I've just got back from town and thanks to a Florida trip in Novemeber, some online shopping and a concerted effort today, I've finished my Christmas shopping!!!!!!
That means I don't have to brave the hordes in town again before Christmas.......yippee[clap][clap][clap]
Mind you I still have to write the cards, wrap the pressies and do the food shopping[msnsad]

I still have to pay for them as well Leisa, they all went on the plastic[msnembarrased]
I am working every weekend in Dec including Christmas Eve and Christmas Day plus the bank holidays as well so that should be a nice little earner for when the CC bill comes[msnoo]

I'm laid up with a liagement damaged foot, so will have to do all mine on-line now. just flicking through the books. At least I can get all my cards written out early, you never know, might have it all done my the weekend, as I have nothing else to do. Also just got the flu as well. MY NOSE hurst and my back aches, and my hands hurt from the crutches.:( But I have one christmas present to look forward to Christmas and New Year in Florida.
So no Food shopping for me this year. I hate having to queue in the supermarket for a couple of things, when the queues are enormous at this time of year.

Managed to get about a third of my Christmas shopping done yesterday, man was it busy, people everywhere and they always seem to decide to stop right in front of me for a "chat".:(:D
I had a friend came up yesterday to go shopping and it was so busy in Leeds, I hate it at the best of times but on a SAT:(:( and everyone seemed so slow and chatting away as though there was all the time in the world.[msnmad]
Tree now up[xmas1][xmas1][xmas1]
