morning!

thank you Nanamia - you are right of course, am feeling a bit more feisty today instead of feeling sorry for myself! xx

littlemschattabox oh I hope so!! we were waiting for the stewards result for so long and I know it sounds awful but I don't like Vettel and I think it becomes a boring sport if one person just runs away with everything, like the Schumacher days, not that it's their fault, its up to the other teams to catch up, but Im so happy Lewis is on pole and so want him to win today, hes been let down all year by the team and he deserves it, DS is Alonso fan so he was very happy ...he tweeted 'Sebastian ... now thats what IM talking about!!! ... I will be so glad not to see 'the finger' after the race...

soooo many fab idea in the last page or so, love those pins!! xx

btw I always go on what the gift would have cost RRP rather than what I paid for it, if that's any help on the Secret Santa, but I dont include the wrapping, tag etc in the budget, not sure if I should or not!

DH had a £10 SS at work last year, he took it a lovely Body Shop basket which RRP at £12 but I paid £2.80 for!

Morning

Went a walk round poundland yesterday for the lady wanting spongebob items for her work hampers they had money tins (very colourful and nice), toothpaste and beakers!

Im currently after a mr and mrs board game, they are going for about 20 - 25 pound on ebay, amazon are they £40 atm, argos sold out.. im being emailed when there back in stock. I don't mind paying up to 15 pounds but that the maximum. I have a price watch on camelcamelcamel for them. So if anybody see's the game at a lower price please let me know!

I'm also wanting any ideas for how I could present a large quantity of malteasers for my OH. Something fun.. :snow_laug

Many Thanks

Carlamarie Cole is a lovely name, it did make me smile that Ronnie's friend is Reggie!!

when DS was born (Luca) we even got one congratulation card with Chelsea FC on it, as they thought we must be Chelsea fans with Gianluca Vialli! strange assumption but there you go!

welcome Shrewbie, lovely idea on the multiframe, thanks!

CHRISSY inspired idea on the advent moulds!

Hello,

I've been following the thread for a few weeks and its given me some great ideas, so thank you.

On my own - I love the coasters you've made, can I ask what technique you used as I know someone who would love these.

Snugglebunny8

will have a think about the Maltesers, TigerLilly, I bet Own My Own will have some great ideas for that!

Is this cheating?

I'm involved in a secret Santa and the spending limit is a strict £5, I wanted to make a Christmas stocking to put the gifts in, now I already have loads of Christmas fabric so I'm planning on using that but a friend says that's cheating and I should factor in the cost of the fabric!! If I factor in the fabric there won't be much of a gift left!!

Opinions please Christmas people...........

That's not cheating - how you chose to wrap your gift is irrelevant, do these meanies take the cost of wrapping paper, ribbon or a gift bag out of the of the fiver?

And yep there's been the beginnings of snow in Wiltshire - but now it's just miserable rain :A

Snugglebunny8

I agree Bladerunner! does seem a bit mean to add the wrapping!

no snow here Dragoneye thank heavens! hate driving in it and some drivers just drive like mad people around here in it!

Crowdpleaser lovely names! I also love Summer, if we have another female pet then I will call her that
