Yes! Knew I’d make a difference one of these days 😂

Glad it’s changed, you know what I’ll be doing for my birthday next year!

Twonka It's this one. With the 20% off it works out at £22 20

Sorry Dad20 code for 20% off as shared by a PP.

The lego millennium
Falcon is on offer on amazon atm. Usually £150. Currently £107 but earlier today was £95 so may go back down

Thanks @Voiceofreason92

40PLUS gives you something off Look Fantastic, not sure if it’s 10 or 20% - it’s an influencer code from an instagrammer I follow (40plusnotgivingupyet). May help if you can’t find any others 😊

Many thanks for the 20% off Sock Shop code @Loulouli, it also stacks with another offer they have on - "buy 1 pack heavy metal boxer shorts + 1 pack heavy metal socks for £30 plus free delivery". So £24 + free P&P for 2 pairs boxes and 4 pairs socks in band braded boxes instead of £39.98. They have Motorhead, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Megadeth and Alice Cooper in the offer. Fun bits for DP's stocking!

( someone on one of these threads mentioned a modern day version to the old 'fashion wheel' toy. Can anyone remind me what it is?)

If you're in London then, Fenwick have branches in Bond Street, Brent Cross and Kingston upon Thames. I haven't been in years but always loved sniffing the perfumes at their beauty counters.

@Crackery my DD had the Melissa doug fashion design activity kit which gave me the fashion wheel vibe. She loved it. I think it was recommended on here a few years ago.

Harumika dolls advice please - would these be too young for DD11? Just remembered after seeing them mentioned on here last year. Thank you.

@noscoobydoodle thank you!

@HarryPfabfan interesting... and good timing... I'd been looking at - - Fashion Design Kit for Girls with 4 Mannequins- Creativity DIY Arts & Crafts Kit Learning Toys Sewing Kit for Kids- Teen Girls Kids Birthday Gift Age 6 7 8 9 10 11 12+ amzn.eu/d/1aDHntD

For dd . Had never heard of harumika. But they look much better as no gluing...

Does anyone have any offers or deals for the football top mystery boxes please?

@Crackery I bought my 8 yr old a harmuka set to try from bargain max there all really reduced too!

I like the title too.

Just gutted I didn't get some myself.

@Purpleheadgirl he will love this thank you!!!! I think I'll get it for him but make sure it something that isn't easily accessible, I've got to get it out for him and full on supervise him with it. Looks like something he will love!!

@HarryPfabfan I'm not sure, but I bought a couple of sets of the Harumika sets from Bargainmax for my 13 year old, they sent one wrong one though but refunded it no hassle. My DD wants to work in fashion design and has requested 'something she can customise' for Christmas. They do look from the packaging for younger children especially as it has 6+ in large font on the front - but... for a few quid I'm going to chance it.

@Purpleheadgirl that's brilliant thank you for sharing it!

DD used to have a Harumika set years ago.
You can supplement it by adding lots of bits of ribbon, trim, small pieces of different fabrics, lace etc if you're a crafty person and have any lying around

Jurassic Jim has got his fossil and mineral Christmas cracker reservation post up this morning.

Just ordered Lego formula one car for ds20 from Smyths - it’s reduced to £119 and with an extra £10 off bought it down to £109 which is the cheapest I’ve seen it! He’s going to be made up opening this on Christmas morning - the lad who never asks for anything.
now to decide on what Lego to buy ds16 ……..

Can anyone recommend a nice grown up aftershave for DB (40). He never gives any hints, and seems pleased with whichever I chose. He also requests a bottle every year. Last year I got Dior Savage and the year before some kind of Boss. I'd like it to be nice rather than cheap. I don't get much chance to sniff my way around the shops.

There is grinch themed hot chocolate on tkmax for the people looking for grinch themed gifts

Microfibre ones are excellent for this! Fold up small and dry super quickly.

Don't hav we this exact one, but Moun
