[mrs.chappie]

You finished all your hand-made ones too, Joy? Wow ... you aint arf organised!

[trt]

BAH, HUMBUG.

[boxtops]

Hi bobbi - I still have to buy the stamps.... and I've only got two more prezzies to get now. If I didn't forward plan, I'd never do it.

[ttfn]

Well I must admit that for the first time ever I have bought my cards and 3 presentsbefore the end of September! I normally have a nervous breakdown on Christmas Eve with the present buying. Nice to know these months off work have not been wasted ;o)

[boxtops]

Yo ttfn, not seen you for a while - now I know what you've been doing, secret shopper!

[ttfn]

Hardly boxy - I only ever shop out of dire necessity. You may not believe it from my usually bright happy loving personality but shopping brings out the beastie in me. Shops are full of people who dither and recreate Friends United and have screaming children (usually not in tow) etc., etc., etc., And i won't even contemplate on line shopping tyvm. I need to go out now actually - if only I could find my brunhilde outfit.....

[anneasquith]

stop please. no c word until december.i hope ed opens the topic soon to keep you all together .

[boxtops]

You sound like me shopping ttfn - make list - buy stuff - pay - go.

[ttfn]

Family motto - Pop & Shop

Sorry anne - it is all bobbi's and boxy's fault

[anneasquith]

i know ttfn, you are blameless as usual, good sleep ?

[ttfn]

At last - someone who understands me!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yes thanks anne - all 2 hours of it.

[boxtops]

Go on then, I'll take half the blame for preparedness, but I'll leave the blame for excitedness to Bobbi - I'm just looking forward to not having to go to work for two weeks, we're shutting the department over the holidays.

[ttfn]

What a very good organisational plan boxy - bet you will enjoy the party season this year then. Ok folks I must Pop & Shop, ttfn

[mrs.chappie]

I'm not a big fan of Christmas. Far too commercialised, IMO.

[anneasquith]

oh dont shop and pop ttfn
