Shopping with the girls...

Thursday is my day off at the Library and I will be using to go and get some Christmas shopping and decorations. A couple of us are heading down in Holly’s car (isn’t it just perfect she adores Christmas with that name?) to Paula of Farnell near Brechin which is between Dundee and Aberdeen somewhere (so you can tell I’m not a driver, can you?) I'm told that it is jam packed with Danish decorations, and really lovely individual and unique candles. I cant wait to get another couple of things ticked of my lists for Christmas.


Speaking of that I got an absolute bargain at Molton Brown yesterday. I’d signed up to the email newsletter and got told that if I did a teeny tiny quiz I’d get a free large bottle of shower gel (even the samples are good for stocking fillers). Its normally £17 and you did need to buy something to qualify. Seeing as The Husbands favourite aftershave is Black Pepper-its so yummy if you’re thinking of getting some-I thought I might as well buy it now and get a free thing! It arrived yesterday and smells so yummy I didn’t want to give it away, but it was free and full size, and will be a really nice present for someone….and if its not claimed by Christmas Eve, im getting my mitts on it!

Hi Sheila, Thanks for stopping by and leaving a lovely comment. How did you find me? My sister lives on Scotland's east coast ~ her blog is Life At The Gables, which you'll find listed in my rather long blog list!
