    I know the train looks fab!

    Hubby will kill me for telling you all this but when he was little he used to run a bus service from his bedroom down the stairs to the Christmas tree - and he even hand wrote a christmas timetable! Bless x hee hee

    These were the instructions I was sent when I asked the same question

    you need to get the pics onto a hosting site and then add a link in your post on here (click on 'go advanced' and click on the postcard symbol)

    I use photobucket.com - you can make your pictures stay secure and they give you the URL address for adding photos to forums etc. If you need any help I'm sure many of us can be of service

    Hosting site, is one like www.photobucket.com it's free to register.


    photobucket is easy to use. First you need to register then simply click the 'browse' button and find the pic you want to upload on your pc and finally click 'upload'. Once it's uploaded you will see thumbnails of all your uploaded pics and you simply chose the pic you want showing on here and paste the URL and ta dahhhhh

    Bluenose, that is so kind of you, but Im actually only across the water from you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Whats the name of the shop? My friend lives in Formby and she will pop in for me!
    Once again thank you so much for your generous offer.


    Apologies for delay, was hoping to go today as I am not 100% certain what it is called (typical me) However my husband was feeling rather delicate after a works night out and I didn't feel like dragging kids out.
    Anyway I have googled and am pretty certain this is the shop. If your ever up this way it is worth a visit as they have loads of rooms in the back displaying Christmas decorations. Bit of an Aladdins Cave

    Do you hire them out -they are better at decorating the tree than me:o

    Your room does look lovely. It is a shame that you are dreading having more toys in it though. Toys can be a bit untidy but they are not "mucky", I think they make a house look lived in, your room will still look nice even full of toys. Very tasteful decor.

    On christmas day, when my husband was a boy, he was just "shown" some of his toys then they were put away! they were in pristine condition years later:rotfl: poor thing.

    get photobucket free upload a pic from my pictures on your pc click on the pic resize it to email size at the top of the pic and then go back to my album and copy the 2nd link down under the pic then go to the 14th icon at the top of your post looks abit like a postcard says insert image then click on it get rid of the http:// that's already there and paste into that now once it's blank click ok and hey presto your picture will appear...hope this helps anyone...:D

    Dombey and Sons is a fantastic shop all year round and even better at christmas time!
    It's expensive but if you want unique and wonderful gifts this is the place to go!

    need to take a pic of our christmas tree, was away last year so only had a small tabletop christmas tree in living room, now got a big one in hall understairs - very proud of it! :D
