    Thankyou everyone. On the plus I've managed everyone's pressies including his workmates and most of the food and drink on my own. I've done it all and I'm proud of myself as I will be giving my kids a fab Xmas xx

    I think you should be given a medal for that hun, you have done so well :T:T I know what it is to have problems like that, not first hand but I have a friend who had real problems for a while, not with shops but with other things. She got through it in the end though, with a little help. I hope you have some RL good friends around helping you.
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    David, you think like me :eek: xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Just hearing that Ally McCoist is now on gardening leave. Perhaps nice if you can get it like this. Pretty stupid though, wouldn't you say, sending anyone home to tend a garden at this time of year:rotfl::rotfl:?

    cjj, a practical suggestion - just pick up the last minute bits at a corrner shop or express type shop - much less stressful. :A :)
    Hope is not a strategy.
