Crowdpleaser there's lots of Disney stuff in Poundland.

Not feeling very christmassy at all today. Our car got broken into last night and the kid's in car dvd players were stolen. They were hidden away under the drivers seat with a coat over them but whoever it was must have known they were there as they were the only things stolen! Our car insurance company will cover the dvd players but dh will lose his 6 years no claims bonus. Trying to decide if it's worth it or not. Also gotta pay out £60 to get the broken window replaced. Not a happy bunny. :mad:

Oh no Hanley how horrible. And to know it must be someone who's been watching

I hope everyone is well aside from horrible drivers and thieves and people with bad attitudes and seasonal illness and job woes and all the other things that seem to be befalling us all it always seems much harder at this time of year too, it isn't quite festive enough yet to make the cold and the stresses feel a bit less. :grouphug:

Thank you. Did start making some snowflakes today funnily enough! Decided i'm gonna try using wall paper lining paper to make a snowy scene. I'm certainly no artist:rotfl:
Off to Basildon tomorrow, the home of the cheap shops. Got planned visits to 99p shop, 98p shop, poundland, poundworld, QD Primark and if i can squeeze in a trip to home bargins. Think i might need a wee drink on my return :rudolf::rudolf::xmassmile

I was there yesterday but didn't notice these! :eek: Must have been the gazillions of other people getting in the way!

Don't know if anyone caught Pointless Celebrities on Saturday evening - they had a Christmas film round!

:T:T

i did wonder during that round if any of my fellow x-mas nuts were watching! :rotfl:

Bless you Linky, what a truly lovely thing to say. I love this thread, dread to think how I'd be feeling without it. Don't really deserve sympathy I'm just feeling sorry for myself I think.

we all have days like that its nice to have sympathy sometimes so you know we all care

Am going to make the boxes for children. Everything else I make is aimed at adults.
