Countdown to 2016 - A whole extra day to wait...thread 2!

[MrsDilligaf]

Well hello avid countdowners....

A shiny new thread for us

Link to the last thread here

HairsprayBabe my local Range was putting the Christmas items out today, it looks like its going to be half of the top floor again! Cannot wait till I can get back in on Friday.

I did buy a few new halloween bits today, my DD is 5 so really interested in it this year. And as I put away the Halloween decorations.... I get the Christmas ones out. just so I can check if there is anything I need. Lights, it's always bloody lights

I love going to the range and looking at the bits and bobs. They have one of the best Christmas sections outside the garden centres.

Might have a nosey at The Range but Ooooh HomeSense had some gorgeous Hallowe'en things in........................

Were in full Halloween mode here, but thanks to bargain thread successfully managing to get some serious presents sorted too.

I keep dropping off this one now with all the other Xmas threads!!

Isn't it 104?!?!

Nope 105

Ah. Then we had it wrong yesterday!

And for the entire week before...we clearly lost a day somewhere!

This disagrees!

AAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhh

It IS 104

My stupid screen sometimes 'loses' half the page so I didn't see the previous one.

xmasclock says 104.

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I thought I was going bonkers then!

I thought I was going bonkers then

Nope, I have the monopoly on Bonkerism

Hey, it means we're a day nearer than I thought. And a day nearer to the Princessing 100 Days on S&B .

The princessing thread sounds interesting 70.
I am trying to become high maintenance having hit 50 so might drop in

Yes, join us on S&B Constantly us half centurians must stick together.

I can get Saga Insurance and Life Cover.

What is Princessing 100?

When you're a half centurian, do you get one of those spectacular helmets?!

My whole house now stinks of pickled onion monster munch now, thanks a lot Delia!

Still only have one more voddy to set up for infusion, and hopefully we get an early first frost so I can make some hedgerow Gin. If we haven't had one by mid october ill just pick and freeze at home.

Dose anyone join the poncing thread?

I was going to resist until 100 days, but ta-dah here I am.

legz I've booked onto a wreath workshop run by the local council - it was only £3 each. Might be worth looking into? Found it in a brochure called 'Countryside Events and Walking for Health', in conjunction with the NHS.

I've been on MN a while, and not come across the Princessing thread, but I don't think I've ever ventured into S&B. I'm starting to get wrinkles now, though, so maybe I should...

firefly You're only 3 days early thats not too bad!!

I can't wait for the princessing thread now so I will make sure I eat all the chocolates in the next few days

firefly I hadn't thought of the council, I'll have a look and see if the parks trust is running anything.

I think I ponced last year but I'm not that poncey

Cox and Cox have their Christmas range online. I know it's ££, but I love browsing.

Blue Their wrapping paper is stunning!

I bought this today and I'm itching to start it. A double whammy of Christmas and mystery stories. I just need to finish my knitting...
