Can I ask how many lights you have and how tall your tree is? It looks amazing, all covered in lights!Hobnobs are like marines0 -
Loving the pictures xxI must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -
Piccies and T shirt gave me a lot of pleasure and a good giggle, thank you!Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0

Wow loving your pictures guys!
It's our town's Christmas fair and light switch on today, went round earlier and got a poinsettia to take in for my desk and work and some other tinselly bits for the office.
Might head back in a bit and watch the lights being turned on :rudolf:
moneysavingmumofone - The angel is a tree decoration from Gisela Graham, it works as a tree topper perfectly cause our tree is only tiny :rotfl:

I just nipped on quickly to let you know I haven't had the baby yet :-O I might be induced Tuesday but it all depends on my blood pressure, if that's ok then I wont be induced until the 12th!! It's great though because they never expected him to be in full term and to go overdue and be allowed to let him come naturally up to a certain point means they aren't concerned at all
I would like it if he would make an appearance this week though
My SPD is worse now so I *allowed* hubby to put the tree up lol (oh dear!!!) we did that yesterday, finished wrapping all our presents for everyone (except the photo frames) and put everything under the tree. We also put some fairy lights in our archway which look very pretty
Today we even ventured to our special garden centre today - we were a little bit disappointed and i ended up making a complaint but it was nice to get out and get involved in christmassy celebrations compared to being stuck at home
I will try to keep you all updated
hope you are all well xx
Glad to hear your OK.xx
You ar not alone being disappointed with Christmas displays, ranges etc. Quite a few of us have felt the same.:(0 -

hope you are all well xxDS was a week late but my appointment to see the consultant about being induced wasnt until 14 days after his due date! As long as everythings ok I dont think they worry too much, some babies are just very snug inside and dont want to be moved!
Hope you meet your baby boy soon, Im so excited for you. :j
Lovely pictures MrsDrink and RebelHedgehog, your trees are beautiful!
We've finished the tree now and I have come to the conclusion that I hate pesky tree lights!! :rotfl:OH usually does them but he had to work at 9.30am and isnt back til about 11. The tree is actually pre lit but they're white and I like coloured so had to put 3 more sets on because I only had sets with 20 lights on! Nightmare when they were all getting tangled and now its all decorated and only the white lights are on Ive decided they actually look nice on their own after all! :rotfl: Done some of the house decorating, one wall is done, a few doors, DS' windows, the kitchen windows and DS has used a trillion things to make a 'village' on top of the unit.I think me and OH will be spending all day finishing the rest, luckily its his day off! It looks like an explosion in a tinsel factory in my front room!!
Off to decorate DS' mini tree now!
