    WBDF Lexie is adorable and so looks like a Lexie:)

    Think it was mrs drink that said so scary the night the forum was down! I kno it was awful I couldn't believe it - and woke a few times through the night to check- still off- I needed to chatter! I have a feeling we might well have "crashed" the site:)
    OMO I'm so impressed with your organisation - 2013 present list I'm just gonna put a list up and let you be my personal shopper:)
    Vintage I think your 'blonde' moments from earlier this week must have known there was trouble brewing. Lets hope your new neighbours are nice people even tho they have NO taste!!! ( ask them if they are Christmas people- it seems to be a good way to judge:)

    I'm skint skint skint for a few more days:( need a trip to HB, Wilkos, Matalan and Primani with a list :)

    I'm thinking of - even tho she's officially done- doing my DD a little chocolate hamper - with nothing edible as she's doing SW. That way she can still have her choccie :) x

    Hello newbies and delurkers come on in its lovely in here. Mince pie any one:)

    I'm hoping they re nice will reserve judgement for now :)

    I'm not a happy bunny today, just eaten some Festive Friends and not only are they thinner but they don't seem so tasty. My opinion only :-(

    Judging by other sweets etc they probably are thinner :(. Just as quality street tins are smaller :( bah humbug ( they are probably smaller too :D

    Also having a bad day today, stupid technology, received the Sky Wireless connector this morning, after seeing it on Grabbit, so decided that as the instructions said you bascially just plug in and off you go, would fit it in before DH got home tonight. Arghh - have spent most of the day trying to get the stupid thing to wirelessly connect to my BT home hub, has taken me bloomin hours, have had to reset the whole system in the end, eventually managed to connect it, only to discover have knocked out the wireless on every other device in the house. So have now had to reset all of those as well. Have resorted to a large glass of wine and a packet of my Tesco Xmas Marshmallows for Snowman Soup. Now feel sick, but atleast when hubby comes home its all done, as if he'd had to go through this he would have been a little grumpy to say the least and we would of ended up having a row. ;)

    Hi all.

    Just back from holiday so I've had just a few pages to catch up on!!

    Don't feel like I'm getting anywhere with Christmas shopping. I'm going to go through everything I've bought so far when I'm off work on Monday and then make another list. I'm hoping I'm better organised than I think but I highly doubt it.
  • How do you post pictures?

    Hi Kelly7.

    You'll be fine. You are already more organised than over 50% of the population, who haven't started at all.

    Make a list of people you have to buy for. Then add all the gifts you have already got.
    If you are stuck on what to buy anyone, give us a shout, we LOVE shopping with other peoples money:rotfl:

    Seriously, we are full of ideas and would love to help.:snow_grin

    How do you post pictures?

    From Photobucket ?

    Click on the picture you want to post, so it is the only picture on the screen.

    On the right of the picture are 4 boxes. click on the bottom one.
    It says IMG code.

    Then press paste in your MSE post .
