Well that time of year is creeping up on us and just wondered if you were a lover or a hater lol???
I LOVE IT!! I am always organised way too early after running a toy shop with my parents for 10 years you get used to getting in early as you know fine well if you don't by the time u start to think its too late all the good stuff has already gone! We were there for Teletubbies, Buzz lightyear and Tracy Island and I cant help myself having to source this years must have. Got my 15 year old daughter a Go Go Hampster which she will think I have gone mad but it gives me pleasure knowing I got one lol ;)
I love sourcing really unusual gifts and my OH is a total car-a-holic since we have been together (7 years) he has bought and sold about 13 he never loses money but still drives me mad with it! I ordered him a personlised calendar from Vistaprint was free apart from the £3 p & p and its so cool, pics and captions of all his cars and I know he will love it yet it cost peanuts, can def recommend it if you are after a personal touch. I got the idea from my daughter who did one for me a few years ago it was lovely.
We will be spending xmas in our caravan for the 1st time will be good fun we have found a really good way of keeping warm in bed, no not that!! :eek: but I found out mattressa a bit lumpy and after looking at mattress protectors decided the were not much diff to a duvet! so bought a single value duvet from Adsa cost about £7 and it is pretty much the right size for covering a double mattress and with 13 togs on top and on the bottom you will nice and toasty!
Anyone else spending Xmas in their van??????????
