    Good Morning :)

    Still no snow here. In fact it's not even that cold. I had a very rare lie in this morning. Was lovely. DS1 took DS2 for his walk on the beach and sorted breakfast. What an :A

    I might be forced to go shopping later. Just to top up on essentials. I have to say I'd rather not but people won't stop eating :cool:

    Nerfy I hope your boys are feeling better today

    What a lovely thing to say, Em:T

    Cheese and gin:D Some very smelly cheese (from the French side of the family) and artisan sloe gin.
    Oh, and some clean bedding (Egyptian cotton, 350 thread count ... I've got used to it now:)), some wellies as well (not posh ones, though:cool:), hardboiled crime fiction (what books did you get?), soap and smellies, and a tin of these - just in case I need a sugar rush

    What did you get for other people? That's what I love to hear.

    Of course you got cheese!! :D

    I got four cat books (:o) by James Bowen and Tom Cox. Amy Poehler's autobiography and a book called 'Harry's Last Stand' by Harry Leslie Smith.

    Parents main pressie was a Groupon for a Michelin starred meal. They're always cooking so I thought it would be nice for them to have a break and go somewhere fancy. Also gave them some sea salt I brought back from Iceland, a nice hand cream for Mum and a giant calculator from Ts (reduced earlier in the year) for my Dad :)

    I got PD a GBBO cook book, a Harry Potter Tshirt and a male chicken bottle opener. Three loves combined ;)

    My 'best buy' was probably the Marc Jacobs earrings I got for my friend in Derby. Should have been almost 50 quid but I paid £19 :money:

    Morning all! No snow here. Just damp! :(
