    After last time my guy did it (at an all day training workshop) I keep a bottle of vinegar & water solution in the car now just in case lol! :pac:

    I usually have babywipes. Of course today I had none in the car.:rolleyes:

    I don't think she was too impressed having a bath. Whoever got her in the SS feel free to send her a bag of coal.:D

    Only a week to go till posting starts! :D I'm taking the fact my pm's have been very quiet as a good thing so hopefully there's no problems. My only problem is Dude discovered one of the SS presents I had stashed away and decided he is in love with it so I have to get a second one :pac:

    Our Secret Santa gift arrived from Zooplus this afternoon and has been thoroughly inspected by the feline quality control unit in our house:D

    Note from postie saying I missed a big parcel!!!

    I hope it's the one, although there is one other thing due too, but both for secret Santa!

    I saw some cute paper with cats in Santa hats today, I was in car waiting in traffic or I would have run in and got it!
    Might get there on Thursday, have to make cards too.

    Done nothing for Christmas other than this!

    Got my SS pressie delivered today. Not very happy with it to be honest. :( It's tiny and I will feel very mean sending it.

    It's the thought that counts. Cheesey but true ;)

    Very VERY hard sticking within the tenner budget for mine I tell ya...now praying (wishing very hard :D) that Royal Mail doesn't let me down.It was either pay almost £15 in courier delivery or £2.95 by snail mail. Couldn't get anything in a normal shop here which was crazy. I also downloaded the cutest image off the net as going to make my own xmas card too.

    Jesus im not the only one so! I went shopping in pet shops instead of online and i'm regretting it now, my box is ready for wrapping but it looks very empty.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,983 ✭✭✭Raminahobbin


    I went shopping online and still expect my box to look really really empty :( I went for quality (I hope) instead of quantity. I'm hoping to get time to do a free home-made gift to bulk it up before I send it all off!

    I have half my pressie got, must just get something to go with it at the weekend then its postage time 😊

    Next year :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,983 ✭✭✭Raminahobbin


    Delivery! Huzzah! I still feel disappointed at the size of the prezzie, but I have to keep reminding myself it was only a tenner we were allowed (even if I did go SLIGHTLY over) and that it's quality v. quantity.


  • Registered Users Posts: 824 ✭✭✭BullBauld


    I haven't had a minute to think about this yet. Switched areas in work and mad busy and have been on overtime the last 2 weeks also.

    Will try and get something sorted over the weekend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,003 ✭✭✭SillyMangoX


    My mam stole me boxes from work last night so now all I need to do is wrap them all out and ship em off next week :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,553 ✭✭✭mymo


    Collected my parcels!
    All my stuff got now, just a card and small addition to make.

    Just realised I threw out all my boxes last week!

    Will go in search of more tomorrow.

    Our SS package is on its way, I am so sorry for the recipent we have no imagination. (we are not used to buying for Cats)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,003 ✭✭✭SillyMangoX

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,553 ✭✭✭mymo


    Those photos are brilliant, 2 out of 3 cats here would disembowel you for trying that!

    Jake would be fine as long as he got hugs for it.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,412 ✭✭✭toadfly


    Ah sorry lads I haven't had a chance to even go shopping yet. Have an exam on Saturday so promise I will buy it and get it in the post by early next week.
