    BBTHREE what a lovely person you are. You've really made me smile. And moneysavingmumofone it's a truly lovely idea :)

    I am constantly amazing by the love and kindness shown on this thread. Thank you everybody it's made such a difference I really appreciate it. It really is a good place to be.

    I too have been drawn into buying the tins of sweets at Mr T's. Bought two tins Celebrations and Roses. Two Terry's chocolate oranges for my stockings - traditional. Do stockings for DD, DSiL, DH, BFF and two elderly neighbours of ours. Need to update my Christmas lists see where I'm up too:) Also picked up some bit for the girlie baking hamper which is coming along lovely. Also managed a few bits for my Godsons hamper I've got copies of Take Away Secrets and the ingredients for one or two of the recipes. Ill update my lists and get back with an update over the weekend.

    I love reading how you are all getting along and enjoy the updates on the baby bumps:-) x
    The secret of Christmas
    It's not the things you do at Christmastime
    But the Christmas things you do
    All year through

    the trick is to log the vouchers you have onto your account before you make an order (if you make an order there is a box to paste a voucher into at checkout but don't think it's multiple ones?) Go to your Amazon account, payment methods, add voucher - you can add as many as you like and they add the total and keep them on your account, then you can use/not use/part use as you like, it asks you at checkout :)

    Thankyou didn't know you could do that!!

  • :rotfl: we used to tell ours that the little red light in the corner of the lounge (burglar alarm sensor!) was Santa keeping tabs ...when it went red he was watching .... :grin:

    will be wonderful having another newborn! what do you have already - boys or girls? and do you know what you are having?

    i love how they believe what we tell them (but also it seems bad as we are lying??? hmmm)
    i have a 6 year old son and a 4 year old daughter so 1 of each - had to fight for this baby as oh only wanted 2!!!! as for this one it has kept its legs firmed closed - through all 4 scans(had extra as my daughter has a heart condition and it was/is a little small) - so it wants to keep us waiting - hopefully not too long!!!

    on the upside - will have a buggy again for xmas shopping - really missed having somewhere to put the bags once dd outgrew hers - hate people bashing my bags!!!

    I used to tell my 2 that the lights on the planes were Santa and his helpers flying over to make sure they were good.

    Then in Oct 2011 we flew to America. Because of 9/11(3 weeks earlier) we had to be at the airport 4 hours before our flight. So we saw a lot of planes take off.
    Ds was 8 and Dd was 4.

    That December when I saw a red light, I said 'Look there's Santa. '
    'Yes on an American Airways International flight ' replied Ds
    I tried so hard not to laugh .
    He still believed for another couple of years .(so he let me believe) lol

    i believe you can request an invite - though when i did this it never materialised. so i got a friend to 'invite' me. sounds very elitist and horrible, don't know why it has to be by invitation! but oh well.
