Crikey oh riley, i go into hospital for a few days and it really hit momentum on here...so i'm hitting the ground running a bit and will catch up with the posts in a while.

I see there are a few of you lovely people that have a few problems or are feeling sad/angry/upset/poorly/overwhelmed etc etc...well massive massive hugs to you all...you are all amazing and lovely people please remember that :-)

I'm going shopping on friday with dd, so won't be able to get too many xmas things...she has an inset day ALREADY!!!! grrrrrr! lol.

we are going charity shop shopping as she has had a massive growth spurt and i'm struggling on keeping up if i'm honest, the clothes i brought her at summer are too small now (even the tops i was hoping to carry over to a/w) crazy.

i brought a bag of christmas wishes, they are in offer at co-op 99p a bag and a bag of snowbites...i will also be lego feeling on friday.

I've just been on studio...i pay everything off the same month, they have LOADS of bargains, 39p packs of 16 xmas cards...cool designs for the kids at school. and lots of things on half price with an extra 40% off code 041 if you haven't received a mail out and want to take a peek. I only use them for xmas things so no idea of the quality of the other items but i've always been impressed with their cards and thickness of the wrapping paper and gift bags.

Any how, off to catch up now... xx

monring all
hugs to ALL that need them
what the 'tiger' shop please i cant do cryptic this early:o i havent had enough coffee yet?
had a good find this morning, discovered a box of pressies id bought a couple of years ago and stashed in the top of my wardrobe, loads can be used just for slightly different people now:T but thats a few more sorted

I can't post links yet but if you Google 'Tiger stores' it should take you to the right website! Unfortunately they don't sell online and the shops themselves seem to be limited to the South East (and one in Ireland I think!), but the best way I can describe it is like a mini IKEA!

I'm having a nightmare at the moment, my brother's birthday is in November and he's impossible to buy for at the best of times, so coming up with two presents in two months is incredibly tricky. Any suggestions for a soon-to-be 21 year old boy?
