IT'S HERE: MERRY CHRISTMAS 2007!

My ideal Christmas Eve and Day is a white snowy cold one but on Boxing Day I would like to fly away to sunny Florida[msnwink]

We're the opposite Julie but I know what you mean as I like the run up in the cold with the shops and wrapped up to the ears for the Xmas markets. Also getting into our finery for the Christamas Ball season would be strange in the sun.

I have to admit though that I just love escaping to the atmosphere in Florida just before Christmas, especially (MoM). Must also be something to do with drinking Champagne in the pool on Christmas Eve into Christmas morning[cheers]

Like many, my parents won't travel to FL, so we Christmas here. Working in an infant school the children are already excited and we're planning the nativity play. The children are all excited at the parts they are to play in it (I teach Y2). Wrapped up my presents today - just two more to get! Turkey ordered and looking forward to a rest. My youngest, Olivia is 12 in December so have to plan her birthday as well - cinema (Fred Claus to get in the spirit) and 8 'sleeing' over. [msnwink]. Both will have roles in our church during the Christmas services... I love Christmas and can't wait to choose our tree and decorate the house.

Yes I suppose I still have 4 weekends to do my shopping [msnsmile].

[mizzy]

i'm doing a lot of shopping online again this year, with the radio on for christmas songs

i've got it all sorted in my head, i think [msneek] hopefully i'll get away with just one trip into town

i know what you're thinking "bah humbug" and i'd agree, it's soooo not like me at all[msncry]

[Cruella DeVilla]

Hey shoping on line is cool too Marie, I always have a wee nosey to see what's available. Infact I "window bought" about 8 pairs of shoes today on one sight! Don't get me started on my other addiciton as I am almost cured (EBay).

Also just back from the supermarket and I managed to slip somemore German goodies into the trolley for the American suitcase, the trick is trying not to eat them before we go, only failed once so far[msnwink].

One trip into town also sounds good, I try to avoid shopping in Dcember where I can. You should go down into York as they had a Xmas market there last year too.<blockquote id="quote" class="ffs">quote:Originally posted by canarypam

I'm happy to be your personal shopper Pamela, it would be even better spending someone elses money! (My biggest wish is someone would let me do over their house, now that would be fun)[^]
