    My list to Santa - the realistic list!:D

    Complete Frasier box set
    Complete Coast box set
    Crochet stuff, including a book entitled something like "Crochet for the Cack-handed"
    Books books books!
    New saucepans, mine seem to be dying food black, very unappetising!
    Perfume, I rarely wear it but I do like it and never buy it for myself!

    The unrealistic list!:D

    A big farmhouse in Devon, modernised but with character
    A dishwasher
    A nose job!
    Rafael Nadal:D

    Edit - what I will get

    A couple of books which will be lovely, Jelly Babies, and hopefully some Baileys!
  • right my sexy darlings, I must go to bed (OH is already up there and I'll have no space or covers if I get up there too slow). I've asked for Troll beads for chrimbo, and soapmaking books! If money was no object I'd like a purpose built space to start my business in! Oh and all the stock of course :D

    Have a lovely night, will catch up with you tomorrow xxx

    Our greatest weakness lies in giving up; always try just one more time

    hi buffy - oh no! We might have to have another party next week, any excuse!!:j:j I won't be doing any tidying after nearly getting lynched for the hoover incident earlier:rotfl:

    No thanks Helen, but thanks for reminding me I need to buy some tomorrow!

    I'm starting to feel really carpy now, need to ease myself back into party mode more slowly! Once this cold has gone I'll do much better!
