    Sorry if this is a stupid question but why has everyone got pressies under their trees? :o
    Is this coz there's no littl'uns left in your houses who believe in Santa anymore or summat else?

    Took some more photos of my tree as not happy with my others, hopefully these will show the tree better. Also photo of my cute Gingerbread teapot.

    Thank you. I have been fed up with the amount of toys downstairs ruining the look of the house, so I have been ruthless and either put them in cupboards, boxes etc or given them to the Charity Shop.
    Already dreading the thought of more toys in the house with Christmas.

    Thanks for the compliments (if you saw my house normally it is the opposite of calming.) I took the photo to remind myself what it should be like.!!!!
    I bought the tea-pot reduced from £19.99 to £9.99 in a shop in Crosby, near Liverpool last week. It is made by Russ.
    On the other side of the teapot there is another gingerbread man leaning through a window.

    I love all your gingerbread men they are so cute. Your decs are so Christmassy and cute, I love the effect. I am going to Crosby on Saturday, so I could always look in the shop for you. Let me know. It is quite heavy so I think postage would be £4-£5. Obviously I would only charge what I had to pay.
