KLAXON - IKEA have their gingerbread houses in

[hermioneweasley]

And some v cheap killer type jars too.

A few Xmas paper napkins but nothing else yet.

KilNer jar, not killer jars.

I don't have jars of pickled brains as trophies from my victims.

...or do I?

Well that's just typical. I went last week and they had nothing.

Oooh. Thanks. Did they have the whole Christmas range in yet? Think I'll wait a bit longer to be sure...

I have an ikea a few miles down the road, so I'm planning a trip on 23rd October (my next child free day).

Mine was setting up the Christmas shop yesterday - wrapping paper, decorations etc. Not sure how much stuff they had, but they were setting up a fairly big space.

My nearest one (Croydon) hadn't put up the Christmas Shop yesterday. They did have some napkins and aprons and also gingerbread cookie cutters (in 3D!!!).

The Swedish Food Shop had the gingerbread houses, gingerbread, gingerbread dough and saffron buns :)

If you're in London, and you're desperate for a gingerbread house, I recommend Scandinavian Kitchen close to Oxford Street or the Swedish Christmas Fair in the end of November where you can buy a proper brand gingerbread house that won't break as easy as the IKEA ones :)

Happy times for a Swede in London :)

Killer jars lol, think I might buy one for my nightmare of a Sister-in-law :)
