is there, and you have to be invited to join, so friends with the person who runs it.

closed groups, you can see the group is there, but only see post and comments in there if you are a member.

I do like the idea. Would be nice to share photos, and we wouldn't have to speak in double dutch code all the time.

For anyone who bought those maps and was disappointed - dont know if you want to spend more on it but I just took mine to a printer down the road and got them to photocopy it on to a piece of watercolour paper. It copied perfectly and it looks a million times better just like that because the paper is nice and thick and also is not bright white so makes it look older. I already had the watercolour paper so im not sure how much a sheet would cost, maybe about 50p? and the copy itself was 20p

Had a bad couple of days everythings going wrong atm and hubby just lost his job:( As he was self employed no safe guards either but I am going to enjoy Christmas and worry after its finished just glad Im sorted already

C is going really well but I have a review that went on this morning with 0 rates or views I am wondering if there is maybe an error with it as that seems strange.

Cashed out £30 on free bingo today and had 2 pineys so good little day for money making.

Sorry to hear that. Shows how good being part of this gang is though, that you can worry about it later. With your review, click on it, and I had one added the other day that said error 503. You need to email them if it says that or if it is not showing on the latest reviews, and tell them it is wrong. [EMAIL="info@ciao.co.uk"]info@ciao.co.uk[/EMAIL]. They will fix it for you. Or, i had one you could see but wasn't on the list, and I just put in my about me bit, please could people read this one for me.

I have spent about an hour looking through DY to see how many I still have I can past across. 25. Woohoo. I can't believe how many I have that aren't already across. That is about 70 altogether, plus any I write. No wonder it has been happening for me. Just wondering how many I can write. Hopefully a few more.
