  • Been in home and bargains and I've missed the elf mum and dad pjs. I should've known better and snapped them up there and then
    So today I've invested in
    a santa pinata
    reindeer headband with bells
    reindeer head band that lights up
    and an elf.

    Am cross as I have a photo of elf on my phone and can't figure out how to attach what the heck does url mean???

    Url is the website address - the bit that starts http://www

    I can say from experience Mojo that Santa piñatas are really fun, we had one last year and one of our friends hit it so hard we had to go round the neighbours the next morning and pick up drumsticks off her back lawn!
    Free which yankee did you get? Someone at work told me about Ikea, he was whinging but knew I'd love it! Funnily enough the OH said can we please put the heating on so we don't end up with colds lol want to hold out until November but I don't know if I want to deal with man flu either!
    Don't like to veer off topic and mention Halloween but my mum has sent me a picture of her wishing tree with Halloween decorated eggs hanging from it, such a crazy woman! Does anyone else decorate for Halloween, just curious...
    So back to all things festive, thanks for letting us know about Tesco Lazysheep, just spent half hour on there browsing! I'm restraining myself until clubcard boost which I think MSE newsletter said is happening from 2nd November :) can't wait!
    I'm dreaming... of a white Christmas :snow_grin :xmassmile:rudolf:

    You can't post photos straight from your phone / computer / ipad etc directly into the thread - you need to first save the photos to a photo hosting site such as photobucket or imgur.

    Here is happychappy’s guide to uploading photos to the thread. Also includes instructions for ipad and iphone.

    I prefer Imgur myself, and find it very easy to use.

    Hello you lovely lot.

    Yesterday was a BAD pain day for me. I thought I could solider through but just going up to the bathroom left me close to puking and drenched in sweat. My lovely mum looked after me so well. Including picking up my prescription , got me new pjs and picked me up innocent orange juice and Apple juice. When I felt upto eating she made me food and got me cold flannel for head. Bless.

    i have loved reading everyone's xmas routines. Ours will be different this year as bro has moved out. But usually we get up open stockings in bedrooms together (me auntie mum and bro) we come downstairs , on goes the fire and xmas music. We have coffee and meds and all open presents (we open one each all at same time) then clear up and have breakfast eggs or bacon and toast plus more coffee or baileys lol. We spend the day playing with new gadgets , have a nap eat choco all help with xmas dinner. Then my closest friend comes round for presents and she stays . We watch usual Xmas stuff and pig out all day it's simple , chilled but lovely.

    My mum has actually asked for a specific Xmas present. A bells candle which apparently after its burnt away leaves a bit of jewely. £12.99 on website plus pp anyone had one? Or know a code? I will get It this week plus hopefully two more stocking fillers and a pandora charm. My brokers first Xmas moved out plus he will a daddy by Xmas so want to get him stuff to open which is just for him so he doesn't miss out lol. Usually get him clothes smelliest and novelty stuff but he's maxed out on all that now.

    Xx hugs to all

    Do you mind me asking where you found the Shopkins PJ's? My little girl is obsessed, the only present I have for her so far is a box of 30 Season 3 baskets - she's going to pass out im sure :rotfl:

    Really? I just copy and paste photo's straight in, it's a lot quicker.

    DINKY DRAGON. Sorry my quotes aren't working! Grr! They are in asda. Think they're £9. My 6 year old is shopkins obsessed!

    Still stalking amazon for playmobil. Someone posted on hukd that the sainsbobs toy sale starts next weds. I often pick up some smaller things for the girls there although they are getting too old for most of it now at 8 and 6! X
