    Hi Chrissy, You probably already know this but Home Bargains had some really good little gardening bargains when I popped in there last week - I was wracking my brains to think of anyone I buy for that likes gardening but drew a blank lol.

    ooh I feel a shopping trip comming on !

    I'm back from the sunshine to freezing cold weather. I picked up some bargains for Christmas 2013 while I was away and I've taken some photos of my stash (most of which came from one craft shop) which I will be happy to share just as soon as I've worked out how to upload them (I'm hopelessly non technical).

    I can't believe how busy you have all been over the last few weeks. I think I have an entire novel to read to catch up - should definitely be on the bestseller list too:)

    This was some non Christmas stuff I picked up in the craft shop. 3 little tote bags, 3 notepads with pens, recipe cards, notelets, magnetic note pads and a spiral bound pad.

    Oct2012-Jan2013080_zpsb9c204e3.jpg

    and this was my Christmas haul - one large gift bag, 2 small ones,a set of Christmas chocolate moulds, 2 boxes of christmas cards (24 in total), 6 deep red bows for attaching to garlands (or something), 2 Christmas notepads, 1 tin of peanut butter choclate santas and 12 gold "pull " bows
    Oct2012-Jan2013079_zps00d638eb.jpg

    All for the princely sum of $19 or about £12 which I thought was a steal.

    Sorry if the photos are rubbish, uploading to photobucket was a new thing for me so thanks to OMO for challenging me to post some photos - I've learned a new skill today!

    Am posting from my phone while in bed. I have a chest infection. My Dad has is and so does Dd, but I really thought I had got away without getting it.
    My head aches, my nose is blocked and I have a sore throat. The cough is there but it hasn't broken yet. I am going back to sleep now. Bye.
