    Nothing so far and what I can't understand is why Santa's sleigh is showing as currently being in New York:

    Surely we would get our gifts delivered before American children as they are not getting up for six or seven hours yet.

    Can anyone confirm?

    Few nieces and nephews due to wake in a few hours and I'm getting nervous for them.

    The Urban Decay Vice palette, La Vie est Belle perfume which I wanted since last year and a ring, from the boyfriend. The parents are getting us a weekend away which I'm super excited about. Had a family funeral yesterday so not a whole lot of present swapping done, just happy that people are well and in good humour.

    Special mention for my dad's wacky cousin who gave us a roasting dish, a neon yellow woolly farmer hat and a pineapple.
