I seemed to have inadvertently bought the makings of a marvel comics hamper for ds so figured last night that I might as well go the whole hog. I have a mug & chocolate set in vintage decorative box from Iceland & a couple of gift sets, hand wash & shower gel from £land & an aftershave & key ring set (he is 7 but.. just don't ask!) so am now going to wrap it in marvel comic paper (need) and add a new lunch box set & back pack, so if anyone sees any marvel comics stuff that looks like this;

please let me know

They had choc bars in primark. A HUGE book on the book people website, which has dropped in price even more since I bought it.

Lots of socks/undies about in supermarkets and matalan.
If you find the wrapping paper, please let me know where. I know I've seen it somewhere, but can't think where it was!

I am just back from DD2s i had to take her to midwife appt (lucky i have got DD1s car) as she is still having contractions and i dont think its safe for her to be driving, the hospital said she was in early labour on sunday and midwife is saying the same, how long can you be in early labour though??? Does anyone on here know? I am so rusty but i never suffered with braxton hicks or early labour pains so i just cant advise her. The midwife has given her some co codamol because her back is painful as well with the contractions so hopefully it will at least take the edge off

BETH hello and welcome to our thread, i cant believe you asked a thread of christmas nuts if it was too early to play christmas songs :D:D haha my DS is like CHRISSYGs DD has christmas songs on his ipod so we always hear them all year round He also loves giraffes has been obsessed since being little, now 23

GETTINGTHEREQUICKLY oh no poor you sometimes people can make you feel excrutiatingly embarrassed cant they?

PIXTOTTS im sure it will all work out perfectly in the end my lovely, good luck!

CHRISSYG ooh have fun tomorrow it looks fab

NEWTHRIFT sending you hugs my lovely

QUIDSY will keep an eye out

Primark were selling Marvel Wrapping paper. I bought it a few weeks ago to wrap up b'day pressies lol. £1 a roll:T

B&M also have loads of Marvel sets, mugs with chocolate, 3 different soap sets, socks, and something else I picked up but can't remember now:think: If I remember I'll get back to you on it lol:o


I'm still on the lookout for proper Christmas Party Bags that won't cost me an arm and a leg:eek: and a small cheap white Christmas tree.

Aha. It was probably Primark oxford st that I saw the paper then. Didn't get it there as I didn't want to cart it home. I'll get it in the local branch.

I've seen the B&M stuff, but was on my motorbike and didn't have room in the rucksack. Need to pop back on the bus as they also had Rosey Nosey ale sets there and I want one of those for him.

Just had some amazon vouchers come through, so splurged on some Christmas kindle books for myself. Feeling quite poorly today and shopping always cheers me up. Time for a nice warming hot choc now, I think. Speaking of which, options Belgium choc sachets are 10p in home bargains. Good for stocking fillers?
