    Welcome to this lovely thread I<3 Christmas, Naomi and Magical (apologies if I missed anyone).

    Magical - I think the pics of hampers that I looked through last year were probably the 2012 ones. There is a hamper thread this year but it's more chat than pics. Hopefully someone will be along soon with a better answer for you but if I do find anything more recent I'll let you know.

    I typed a long post last night and then the broadband crashed and I lost it. It took me ages to get the wording right as well :mad:Anyway, the gist of it was welcome home Nanamia, so sorry to hear of the problems you and DH have had and hope he's soon home and feeling much better. Well done on sending the BD on it's way. Also, PrincessKitty I'd said much the same as the others - you can almost guarantee that you'll get lots of conflicting advice so do whatever you think is best and you'll be fine although you'll probably feel guilty whatever you do, I think it just comes with the job lol.
    It's the most wonderful timeof the year :
