My ten year old has been very difficult about Christmas and has said several times there is nothing she wants for Christmas. She has spent a lot of time looking for ideas but found nothing.
She has just bounced in super excited and said she can't wait for Christmas as she won't feel so cold if she gets the hot water bottle she has asked for...
About a month ago she mentioned she quite liked this hot water bottle in M&S www.marksandspencer.com/harry-potter-hedwig-hot-water-bottle/p/clp60516055 I asked at the time is that something you'd like for Christmas and she was non-committal. I've realised now that's because she wanted an element of surprise.
I've fessed up and told her I didn't get it for her and as she didn't do a list for Santa he won't have got it either (pretty sure she doesn't believe but plays along for her younger sibling). I can see the disappointment all over her face and she has quietly gone off to watch a Harry Potter film.
It's out of stock everywhere, but Bromley (and I've been through tons and tons of stores). Is there anyone local who would buy it and send it to me Royal Mail Special Delivery? I will of course cover all costs by BACS transfer or PayPal (friends and family).
I'm desperate to get it for her. Typically she hasn't made it easy!
