No Karen still wracking the brain!
Well another couple of weekends have passed and I was back home last weekend in Germany so we went to the Netherlands for the day and I got a load of nice knick knacks for friends and some samshing stuff for the villa. I am off to Leeds this weekend to try to finish off.
It is my Mums 60th in two weeks and I am taking her and my Dad home to Germany for the week and the Xmas markets are in full flow in Germany by then, I am quite excited by it all. Also they are bringing the first German Xmas market to York this year to so whilst I am still here midweek I can have a touch of home on the doorstep.[beer]

Sarah there are dozens of Christams markets in Koln! My parents are actually staying there for 4 days when I go back to work. If you type in xmas markets Koln into google you will find a list. There is a huge market in the city centre, it's a few years since we have been to Koln Xmas market although I am in Koln every second weekend at the minute we tend to do Dusseldorf and Moenchengladbach, I am all excited just thinking about it all![xmas2]

I am proud of you Sandra, apart from only 1 shopping bag:(
Looking forward to Manchester next weekend. I just love cities at this time of year they give me such a buzz, Leeds and Manchester remind me of Glasgow in a way which is probably why I love them.
