Morning all,

Managed no flying yesterday so as I am waiting in for a delivery today is catch up time. Spend yesterday morning having coffee with a friend which turned into lunch as well, then the afternoon was spend collecting dd2 from school doing homework and getting her fed and over to another friends to be looked after while we went to dd1's carol concert in Perth. concert was fab its the first time that she has taken part as normally she stays clear of all these things but really enjoyed herself and is allready talking about doing it again next year.

So today I will work from my own list but have several bits from lil_me's.

strip bed and remake
hoover - master bedroom, living room, hall, bathroom
clean bathroom
clean ensuite
tidy study so have room for todays delivery
wrap xmas presents which need posting
finish writing xmas cards which need posting
clear ironing pile (about 90mins worth)
make soup for lunch
evening meal - I have forgotten to take something out of freezer so away to see what I have there that will defrost quickly.
wilko's order - have list just need to order it
update tesco xmas order - coming next friday but I still have stuff to add to it.

Right thats me for now, quick coffee loud music and then I will set to it, but may pop make on the pretence of updating list!

I now have 1p in my A&L account!! lol.. I bought some ELC stuff for DS3.. and a couple of things for the others.. DD3 likes outdoor stuff so I have got her the hopscotch thing for her birthday next Wednesday.. IF it arrives in time.. if not she can have the skates I've got her for christmas, I'll just switch them over. I got DD5 a super scribbler as ours has about had it.

They don't appear to stock the pram any more either which is a pain as that one was really nice.. have to find another!

I have dozens of parcels still to arrive.. my lush one.. what are they doing.. making it!?!?!?!? I'm going to ring them in the morning if it isn't here today! 9 days is seeming unreasonable!! And I have an order outstanding from the 23rd November!!!!! Ooooh I might ring today!

Redhouse .. in 4 lots
Amazon
2 from ebay
2 things from play.com which I am chasing in a minute!
1 from joe browns.
1 from ebuyer..
1 from littlewoods
EEEKK!!!! ... That is lots!!!! And I've probably missed some!

There's an M&S one as well..

pigpen

ok.. I emailed lush today.. some things are too good to wait for!

and phoned play.. they have just despatched the 2 cameras today.. phew.. they'll be here .. Tuesday probably.. my courier likes me.. !!

pigpen

I email lush and then I get a box! lol.. only 1 thing in it mind you.. and why are they packaging in popcorn?? it STINKS!!!! I was almost sick when I opened the box! I liked the shredded paper I could put that in my composter.. and it was perfect as a firestarter

My tv has just been delivered - it has taken two years of daily clicks, piggy points and surveys to get here plus what we would have spent on each other this christmas but I am soooo excited but we are not going to open until near christmas so I have put it away in the study without even a peek.

I have also remembered that my tesco wine delivery is due today in the next two hours so might just have to open that tonight;)

Pigpen I feel for you waiting for so many deliveries mine are almost all here just waiting on two which should be next week.

Lunchtime - anyone for leek & potato soup.

Will update after lunch.

Just made sure I did all sigh ups with pigsback in two names, clicks from two computers and all surveys where I could get John Lewis vouchers. It's been worth it - starting towards a laptop now with vouchers from comet via shopnscan and consumer pulse hopefully that will be next christmas taken care off!
