    I've been Money Tipped!
    I liked the look of the blackberry vodka and as I have a freezer full of blackberries may try it.

    How come no mention of yorkshire puddings with the Christmas dinner? You can't have Christmas dinner without yorkies!

    we only eat Yorkshire pudding with beef (or as toad in the hole style supper), or twice a decade or something as a pudding with cream:o

    I agree - I love yorkies and have them with any meat! I could actually do without the poultry at Christmas, it's the roasties, yorkies, stuffing, veg, gravy and sauces I like most - plus a few little sausages:)

    That re gifting was more like gift swapping, everyone doing deals with each other. I thought re gifting was wrapping it up again in fresh paper and passing it on. :undecided

    Or in the case of one of my aunts not even bothering to rewrap in fresh paper-my cousin got the socks that his mother had given to my aunts husband. She'd just put a fresh gift tag on!
