I was in my local Heatons earlier today. Not to promising. Bought red and gold wrapping paper that says it all.

I went into Debenhams yesterday and thought I’d walked into a different realm - Christmas trees, decorations, the whole works. ‘Twas lovely 😊

Had friends down for the weekend and had allot of christmas talk. Extremely festive amount of food and drink. Had my last drink on Friday and I am still dying, plus I ate allot of rubbish.

Had a look at my Christmas movies as straight after halloween they are getting dusted off. I seem to loose one or two every year.

Are you checking Boards from your work computer? If so, your IT team has some of the sites blocked. I can only see a handful of the pics while using my work laptop as the IT team here have a lot of sites like Flickr/Facebook/Twitter/Photobucket etc. blocked

Jude13

Ah ha, yup that's it, very strict here. Whats the best site to use to upload?

Applied for Toy Show tickets and then told my husband that I'd put him down for a party piece.

Actually, that's something Glitzgirl could tell us about. Do they get people to get up and do a party piece? I can't remember from your thread last year.

Ooooh, exciting toy show talk!

They’re building the ice rink at Blanch shopping centre. A sure sign Christmas is coming!

Hey Christmas lovers!

Love seeing all excitement about Toy Show and that Halloween will be over soon- just means Christmas is closer! Hope to find out whether I will get my Christmas leave or not today- fingers crossed I see Penneys are meant to have those Disney baubles in this week so I will be going to work later than usual as I will wait until 9 to check in mornings tomorrow and on Friday
