  • Thanks @kdalwayskint. Happy to get off to a good start. 

    I'm so unorganised this year and struggling so determined that this will not be me in 2025.

    I'm in as well, thanks. I'll put in £1 a day and that will be my Xmas present/charity/food money, so if I can afford a little more it will mean more treats for everyone.

  • We are number 9 on the Forum Advent Calendar :D

    @_Dolly_Rocker_ I am usually unorganised, my DH is not keen on this time of year and sometimes it can get on top of me so I decided that this year I would get everything done early. I had said by 1st December but that might have been a bit ambitious!  However, I am super proud of myself as all present buying has been done, I am now waiting for a couple of items to be delivered.  Everything I have so far has been wrapped.

    Welcome to new members and those who are returning, it's nice to see you again :) I have allocated numbers and added a few totals so far today. 

    Catch you soon :)

  • I'll still try and buy bits through the year if I see anything. 

    Harder to do that now that my niece and nephew are getting older though. 

    Oh go us being on the advent calendar!
