Allotments 4 All

Well i am going to buy maw Broons Cook Book.   Â£9.99.   Told everyone I wanted it and didn't get one.  They never listen.  Also need a new pair of slippers  £5  so not asking for much. 

;D

I usually have to go out and re-buy some gifts for me, becuase my folks often ask for a list of what I would like, so I provide a short one.  Unfortunately, they often see something which is similar but not quite what I suggested and at half the price think they've bought a bargain!  Think sneerboer at tesco value prices!

Bit of a cheat....I bought my OH the complete set of  'Carry On' films on DVD for Crimbo, but as I love them too it's a bit like buying them for myself..... 8) ;D

I was given the same, just watched Carry on Abroad,  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
You can't beat 'em.

We bought ourselves a Wii - it's hilarious, we've got boxing, bowling, tennis, golf etc.

My Jon's so competitive though that he won't play me at boxing anymore as I beat him 11-3!!! :D

prink, daughter Alyson bought one for her children. Brilliant, children didn't get a look in on Christmas Eve when we had a family gathering, the adults took over :) As I was a great snooker player in my teens I am seriously thinking of going in to overdraft to buy myself one if only to play snooker ;D

Go for it Lorna, They are really good no matter your age, size, fitness or physical capabilities,  ma-in-law (75) found the tennis nice and gentle exercise, and is seriously thinking of getting one as well!!

A bottle of Penderyn Welsh malt whisky. Expensive to buy but worth it for the taste.

Post Christmas - new roasting tins!  Put them on the list but hubby didn't wan't to buy me "chained to the kitchen" type pressies  ;D

i'm ging to buy a cob nut tree as i asked again and again but nobody gave me one!! i made sure everyone knew i wanted it too :(
best gift i recieved was a proper wicker basket- like little red riding hood :D

oops it's Rosie, posting on Mum's account.
ps toadspawn, try aldi's and lidls for the Penderyn, we found a bottle there (pps be careful, that's where my dear departed grandfather's ashes went)

I've treated myself to a polytunnel 12' by 25'

Gonna have fun this next year.

I been to HMV today and picked up 'grow your own' on DVD for £7 !!

:)

In aldi's!?   (sorry,  just had to!)

Well I bought myself a DVD of 'The Victorian Kitchen Garden' - was buying it for a friend (who is over the moon with his copy) - I've wanted it myself for so long so ordered two!

am saving mine to watch when I feel a bit 'down in the dumps' just know it will cheer me - just adore the music that accompanies it....Emma Johnson playing Paul Reade's 'The Victorian Kitchen Garden Suite' - moves me to  :'( but in a nice way :)

You'll like that HP, I watched it on UK Style Gardens earlier this year and it acutually offered some gardening advice; as opposed to all of the modern gardening shows which either concentrate on garden centre makeovers or on flowers only  >:(

Enjoy!

I'm just about to order myself some fleece lined wellies from this weeks amatueur gardener (£24.99 in case anyone wants some!) and I'm also going to buy Amy Winehouse's CD.  I've been putting off buying it because I don't want to help fund her addictions, but at the end of the day she's going to take them whether I pay for her CD or not so I may as well get it!  ;D

Star Wars DVD's

To help me cope with my Tinnitus a new MP3 player,now all i need to do work out(my Walkman was child's play ::)) how ya work the bloody thing.

froglegs, Ray uses his for his tinnitus, swears by it so I hope you get it sorted, if he can, anyone can  ;D

I didn't actually BUY my Christmas present to myself. I filled in an extraordinarily long order on a Marshall's seed form and sent it to my mother to pay for.

After 42 years of inappropriate presents (eg. one year it was a bottle of FAKE Chanel No. 5) I decided it was time to take charge of the situation  ;D
