  • Hi 👋 
    I've allocated numbers 😊
    I have not put up any decorations yet, it's too early for me maybe the first weekend of December,  but we'll see!
    As a rule I enjoy Christmas but hubby does not like it very much, so I tread carefully and do it gently.
    Unexpected visit from my sister this weekend, although mum knew she didn't tell us and she's staying at mum's, here until Wednesday, but am only just getting into purchasing gifts and have not bought anything for my nephew (22) - any ideas?
    Catch you all soon

  • Can I join again please.  I reached target this year.  

    Can I go for £1200 as Xmas and December birthdays together.  Really helped ease this year Christmas shopping.  Happy for any number.
  • Gift idea - cinema voucher or gaming voucher.  I tend to give vouchers and monies to older nieces and nephews.  They do a gift card purchased at the post office that can be spent in lots of shops.  Or maybe a nice leather belt or wallet.
