Oh no Piggers, I was only reading yesterday about Pink's passing. Please don't say Rosie has gone too..

I know.. so sad

All those fabulous ideas and recipes and skills our fallen old stylers had and shared to make things better for our young OS-ers.. we should be able to download such info from peoples minds and save it forever..

Wish I could help. I have got 2 who are nearly 14 and 16 and they havent a clue what they want! The one thing I do know is that they will get the smellies sets, clothes etc from other relatives and its a complete waste of money. If I come up with any suggestions I will let you know.

Back to work today after 2 days off poorly. Still not 100% so will take it easy when I finish this afternoon. I havent managed anything off the list and the house could do with a general dust and hoover.

Morning all

No idea what to get my boys 12,18 and 20 either.

Mogs fed, DW emptied, off for a shower as a whole morning of paid stuff, see you at lunchtime.

It sounds boring but for the last couple of years we have mostly given our boys money to put towards music/games etc They get something small such as chocolate as well, but they don't seem to want anything else. Sometimes mugs/books related to things they are interested in go down well.

My boys are 13,17 and 19 years old.

dancemum

My 17 year old wants FIFA 15 and a book about alien and my 12 year old would like most of the Arg-s catelogue back section apart from the pink pages.

I need to up my game today so will be doing HHCs for most of the day unless I'm rescued by anyone.

bossymoo

My house still smells of onions...


Pigpen I would suggest money too, for the jan sales. Have they got decent headphones to keep all that gaming noise to themselves? X

Really ought to go get dressed...
