I have to confess that OH has started on the Christmas presents - he has acquired a lathe for wood turning so many people will be getting beautiful, one-off wooden platters/candlesticks/table lamps/boxes etc. etc. I've also started planning the alcoholic presents ... MUST get down to the PYO fruit farm for some strawberries and raspberries.... |

I have done all the nieces, and one nephew, birthdays and christmas, for the next year. one nephew left to get, for birthday.
(All our lot have birthdays near Christmas, and seeing as we are away ourselves over October half term, and again at Christmas we won't be seeing anyone before Christmas, except OH brother, who comes next week) Girls are having 2 types of Body Shop gift sets youngest girl is 1 body shop and one crafting kit eldest boy is a watch and some books youngest will be hairy maccleary books, and something else that I may get today. Then I can concentrate on my own children, m&D etc. Not sure about OH's parents, as they always take back what ever I get them, and I don't like giving money! |

Well in our case, we have family staying next week, and they can take the pressies back, and put them away somewhere, and I don't have to post them all, so in this case no! We are away for October half term and again at New Year, when we normally visit down there. | ||

Always liking to try something new...... so..... what alcoholic pressies might they be??? as we have a pick your own not too far away?? |
||

Mostly fruit vodka (we've made some strawberry vodka recently that was very nice and we have a batch of raspberry vodka on the go). Our local PYO has redcurrants too, so I'd like to try that.
Have a look at this site - we might try some of these too

That looks very nice, this sort of pressie maybe good for my nieces!!! Thanks JC. Any other suggestions for pressies folks? | ||
