Wow some great bits the PostingAP. Those bird boxes could be the start of a themed hamper for the grandparents who spend time in the garden. Add some bird food,nuts and the like and that could be lovely to attract feeding birds to their garden.

Hope everything is ok with you Sammy...

Also, in terms of Tesco vouchers I just had a look at the deals site and to be honest there is nothing there that I'd really go for so I think I will just save mines up to around £10-£15 and just buy some make-up. I love the Tesco own brand make-up, which is £1.99 each or 3 items for a fiver (classy bird I know!)

Bit of a tight month coming up so won't be doing much actual shopping for Christmas, will really get planning on what I still have to buy and go for it in October.

Just made my Christmas cake, and my Christmas Pud is steaming as we speak. It smells so good in the house right now.

Addressing Posting Always Posting... so sometimes I am shortened to SAS and I suppose you'd be M. Clear as mud?

I think I've just about decided what most of my family are getting for christmas this year, but haven't been able to start buying anything yet - most of what I want I'll be better off getting closer to the time (can't go into a lot of detail here - family reads this site!) but I've started saving a bit each week towards the cost.

I was in tesco last week and I heard two of the staff talking about the fact they would be putting christmas cookies etc. on the shelves in 2 weeks time - if they're right, it won't be long till we start seeing stuff! Yay christmas :xmassmile
