What have you bought your DCs for Xmas (in pictures)? Xmas lovers only please [title edited by MNHQ at OP's request, ho ho ho!]

[SeeChooJimmy]

Following on from the tits up thread linking to nm piture thread by a another poster, I am braving our own on here and dawning a flame proof suit... will do each dd individually

Proud christmas lovers, feel free to join in.

coconutty just for you Merry Christmas xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

CheckpointSnarlee No, dont think your bullying at all, your not name calling or slating people into the ground like some x

Apologies Coconutty but putting a x looks cunty and wanky....are you actually having a fucking laugh???????? cunty and wanky

With the other people's financial situation, as a PP said, other's post pics/posts about holidays, designer clothes, money they earn etc.

fairgame thank you, although I'm too scared to put what I have spent on here for fear of more slaggy bullshit. I haven't paid full price for anything I dont think x

"coconutty cunt" ?
No need for that flame just because you're allowed to swear for a change!
Try to maintain the passive in your passive aggressive posting style, nobody likes a bully.

Honorary stop gloating with your clean oven when mines is filthy!

Look, again, there are always some with more and some with less than you.

I remember a "what were the last three things you bought" thread where someone linked to a 5k coat, 2k maternity dress and a handbag at around that price too I think it was.

My jaw dropped, but that's her life, isn't she entitled to tell us as much as the person who's bought three things from the 99p shop? Or is there only worth in life if its not expensive?

Likewise the property threads, I live in Scotland and I will never have a £500k budget for a house but I see people posting links to 500-600k houses on here. It doesn't occur to me to judge that, or think less of them for it. It's their life and their reality and believe me, they will have some down things going on as much as me, you or anyone else.

Let's try not to add to that eh?

It's like some people go looking for threads to be arsey on.

On the subject of spelling, I always get confused about 'through' as in 'he walked through the door' - is that right? It never looks right.

We didn't have much growing up, we got a main present (a doll or something) then some colouring books, an annual and a selection box. We always had a great time and I never felt hard done by.

My mum remarried when we were teenagers and had another set of children. She was then in a better position financially, and my younger siblings get loads. Seriously, loads. Games consoles, tablets, tv, expensive toys. Hardly any of the toys get played with usual end up going to charity shops to make room for the next Christmas. My brother was moaning because he wants an xbox one AND and ipad for Christmas, if he doesn't get both he will be in a foul mood Christmas morning.

There's a moral in there somewhere I'm sure.

I'm pretty sure parents with reduced incomes one year will work ?ith their children in an age appropriate way to make sure they understand that. Doubt any child will get up expecting 100 presents to find one.

RJnomore Voice of reason!

I admitted that I was wrong

vindscreenviper so flame cant bully but other's can?? How the hell does that work!

Picked up in a VERY bitchy manor because I use X...please!

very wise posts, all of them.

vindscreenviper not at all , if you re read i merely come up with a little ditty using words that the poster had already said , sense of humour failure perhaps ? as thats nothing compared to what i read on here yesterday and today

laura do you pity us over here, can you see what we have to deal with.

Honorary please delete that photo as I'm feeling very guilty about my dirty oven.

Please tell me you called the oven cleaning company to do it, I'm tempted to search out my local one on fb but I can my mum telling me off to do it myself

Knitted I am literally at the way some 'mums' speak to eachother....we are all mums for fuck sake....most of you speak to people like we are bits of shit you have stepped in!

IgnoreMeEveryOtherFuckerDoes give them a phone i get it done a few times a year its the best money ive spent.

There is a place called Am I Being Unreasonable and thats a dog pit one expects it there, but on a christmas thread in the christmas topic...Some of the same names crop up though across the boards I think they just want to pick fights.

You're right laura everybody should stop calling other posters cunts. I only saw flames post, so everybody who called her a cunt should stop too.

Funnily enough I said to my DH today we need to tackle the oven.

Maybe I will ask him to clean it for me and that will be my xmas present.

I agree KnittedJimmyChoos the keyboard warriors i call them. Its easy to belittle people over the internet.

I am literally at the way some 'mums' speak to eachother....we are all mums for fuck sake....most of you speak to people like we are bits of shit you have stepped in!

Oh the irony. Are you actually incapable of posting without expletives?

what I find wanky coconutty is when people don't read the thread and see many of stating we have picked up bargains.

Just hope that anyone offended by the word cunt doesn't reads your post. makes as much sense as your first post!

Im getting the steamer out to the oven tomorrow. I'm embarassed now.

vindscreenviper nobody called me anything was responding to the choice of words used towards another posters typing style , half sarcastic and half humorous in my response that was all :-)

Look it was bad enough before with people being cunty but if it's going to descend into oven cleaning chat I'm going to have to report you all.
