Thank you all so, so much. It's been a few days since I was told and I still can't believe it. I got my Christmas pressie early this year - and nothing will ever top it. It feels amazing.

It's so surreal to think that I beat cancer, I actually did it. Just can't get my head around it.

Great to hear a good news story SB. Delighted for you. ðŸ‘

I'm trying to decide whether to go to next sales this Saturday or not. I have niece&nephew's birthdays at end of Nov then 3 kids to get Christmas presents for and have niece's birthday at start of Jan plus new baby due in family shortly after that. I love getting bargains but effort getting up early for sales haha. If I had kids I'd definitely go and get presents while I'm in

Didn't go in it, but if you ever want Christmas every day of the year, a hotel in East Tennessee has Christmas decorations up all year round and looks pretty impressive.

There's a huge Christmas decoration shop open all year round nearby too!

One of the few places in town Dolly Parton DOESN'T own.

They will be lovely when they're finished. Do you have a retail or online shop?

Tiger had something similar last year, they were gorgeous! I bought loads of them to make gifts for the parents in the creche I work in, they were a big hit!! Hopefully they'll have them again this Christmas!

Awh that's a lovely idea. I've seen people use them for pictures and feathers inside for decorations which I thought was lovely. Of course I see that and I'm mentally working out if a bottle of Polish will fit in haha. May keep a look out in tiger again !

Did I do anything to offend people on this thread?

My posts don't neat near as many 'thanks' or replies that everyone else seems to get.
