Without any bun fights, arguments about spoilt children, money arguments and all that hoo ha.

I need a bit of inspiration as I have the twitch

kryp - no they are not ad yes it takes a lot to occupy them day in day out lol plus they have very little toys suitable at the moment so kida stocking up if that makes sense

I take the approach that Christmas presents are to last the whole next year which is how I justify going overboard
As long as you aren't going without food in order to buy them then I don't see the problem.

Keep me away from amazon. DS1 now has a leappad 2 and DS2 has a suitcase of Paddington books

haha I eed to walk blindfolded every where as I keep wanting more !!! we have a pretty cheap xmas else where though , as there is o sata trips or fairs etc. no massive chocolate treats and all that. plus only 3 of us xmas day so food isn't costing much either :)

no were not going without food although I am going without a new bra :(

ohh how much r the Paddington books lol

A suitcase of paddington books? Pray tell? DD loved the first one (library copy) and I've been looking for something special to get her...

they were £5 on the lightening deal but I have a horrible feeling they've all gone. They might re-list them tomorrow or Friday so if I see them I'll post the link here

www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0007251947/ref=gb1h_img_c-1_8827_0c24bc9a?smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_s=center-1&pf_rd_r=02TJXM62BR8X1XDYE2E0&pf_rd_i=161428031&pf_rd_p=449478827

It was this. There might be room on the waiting list

Ah that does look lovely! I don't mind not getting it as it's picture books rather than the chapter books you can also get (DD is finally into chapter books now so keen to capitalise on that!) thanks for the link :)

Have to say that price is brilliant too

8.54 isn't too bad either though :)

Way too much!
