    Date for Late Late Toy Show is announced

    Was the Toy Show date officially announced or is it just speculation that it's going to be the first Friday in December?

    Hi everyone - long time lurker on this Christmas forum - you are all great :D

    Anyway, apologies if it's mentioned already but there are Christmas sweets in our local supermarket in Limerick!

    The big tubs of roses and celebrations. At the €8 mark at the moment - couldn't believe they're in already and they have 2017 BB dates!

    Just thought I would post so that you can cross it off the list. If I'm the only person that's seen them so far I will try to take a photo at the weekend ;)

    I have 5 email accounts on my phone. :D I'm with you though, I usually can't handle unread emails but I've been lazy for the last couple of weeks.

    Ta daa....as promised :D (newbie poster so hope I've done it ok if not please shout :o).

    Now €7 BUT there are these new pouch-ie things (you can just get a glimpse of them on the right) that are 500gm and €4 so maybe better value.

    Told my Mum but is not interested yet because the BB date is "only" March 2017 - and because she buys and stashes about 20 boxes "she'd never have them eaten by then" :rolleyes: :D.

    I have my first head cold, like a red nosed reindeer and a blood shot eye at present. Feel yukey.

    I used to get ill the week before Christmas. All the stress of getting everything done before flying home, then driving around Ireland to visit people. Hope Im just getting it out of the way now.
