ah b*gger! just saw exactly what they are showing tomorrow on QVC! my Sky+ will be full to bursting! thanks for the heads up!

whoever mentioned the other week about giving Christmas Eve presents, you inspired me - ive decided to give my BFF and her family (OH and 2 DD's) a CE hamper with wine, chocolates, Pannettone, chips and dips etc etc and Polar Express or another Christmas DVD, she adores Christmas Eve so think she would love it!

Crikey my lists are getting longer by the minute!

Got more stuff for my brothers jelly bean hamper!

He now has

Wild berry mix jelly beans
Big tub of gourmet jelly beans
Haribo jelly beans
Dr pepper jelly beans

Plus I have already got the jelly bean wrapping paper to wrap the basket in and the cellophane to wrap hamper in.

My Santa clause DVD came today by the sounds of it and so did friends little boys sky lander socks!

fab! do you think my teens would like it? we all love Disney type stuff, is it quite Christmassy?

I think they would love it. Santa is a tattooed Russian and the Easter Bunny is a giant Australian rabbit ( he is compared to a kangaroo in the film).

It is actually set at Easter, but beings as the main character is Jack Frost it is still very wintery, so it must be Christmassy.:D

Here is a couple of trailers.

bunbun2 I wasn't trying to say my problems were worse, or makes your look insignificant. I sorry if it came across that way.
Everyone's problems are as serious to them.
I'm really hope your Dh gets some work soon. And I'm glad you are feeling more upbeat. xx

Sorry I didn't know whether to say that or not but then didn't want to ignore it. I didn't read it like that at all

Thank you for this, I may treat myself to this one! I guess we can order it from them now even though it's not officially out yet? (I'm not a big online shopper so I'm quite new to how this pre-ordering thing works really!)


Also, hugs to all those that need them right now. Things will definitely get better, they just have to love everyone's quotes! I shall remember those for my times of need x

Thought my year was improving, but alas my car went kaput today, my beautiful beetle is very poorly, hoping it can be fixed with out wiping out the christmas stash!

Junior j have you seen the jelly belly beanboozled game looks fab but gross at the sametime ! I have it not sute whether to inflict it on us by giving it to my son or on his friends family lol

Glad to see all the progress being made, I am still the winning bidder for the bike at the moment so fingers crossed !

Morning everybody, Just a quick note to say THANK YOU ALL for the messages about my son. He had a much better night last night, his temperature is not as high now. Hes managing with the antibiotic tablets, he has only had the banana flavoured medicine before now but he is 11 in 3 weeks so he said he was too old for that now! AAh my first born is growing up!
Will catch up later after I have dropped my daughter off at nursery and I need to make 2 weight loss so far plaques for slimming class tomorrow and 3 countdown to christmas slimming plaques too xx will catch up later

I was recently contacted by a customer to make some slimming plaques after she saw my countdown to Christmas ones, I'd never thought of branching out - I'm too christmas minded :rotfl:

Just about recovered from yesterdays visit to the range, what a great store, got some lovely little knick knacks things for stamping things for crimping, things for candles and some pot things for... ideas please maybe pot pourri.
Been grocery shopping b-o-r-i-n-g yawn yawn, but, hangs head in shame, I succumbed in Mr Ts and bought the celebrations tub after all. No 'won't power', that's me all over.
Need to crack on and iron, and start to decide what I need to take with me for my London jaunt next week, so looking forward to it, especially Harrods Christmas room, (starts hyperventilating) and the Jack the Ripper tour.
Hugs and happy vibes all round xxx

I loved Harrods at Christmas - hope to go next year It's round the corner from the science museum which is donation entry, so great MSE day out

junior j You poor thing, I really hope you start to feel better soon, you really are going through the ringer x

bunbun really hope things start to improve - everyones problems are individual to them and no one believes certain ones are inferior *hugs*

Well it's offical we're broke :rotfl: our Christmas shopping is going to either have to wait until December when finances are (hopefully) more stable, or people will be having home-made gifts - sadly there will be grumbles from certain recipients, but if they don't get the Christmas spirit of giving not to receive, then they don't deserve anything
