    feisty was it you who was asking about good youtube Christmas videos? Without me scrolling back through I can't remember sorry! I have just come across a user - designsbymechelle (I can't post the link as I have found it via my phone)! She has loooads of Christmassy house videos and they are quite good, although I imagine the one's OMO find are amazing, so I look forward to any recommendations :)
    Christmas is the most magical time of the year :santa2:

  • thank you for all your help re monopoly...cant remember who suggested it but am going to hunt out the christmas version, if not may stick with despicable me...as all kiddies love that film,
    as for christmas prep, dd2 turn 2 in a few weeks so sorting through stash for that, afterwards hoping to be finished by october.

    Hello all,

    I've been following your posts avidly and wondered if I can join you too?

    I'm a massive christmas head, been browsing and half planning for weeks now but I finally downloaded a christmas present app on my phone last week and realised just how many we buy for :eek:
    Generally relatives and our friends children, 32 gifts not including our own two! So I've started bargain hunting and so far I've accumulated a fair few online buys in the house of Fraser and kiddicare sales so I've made a start!

    I love the birthday plaques, what do I search for online for the kit can I ask?

    Went into a local fancy pants shop today and they had they're Xmas shop set up :) lush but oh so pricey, just for looking me thinks!

    Looking forward to getting into the spirit of it with you all
