Aren't we all getting christmasy On the board there is a Christmas Tree Competition an Advent Calender and the Christmas Smilies are in place. If you want to go the whole christmas hog you can also select a Christmas Tree Background It's really easy to do and this is how to do it Go into your Profile then Modify Profile scroll down almost to the bottom to Select Skin you will see a drop down button which will show a list and choose any that are prefixed with Christmas.
Once you select a skin click on Modify ProfileYou can change your GWD skin colour any time you like depending on your mood Have fun, Chuckles

I went to Fenwicks Christmas shopping evening last night - what a bun fight. It's 20% off but you can't move one foot in front of the other. I got some Molten Brown for my sister, looked at the Ugg boots and the snotty assistant who seemed to be looking everyone up and down to see if they had enough money for her to bother with and left. Some school children were singing carols with their teacher at the entrance which was nice and Christmassy.

I love hearing the carol singers Jasmine, as you say they're very Christmassy. Missy you're having a rough time of it, hope you feel better soon.

Bought our wreath on the way home and then went to pay the AF cheques in so got some battery operated lights to wrap round the wreath.

The wreath and lights are now on the front door - I'm really pleased with them! I've got carols on and I'm going to write my Christmas letter.

Oh how lovely Jasmine, a couple of folks in my street now have their lights and trees up, it's getting very festive around here. I will write my cards at the weekend. Might put my little tree up this weekend too, it won't take much work as it's only 2 feet tall.

I thought I might start my cards this w/e too LG. I've finished our letter and will print that tomorrow at school! Might be being a bit ambitious though with it being the boys' birthday on Sunday!

Yes I do LG! The boys were still at primary school when I joined this forum! Their oldest school friend (they met back in Y1) is coming home with them this evening and they are all growing into young men. I asked my friend last night where our cute little boys had gone!
