I've never been into watching the X Factor, Pop Idol type shows, not sure why.
OMG, I just read your tickers!! Lol. How many days are you home before you're back again?
I was flashing like a mad woman!
Helloooooo all!!
Been doing a little bit more Christmas shopping today!
Every year we (Well, mostly me, but we say we!!) make a hamper for Robert's parents as part of their Christmas pressies. I usually put in some nice pâtés, oatcakes, wine, a Christmas Candle, cinnamon sticks, etc.... This year we've bought a few bits nice and early for it:
- Lobster Pâté
- Venison Pâté
- Smoked Salmon Pâté
- A little Elephant shaped tin of Earl Grey
- Caramalised Onion Chutney
- Tomato and Garlic Chutney
- Fruit Chutney
- A little old fashioned glass jar of jelly babies
A nice little haul I feel!Now I just need a nice bottle of wine, the candle and maybe some cinnamon sticks tied with ribbon....

Hi Bob, your gifts sound lovely![]()
I have nearly finished getting my niece & nephews presents. Fortunately they are still very young so I can get the present early without them changing their minds about what they like![]()
Yes a hamper maker Bob - it could fund trips to DLRP!
Thank you!
Lol- Thats always the problem with kids, isn't it? When I used to work in the Playcentre, I can remember one Xmas eve talking to a little girl about what she wanted for Christmas... They were just heading home for the night, and she was going to have a bath and go to bed early because she wanted Christmas morning to come round quickly... I asked her what she was hoping to get for Christmas and she said: "A Rocking Horse.".... Her parent's faces fell to the floor!!!! Bearing in mind it was 4pm on Christmas eve, I don't think they stood a chance of getting her one in time! Her Dad asked to borrow our phone book to ring Argos and pray they'd be open.... Whilst I was getting him it out of the office he said: "We've already bought her a really nice bike!! And then she wanted to be an artist, so we've got her and Easel and everything!!".... Poor man looked to be at breaking point!
