    I was in the one in Cork yesterday, it was lovely but I think that M&S near Alicat is a bigger store. So much nice stuff, really wanted to buy some of the candles but I resisted!

    Just thinking, i'm sure some of the lights on our tree gave up last year so probably have to buy new ones...I bloody hate christmas lights, always breaking and I get really frustrated when they do cos i want the tree to be perfect! :-D

    The stuff is lovely alright, the space is just so limited in Cork I think!

    The lights tangling up fun every year :pac:

    Penneys have great candles this year! Got a few today. The Christmas Spice one is really nice and they're only EUR1!!
    The silver one isn't really seasonal (White Lily & Peony) but the large ones that are EUR5 look amazing when the are lit up. Very impressed :)

    I got lovely goblet shaped glasses in Tk Maxx at the weekend, 6 for €12, ideal for tea lights. They have a frosted top.
    Had spent about the same on ONE glass in Meadows and Byrne last year.

    This arrived too - http://www.hobbysew.co.uk/products/necchi-vigorelli-s1?variant=5127562947

    I got it at a way better price though.

    That's really cute. If it was more colourful I'd buy it for my nephew. He's only 5 though so I don't think he'd appreciate it, colourful or not!
