All Done!

[Caran]

For the first time ever I have done all my Christmas shopping in November!
I have also written all my cards.
You have to do something to get over the boredom of lockdown.

Well done Caran, now you can sit back & enjoy the countdown to Christmas!

done my online shop, sent off gift vouchers to family, cards written ready for posting in a couple of weeks, shame that i won't see the family this Christmas but hey ho maybe next year

[eleanor2]

You would normally go to them wouldn't you emmie, it's a real shame.

Why are people obsessed with purchasing presents/ wrapping presents/writing Xmas cards in November . ?

[teacake44]

^^ beats me the silly ruggers, nuts!!

[eleanor2]

Because they enjoy being organised I would think.

[eleanor2]

Why not?

[teacake44]

Oh, Caran, you're not in lock down, you can go out whenever you want.

[emmie]

i would eleanor, but they are going elsewhere this Christmas, and the other brother hasn't mentioned it.

[eleanor2]

Ah o.k emmie.

[emmie]

i wish he would invite me, id go like a shot. But i think they are in a family bubble and will have just a quiet one this year.

the only way you get online shop for nearer Christmas is to do it now. Sainsburys have only just released their Christmas slots.
