I’m doing things a little differently this time - if lost then see message 2 on the first page for the codes/info collated from previous threads (to save slow loading for those using phones).

Hope this works a bit better and please give me feedback Grin Thanks

we’ll need to start renting storage facilities to hide all this stuff the rate we’re going

Surely it depends what you want. I don't want a kindle cover or a mooing biscuit barrel so both posts are equally irrelevant to me. But I don't mind them, because I know some of my posts will be irrelevant to others and I like to help others find what they need if I can.

Thanks LaTrucha - I did have a quick look on EBay before ordering but the only one I could find which looked the same quality was even more expensive than the Cox&Cox version. If it was for me (or anyone other than my very fussy mum!) I would probably have gone with an EBay variety.

BUT I did order from EBay a white spotty cellophane wrap - looks just like the snowball one on Cox&Cox - for less than half the price than the Cox&Cox version when you include postage. So compare Cox&Cox with EBay

f you can get away with it you could have the Xmas duvet cover under a normal one then whip off the top one. Less kerfuffle than a complete swap

Now then, Reastie are you reeestie or reast ie? I don't know how I should be saying it in my mind

I'm actually after a cow biscuit barrel. £50 was my budget, so great find not obscure at all!

Want a fox biscuit barrel but I am not sure what it would say

Now this was emailed DIRECTLY to ME

I have a Vertbaudet code that is £15 off a £20 spend and you get a free baking set. It's only for the Winter collection! but includes WC sale stuff too, and there's a lot of nice stuff in it reduced.
Code 5915
