Here we go new thread. Sorry for awful title!!
Hello,

Diege, Hope DD1 got on well. I competed in gymnastic competitions too. My sister was in the 2000 Sydney Olympic team but then got pg with my neice so had to pull out. I would love to get the boys into it but DH always looks like this hmm when I mention it.

The boys both have chocolate advent calendars but DS1 has one that MIL got him last year that has 25 pockets. So now I have to find 25 things to put in them.

Hope everyone is well.
Still grining MOOS grin. Have just been for a walk past the new house, trying to look inconspicuous as I peeped over the fence grin.
Too late for the calender tip-off I'm afraid! Have succombed to simpsons, HSM and winnie the pooh ones <sigh> I have lovely memories of the picture ones as a child, and being genuinely excited to see what the picture was every day. Think the nature of niggles is that they do come and go, so nice to have a day off!
I've got some non-choc calendars this year, I found them in Clinton Cards - I think they always have them in but they sell out fairly quickly.

No more niggles today and I don't feel as heavy as yesterday. Ho hum.

Are you still ing diege, you must be so pleased about the house!
ooh GINGER, your afternoon sounds lovely. Are you taking the babies too? (is that a daft question? blush) Def more my kind of thing too than a wild party!
Think playmobil times 3 may be a bit chaotic TINKS grin As long as they get choc they're happy. The only place I found the non-choc ones this year was the charity shops (new of course!).
DD still not back from gym with dh - think they're 'taking advanatge' shall we say and having lunch out hmm

Hi there

ooh fingers crossed Moosy!

LOL about advent calenders. Non choc ones are really hard to find these days.

my dad bought DD an advent thing with 24 little pouches on a string that we can fill up each year. Not that she has noticed it this year but its an attractive decoration too!

Off out for NCT xmas do this afternoon. We are going for afternoon tea at a posh hotel near here. Not so much a wild party but definately my kind of christmas do.
Err, scrap that non-choc advent calender idea...if I want a quiet life it's cadburys all the way from the response I've just got from the dds angry
Hi TINKS! You've just reminded me about advent calenders; thinking of trying non-chocolate ones this yers for the dds as I think they're much nicer. Not sure how well this will go down though!
