MrsHayes when I get him he will be named The Old Man.
It was what my gt grandfather was known as.

I am slowly getting the whole family.

Greenleaf was the name of my gt gt gt grandfather and Esther was my gt gt grandmother.

I wonder what they would think of me calling Stags after them :rotfl:

I personally think its a lovely sentiment

Fiesty- sorry to hear the news about dh, could you get another solicitors opinion? It must make you so angry and upset, I do hope everything with the shop is going smoothly and helping to take your mind off it.
OMO- I love your stags, will you show us a pic of them all done and proudly displayed when you get to put them up, are they for christmas only or all year round?
Went shopping with a friend today which ended up as a christmas shopping trip again. Got 2 more Xmas mags a a perfect christmas book from matalan. Got ds Xmas bowls and plates which will go in our December hamper and a couple more little bits for dh. Very close to being finished on the shopping side of things now, just still lots of things to make, which I am looking forward to doing with ds :-)

busy day today lots of xmas shopping
got the stag shortbread tin from M&S as its 1/2 price they also had lots of other biscuit tins on 3 for 2 including the revolving musical tree £10 though hoping that will go to 1/2 price aswell

picked up the reindeer draught excluder from lidl not the best quality but ds would part with it they had lots of very yummy looking xmas foods so will pick up a few bits next wk

saw this stag/reindeer head on asda christmas shop http://direct.asda.com/White-Reindeer-Head/001884071,default,pd.html which I might get as thinking its more toddler friendly love the ceramic ones but don't think they'd stay on one piece for long maybe next yr
they also have some cute gingerbread man wrap http://direct.asda.com/Paper-Gift-Wrap/001884533,default,pd.html but I brought the brown paper stag print one from primarni today so will resist buying anymore
