    I got "Drowning" by Camilla Lackberg the other day and "When Nights Were Cold" by Susanna Jones. They have both to be reviewed by a date in March so ok. DH reviews them but is struggling to keep up just now. Take it not many peeps are entering just now.

    I always do all the Waterstones ones and have done really well out of it - get at least a couple a month.

    The last few I've had don't have a "review by" date on the letter that comes with them - I found it easier when they did as then I could organise myself a bit better!

    Don't know if you know, but from time to time they put a post on their FB page saying they have review copies and asking you to email in if you want one. I've had two this month through that route.

    Really pleased with these flowers but my mum says hers are a hundred times nicer! Glad she got the best ones, she is really, really gob smacked as I have never got her flowers before. I have outdone my sisters for once. Buffet went really well especially thanks to DS2 who did most of it. Maybe I can do some comps now.

    Just popping in to wish you all a very Merry Christmas- hope you all get some lovely surprises.

    Sorry my visits to the Inn have been few and far between for the last couple of weeks but I have been laid low with a heavy cold and chest infection and spent little time on line. Managed to "pull myself round" just in time for Christmas even raced round the shops today and did my present shopping. Plenty of bargains to be had so maybe better to leave it to the last minute.

    I have entered very few competions in December so I will be extremely lucky if I will anything.

    Well done everyone on your recent wins.

    Off up to the North East tomorrow to spend Christmas with the family so will be off line until Tuesday night.

    Once again have a Wonderful Christmas everyone.

    Well done on the Sun win Wingo! (Think you must be bribing someone there)

    Glad your mum finally got her flowers Becks. I'm really glad my mum got hers - she is so hard to please! Everyone is getting more than usual this year due to wins!

    Hope you have a good journey Bishopsgirl and enjoy a wonderful Xmas.
