Hi Kle,

On the website it was £27, I then added the gift pack which was £4 then found a £5 discount code for it and used that so came to £28 including delivery. I can send you a link/voucher codes etc if you want me to?

98jd - your sister is luck so and so! Cant believ how much stuff you have got for her!! You will have to get a van to deliver it. My heart goes out to you trying to wrap that lot. Good luck

Hi Rusty,

That would be awesome if you wouldn't mind please

I didnt realise it was that reasonably priced to start with ive seen it for £60 which is when i was put off haha

Thanks

actually do have to get a van! the owner of the shop I work in is letting me use the works courier service because it works out cheaper than excess baggage on he plane to get back to scotland lol!

this is it wrapped:


is a bit off centre but first go at it and thought if i kept at it would just make it worse.
is just done with an elastic band just now but will be getting a big ribbon to go round it.

Looks great 98J Well done

Kle Pm will be on its way in a few mins ... just uploading a couple of pics to show you.

I thought it was around that price aswell but I searched hard and stumbled across it cheap

kandipandi - nice looking pets basket! I'm sure all concerned will be chuffed to bits

J89 - your basket looks truly generous and I love the cello you used

Anyone I've missed - sorry!

And whoever suggested starting a new thread I think it is a good idea....
