PMSL! Tony! I'm really NOT that organised!! LOL! Just this year, we seemed to have a baby boom in the family, and a few more are about to pop out soon! It is really because there are a few really young ones, that we have bought for. You know how it goes, if you don't get for them, then their parents get in a strop!!
By next year, they will all have fallen into MY way of things! In other words, they will be convinced that the X amount of £'s which would be spent on their child, will be better put to use in the 3rd World!
AND PUTTING ALL joking aside, that is what me and my OH do every year! We 'reckon' an amount of money that one would normally spend on family presents at Xmas, we double that amount and do what we do! Some to the Sally Ann, to provide a Christmas Dinner for the Homeless. The rest, well, it's not that we actually HOLIDAY in sunny shores, ~ I was making light really, ~ but we go to other, more deserving Countries and do what we can at that time.
