    Susan there are quite a few that do M&S vouchers, I was collecting them after Christmas to pay for bits for my wedding outfit, shoes etc. As for L2S vouchers, I am not too sure as I have never had them. I will ask around and come back if I find any. I cant remember the ones that do M&S at the moment either lol, will have to look them up too xx

    morning all
    welcome to the new people
    i can see busyness and organisation are creeping in, love all the ideas people are bringing with them
    just remembered fathers day so need to get that sorted, sadly for dil it can only be flowers but a couple of the ornaments at the cemetery are looking weatherworn.
    need to ring step mum to ask for ideas for my dad, usually get a bottle of something and do a cross stitch card.
    DH is sorted, im getting him a piece of fitness equipment he wants from me and all the kids, and they will all do their own things as well. hearing some really good ideas from them so he should have a great day.

    going to try and make a bag book this week will post a photo of my attempt once its done

    hope everyone is having a good time getting their stash prepared and sorted.

    Hi all!

    I've finished drawings for parents-in-law Christmas gift (maybe anniversary gift which is between Christmas and NY). Just need Mr Delta to frame them which he can do for peanuts at his work.

    Here they are:-

    sarah - great bargain, i missed that one :-(

    echo, love the drawings, as usual. Do you do animals?

    moneypenny I`d be interested to see if the glue gun works, im still looking for a book, think im too fussy


    AJ - i used to do swag big time last year, this year i`ve been distracted by other things. Im like you money falls through my hands and never seem to have anything. I think im better off internet shopping, looking for bargains.

    Well my 1p tree turned up, its a substitute , they sent a different colour, and enclosed a £10 gift voucher as an apology . I would have liked the yellow one but who am I to complain

    That's a good result with the tree!

    Not tried drawing any animals.... There's a thought! I took a cute picture of my friend's cat a couple of weeks ago, I could give that a whirl. Thanks for the idea. :)

    Btw not all that long until Christmas really, made a dentist appointment today and 6 months is the end of November! We'll definitely be on the home straight then!
