    I love when they show the Christmas episodes of Friends. They're always uber festive.

    I think this cup and saucer set is lovely, it says cappuccino but I would love to drink my morning cuppa from it :T

    Thanks for this link, the tea cup is soooo pretty! I am currently buying lots of tea cups and side plates from charity shops/car boot sales for an afternoon tea reception at my wedding next year, so I could use one of those for my present but as it's the main part of the present I think i'd like to buy a new one.

    Thanks to all for letting us know your favourite Christmas films, I have a few but it's good to get a list together so that I can buy the ones I don't have! I tend to save my Christmas films until November/December as something to look forward to but I have watched the Gavin & Stacey Christmas Special a couple of times recently! :D

    The secret of Christmas
    It's not the things you do at Christmastime
    But the Christmas things you do
    All year through

  • seen some amazing looking party food freezer packs in Iceland (I've only recently had one open near me. ) so can't wait to go there nearer the big day.

    I love !celand party food, last Christmas we had the Baileys Dome Cake, it was lush :T brill for those who didn't want Xmas pud!

    On the DVD subject, just this afternoon I went through mine and made a list of them as I was about to update my amazon wishlist/look in the charity shops etc and didn't want to duplicate them.

    Going to spend pretty much the entire of December watching at this rate I think :o I love watching them all year round and try and stock up as much as possible.

    I'm a little obsessed with the TV specials too.

    My personal recommendations are Nativity, Elf, Surviving Christmas, Love Actually, Fred Claus and The Santa Clause 1-3, though most are awesome :)

    Holiday in Handcuffs was one that I found as a surprise last Christmas on BBC2 but it's not available over here - will have to record it off this time if it's on again!

    The Simon Nye panto's are awesome - always repeated on ITV2 at Christmas. Flint Street Nativity is adorable too :)

    Thanks for the list, I am determined to try and get organised this year so that during December I can enjoy putting my feet up and watching some festive DVD's :T

    I love the Flint Street Nativity too

    I have my first session of mediation this week :o me and OH have to go to separate appointments initially, its just to sort out finances rather than go through a court, I hope he can be reasonable! Its all rather fraught here at the moment.

    Have a good day its beautiful here, off to mow the lawn.

    Good luck with this Pixie, just remember one day it will all be over and then you'll be able to fully concentrate on all of the things that make you happy, like Christmas! :)

    Also good luck ALJA with your new job! :T
