    love the way a stag has snuck into the photo:T

    :rotfl:

    There's a thread I follow that it about strange pictures people use to sell their homes, and part of it is 'spot the cat'

    Maybe we should start a 'spot the stag' one. :rotfl:

    Afternoon everyone,

    NANAMIA well at least you can get on with the good bits like choosing your rug, curtains, accessories etc :) and you will be having lots of fun with DGD2, thankyou re DS yes i do hope so. Wow you are so organised with your freezer cooking for xmas i havent even started yet! Love the sound of the scones mmm.

    FEISTY thankyou my lovely, i have about 6/7 boxes in my conservatory from the last car boot they did, but the last few weekends have been so wet that it has been cancelled, i know it is a fab way to get quick cash, i think we will have to look further for an indoor one or one on hard ground. Hope you are enjoying your shop, it will get better. Ooh DS just walked in he has his first shift next tuesday so that is good news

    OMO sorry you are still feeling bad sending you get well vibes,
    oh bless DS :), those cushions are gorgeous and your LR looks lovely with the new pictures up

    PIXTOTTS ooh thankyou for that i have to pop to sainsburys tonight am going to look out for them

    Thanks for the picture. I was looking at those on-line the other day, but it is sometimes hard to see what they actually look like when they are just floating on a white background. I will definitely be ordering them now. :D

    ETA - Did they look really small. One of the reasons I didn't order one was because the dimensions they give made them sound tiny.

    :rotfl: Ds just came in the lounge. He likes the pictures, but was wondering if visitors will think we have a drink problem. :rotfl:

    I would say on a par with usual tea light holders, they weren't tiny but they weren't huge either

    Mrs M and Pinknfluffy what a good idea, we could set a date and all watch and wrap together :) Passing the mince pies around might be a little tricky tho xxx
    Linky nooooo It's a Wonderful Life isn't to be watched in colour! I love those cushions but blooming hek do you have to rub my nose in it! Your living room is perfect. Fingers crossed mine turns out ok too :) xxx
    Pinknfluffy yay I've finally ordered the nativity so I will be joining the fan club very soon :) Arthur Christmas arrived today woo hoo. Now when to start watching? xxx
    Picnmix I've not bought the big presents either! Eek. This living room is leaking money at the mo, I more or less know what to buy but I'm a few weeks off getting it yet. X
    Pigpen love the lakeland mag, did you get a £5 off £30 spend too? So tempting, my favourite store x
    MKGIRL I love those books, got Manchester last year and have ordered Perth, Oz to be delivered to DGD1 (hard to admit that that IS her home now) xxx
    Pixitotts cinnamon Pringles, I'm not sure about ha x
    JJ hiya lovely :) we've missed you xxx
    Freespirit I wish I could start to accessorise, no chance till the end of the month! That room is leaking money at every turn. But it's gonna be fab (keep telling myself) As I type DH is doing a little glossing, DGD2 has gone home with her Dad and one of my lovely neighbours called for a coffee she's managed to spur DH on haha.. How is DS? And how you doing pain and BD wise? xxx

    Mrs Hayes you ok my lovely? Missing you :( xxx

    It's not the things you do at Christmastime
    But the Christmas things you do
