I love doing the cards - I writ something extra in each one.....................when the appropriate time comes, of course  |

I do mine early-ish to save on postage! ;D When I was working, I didn't have time, so they always had to go first class.

I try to write something individual in each one too Auricula but only for some of the people I send to. Takes a bit longer but in my opinion it's better than a name scribbled at the bottom of the page.  |

I totally agree Isabella, seems too remote to have them printed rather than written.

My Son took me to the nursery yesterday to get our trees  I bought a Nordman for the sitting-room and a Norway spruce for outside by the front door You can either dig or cut your tree after going to the field to choose it |

All those tree's must make your home so Christmassy Isabella. ;D One of my friends was telling me she was doing her tree at the weekend with her Grandchildren and she ended up doing it herself after about 10mins. ;D

We haven't got our tree yet - must do it soon! We have one of those artificial ones with neon(?) lights on for the garden room - where the lights change colour - sounds naff but looks pretty through the window!

I've posted the last parcels and the bits that need to go airmail to Spain. That's another job ticked off.

Crikey - he's getting around. Hasn't been here though and I've been very good  |

He was being towed by a land rover here...

Post by MamIDdau on Dec 9, 2010 22:55:49 GMT
It was still quite good. The trailer was shaped like a sleigh, lights all over it so you couldn't actually see the land rover anyway! Music was LOUD though. Could hear it above OH's computer game, through double glazed windows and down the road...

It's intrusive, isn't it, as well as highly addictive! Back to the Stone Age, I think. |

Well done! My internet orders still haven't arrrived, so I haven't got much to wrap up yet!  |

Everbody gets the same card - it would be nicer to have a hand written one. What do you think?
