Wow, that's good going. FOUR trees?!

We're getting one this weekend and have to decorate it over the weekend too. Oh, and do a big shop for the following weekends festivities (a big pre-Christmas get together for 10 people) which will be at our place. Plus I should also get the last few presents and a fancy dress costume.... oh to be as prepared as you destresserai!

I'd better make a list!

I tried to place an asos order yesterday only for it to be declined (the horror) so I phoned my bank and was told that I had entered the flat number in the wrong address field, so the payment was declined.

so rather than

flat 1
1 random street

it should be

1 random street
flat 1

I mean WHAT!?!??!?!?!?!?!??!

Haven't yet reordered, but I will be later. Site is down at the moment. Perhaps they're sorting their address system. The mind boggles.

More likely sorting out their stock levels as yesterday was officially the busiest day for online shopping of the year!

Glad I booked my online Sainsburys shop early as I saw today they have no delivery times left in my area for the 22nd, 23rd or 24th!

My daughter asked today if she could have a tree in her bedroom - I said NO! I mean we have one in the porch, one in the hall, one in the lounge and one in the dining room - enough is enough.
