Too early? I have already had one present. Lorna paid for my new glasses as part of my Christmas present. She came in the other day from shoppng and said "Don't look in that bag"
Hoping for gardening presents although son John refuses to buy gardening things, John and Donna usually buy me personal things.
Like Caroline think it is too early to really think about Christmas.

We're going to Paris - again - before Christmas so that will have to do [rather nicely actually].  What I would like to ask for is a guarantee for no blight next year,  gentle rain every night and bright warm days!

Scary thought. I'm off to France for Xmas - in the Jura beside Geneva with my brother. It would be nice to have snow and maybe get to the ski slopes?

I'll have to start putting things together to take with me soon. Also get the Xmas cards done. I have a painting Peter did loaded in the computer and need to format it as a card and print it out. Now would be a good time. If I leave it till later it just becomes too much pressure.

I liked it in the days when Xmas began on Xmas Eve with putting the tree up and decorating it. Mind you the food preparations always start round about September but I haven't had to do that this year since I'm going away.

I'm planning to ask for a Kelly kettle. Has anyone got one? It sounds magnificent. Do they really work?

My brother has one and he loves it.
I'm thinking that perhaps a rotovator is a present too far, so maybe I'll ask for some leather gardening gloves  ;D

Have a look here Blue bird www.kellykettle.com you will see better than I can describe it. ;D
Well I mentioned the rotovator and BW said something which was unrepeatable :(  but I had a word with the kelly kettle Bro and he is going to let me use his. That man has every gadget I could ever want. ;)
