Got two bargain 'little black dresses' last night for my teenage daughters.. they are the same. think they will mind? pretty lace ones they are i, i thought if i got different colour types of accessories to go with they won't even notice lol oh well will save them borrow each others and arguing won't it lol.

Maybe buy corsage type brooches, the dresses wil look different then.

I was 8 when my older brother told me about Santa, and I remember being shocked and upset, I wasnt ready to hear that!
(and probably still hold it against him :rotfl:) My DD said she was suspicious at 9 and didnt really beleive at 10, DS was the same but he's never let on - as you say, bread/butter! :rotfl:

A friend who was two years older than I was told me when I was 8. My best friend believed til she was 13! My two SIL both have Downs and still believe at 25 and 31, so magical ! I just hope my nephews don't tell them when they stop believing (the eldest is 10 now...)

Not getting much crafting done trying to keep up with this thread, only 4 more pages to go I think :rotfl:

Oh god, 4 year olds are more mature than me.
I thought it wouldn't be scary since it was dark, but it made it worse!

But it's beautiful at night. You can see London all lit up.:xmastree:

Just spotted something about CamelCamelCamel that I hadnt realised which is REALLY helpful! if you put something on to watch on Amazon and put in the price you want, it gives you total price history ...so if you ordered something on preorder under their price guarantee already, it shows you lower prices you may not have seen! one of my gifts I preordered in July, out in October, I saw it for pre order elsewhere slightly cheaper so thought I might cancel Amazon if it doesnt come down to that price before release .. when I put it in to watch at a lower price today it showed me that it had come down one night at 3.55am (after I pre ordered) to the price I wanted to pay - so I should get it at that price under the guarantee even though I didnt see it!

don't know if everyone knew that anyway, but I didnt!

Newbie here wanting to say hi :wave: I love christmas but have to say its harder this year my 18 year old daughter is usually the one that helps with all the christmas decorations and movie watching, but a month ago she decided to move in with her dad 100 miles away. Wont stop me loving christmas but certainly not the same now I have no kids at home.
For those that love snow just seen on the daily express online that we are due a winter blast of snow next week :eek:
Was just wondering if any of you have been here to the Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park ? Looks nice and wondering if its worth doing or not. Anyway gone on enough so bye for now :snow_laug

Snow? yay! I bought some snow boots last October abd we never got enough snow to warrant wearing them :rotfl:

Only one more page to go... just realised there's probably a page on here with loads of posts from me, I'm making my reading time even longer

Finally I've caught up! Only managed to stamp 2 cards though

We were considering going to the Hyde Park Winter Wonderland this year but don't think we can really afford it. Definitely doing it next year. Last year we did Lincoln Christmas market.

Missed half of 1 because I was helping DH sort out under the stairs. Quite enjoying 2. There can be some really cheesy films on here at christmas time.

FOund two bottles of mulled wine under the stairs from last year :rotfl:

I know this has nothing to do with Christmas,
But True Entertainment have shown so many clips of the film ' The Stanger Beside Me' they don't really need to show the film on Wednesday.:rotfl:

Thanks that Harrods one is lovely, and I do love Disney, not so sure the DIL would though she usually has a set colour theme to her christmas decs.
I have done Lincoln christmas market before a few years ago now though, loved it but it was so busy.
I watched the nativity for the first time last night and though it was a lovely film.:xmassmile
