Following on from Jenni's post about christmas wish lists- just nosey about what what people got for christmas.
Mine was quite modest- alhtough I didn't want much anyway.
Johnny Depp didn't show up but I did get a Jack Sparrow mug! I got some dvds, a couple of books, a foot warmer (which plugs into the usb on the computer ) a box of goodies from Lush, a handbag, candle and some money from my parents which I'm going to put towards a foodprocessor.

From my ever romantic husband I got secateurs because I needed some!!!!  (he also got me creams and smellies but....secateurs??!! From Hannah I got a pink sparkley computer mouse and lots of chocolates. I got a few bath smellies and a beautiful scarf, a huge beautifully scented candle. Combined presents of chocs and bottles of wine and some charger plates and table napkins in jewel colours . Unfortunately Ian has just been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes so I am left with all the chocs (people who bought them for us didn't know.) Doreen xx

Doreen, he can eat some chocolate but preferably after meals so the fibre from the main meal slows down the absorption of sugar. Tell him to eat naturally and not get all these diabetic foods. They're rubbish and will give him the trots if he has too much of them. A friend is someone who knows all about you but loves you anyway!

Thanks Stewart. Yes we had read that the diabetic foods are not necessary and can give you the trots, it tells you that on the diabetes UK website .

HELLY,
ALL my boys (including hubby!) are swooning over your ring..it is beautiful...
They are all completely devout in their love for all things LOTR! I bought one son two lovely LOTR colour books...he's re-reading one of them currently.
I received;
Seven new books (!)
Clarins set
Decleor creams set (my favourite)
Hand made pottery set- a little cream jug, milk jug, sweet spoons and a salt bowl.
Loads of chocs
three bottles of wine!
AND
A Tom-tom!
Love,
Amanda
