It's making my eyes funny with all these !!!!!! there is always someone / somepeople who have to try and ruin thing :mad:
On a brighter note found the running top for my dad on M&M Direct :j thinking I will purchase a wooly hat for BIL and he is a joiner/builder and spends a lot of time outside, in cold places and wearing them plus they get dirty quick so it will be of use - this too I am going to order from M&M. Just FIL I am stuck for ideas at the moment and also OH who I might purchase some more slippers for as his are getting ready - oooo I wonder what M&M have whilst i'm orderingChristmas is the most magical time of the year :santa2:

Congratulations on the job Pink. That's fantastic!
I broke up with my partner yesterday, of 19 months.Even if I know it has been heading that way for a while, it is still very hard to cope with at the moment. I am in a state of disbelief I think - I can't quite get my ahead around him not being there anymore... I had also sorted out pretty much all of his birthday and Christmas presents. Annoying. :mad: I've sent him one of the presents as it was a personalised book that cost me £20 - can hardly regift it or send it back. He might as well have it. I might try and redirect some of the other things or give them to charity - I don't want them hanging around here but I don't want them to go to waste. The annoying thing is I don't know anyone who would appreciate them as much as him, as he has quite... individual taste.
