Just back from slimming world was very excited to see that they have released the Christmas magazine which comes with a 2018 calendar. There is a lovely recipe for gingerbread stars (edible Christmas decorations).

And dont forget your pooches....you cant get an appointment to get dogs beautified in December unless you book well in advance....... We have 2 dogs...one who has to get clipped. Got caught the first year we had him....could.nt get an appointment anytime in December. Now he is booked in..about 6 months in advance....... Even our pouches have to be ready for Christmas.......!!!

Popped into Lidl this morning before work and noticed that they have a Christmas goodies aisle. Didn’t get a chance to check it out though because I was already late!

It's basically the same as previous years!

I started a Christmas shopping (grocery) list on excel this eve, think we will start getting a few bits of meat (that can be frozen) from next week onwards purely because we won't have any plans to be in town from Xmas eve til around New Years, only time we'd be in town is to grab some veg etc if we need it.

I love an excel list. I am totally stealing this idea.

ciara007

Also ordered one of these for my nanny. I love Christmas decorations and I think these are beautiful. Attachment not found.

Great idea. I always get my mam and dads dog a little something for xmas day! I am getting married on the 18th of November and ordered decorations from Jazzy Creations in August for the tree in the hotel.

It's my OH's first Christmas in my folks house, we are staying in my folks but having dinner in my aunts which is a short walk away. Any idea's on how to make it special for her?

Try doing something just the two of ye. Possibly in the morning before ye join the madness. Also do something that she might do with her family. Any traditions they might have.
