Wakey Wakey Sue.

Just seen you over in the christmas tent Sue x fingers and eyes crossed for yr interim goal,8 weeks today x
OMG is it really only 8 weeks til Crimbo where did this year go???

I've no idea where this year's gone either just had my sister on phone asking me to go Xmas shopping with her which means choosing what I want so I checked how long
Yes i was bit shocked Sue

Just done a major Amazon Christmas shop.

You sound very organised M! X

Ohh Merlin you're so organised I've made a start but only a little one, think most of mine will be via Amozon Sue

All the big rellies get hampers from us (hub makes sloe gin and I do chutney, fig salami, brandy oranges, pickled onions and honey mustard, plus a slab of local Bourne's Cheshire cheese; everyone seems to like the hampers!)
Littlies get whatever is appropriate for their age.
We have a family agreement not to spend a lot on each other.

I don't spend a vast amount, but there are 7 little ones.

No I don't spend very much these days but each year the numbers do seem to increase Lol
Penny your hamper prezzie sounds wonderful
I would much prefer that to some of the useless ones I get.
Sue.

If you can't eat it or drink it then you don't get it from me, littles excepted of course. In years gone by my Christmas tree was a thing of wonder, I spent hours making sure everything was exquisitely wrapped and had spectacular bows etc. when all the presents were artistically arranged I then threw about 6 bags of chocolate money over it all to give a 'treasure' chest' look to it all. Any little visitors were invited to fill their pockets with some chocolate money as they left, they all adored it and so did I. I still do all of that but it is a very much reduced picture, still lovely though, ah

Calling in to invite y'all over to the teeny tent where theres a campfire to sit round and lots of grub to enjoy while we tell ghost stories x

When we were kids I don't think Halloween was such a big deal but I do remember doing duck apple in a the washing up bowl and making lanterns out of cut out swedes. It much less commercialised back then.

Yep i agree..even when my daughter was a child in the eighties it was simpler x

Tonight we have been visited by two little skeletons bearing lanterns and small buckets to receive sweet offerings, closely followed by a group of scary vampire princesses with similar accoutrements.
I love my grandchildren! :0)
(They were accompanied by grown up minders so all were safe.)
