Warm boot recommendations please

[Yorkshire Pudding]

I have realised that everything I would like to put on my Christmas list has been suggested, or at least influenced, by this forum.

 

So far I have on my list

 

a Roomba

a Kenwood Chef

a Cube and more chooks (not a lot of chance of this but if I don't ask, I won't get!)

a woodburner (already ordered hurray! )

 

and now - Troll beads.

 

 

You lot are bad for my OH's wallet! No wonder he goes whenever I go near the laptop!

[Lesley]

We don't really have Christmas lists but this year I do have something on my Birthday List ( Christmas Birthday!)

 

I'm going to have a Troll Beads bracelet........

[Egluntyne]

I find myself googling them rather a lot at the mo.

[Yorkshire Pudding]

I have asked for one as well! This year's Omlet Christmas 'must have'?

 

We have 'wish lists' rather than 'Christmas lists' - we don't get everything on our list!

 

The children are still thinking that Santa pays for all their presents, so their lists are real 'wish lists' - but they realise that they may get a few items but never everything... if they're good .

[jill the potter]

sorry to be ignorant but what is a Troll Bead bracelet?

[Egluntyne]

They are lovely.

 

**Troll Beads**

 

As someone said the other day...I forget who now....where would we be without google.

[buffie]

I have a couple of beads on my list

I think I must be the only person on the forum who is not keen on Troll Beads

 

I got a cube last year, so I am not expecting anyhting anywhere near as suprising & exciting as that.

 

I would love a slow cooker

& 'Lost in Austen' on DVD

& a bottle of Chanel 19

& a super pretty necklace I saw in Fatface

[kitbag]

I think I must be the only person on the forum who is not keen on Troll Beads

 

No im not either

[bronze]

I dont do lists because I dont tend to get much but I am willingly accepting money towards my trip to see my parents.

Oh and som e teaspoons would be nice.

[Christian]

Teaspoons here too! Where do they all go??

 

I have sent several emails as hints and have lost track now.

 

I remember -

 

River cottage diary

Environmesh

Spade door knocker - http://shop.nationaltrust.org.uk/products/cast-iron-spade-door-knocker/50/ Just love it!!

Country living/grow your own subscriptions

 

more chickens

[sarah-w]

Please Santa can I have a winning rollover lottery ticket so I can buy a smallholding and have lots of chickens

[Cinnamon]

Loving the spade doorknocker, so its going on my list too.

 

I have one like this at the moment (a much cheaper craft fair find!),but he is very old & looking rather sad now.

[chickencam]

Troll beads are not really my thing either, but I like the idea of a roll over lottery win for the same reasons

 

Not much on my list at the moment I'm pretty content

[GreenGirl]

Is the roomba that hoover that does it itself? now that would cool, just sit there and watch it (whilst i spend more time on the forum obviously )

[pepe]

I would like Mama Mia DVD

[Mrs Webmuppet]

My list is pretty short too:

 

some wellies ( for seeing to the chooks when its raining)

some swimming goggles

Rick Wakemans Grumpy Old Rockstar book

Rachel Allens Bake

some vouchers towards a music course I want to do

 

and (not that I have a hope of getting one)

A Cube

[Cooks]

well I did have a teddy that could go in the microwave on my list.. but my friend/boss bought me that when I came out of hospital... so I am running low of ideas now.

 

My list so far..

Troll Beads

Toasties (I hate cold feet)

[pistachio]

I love surprises. I might tell my husband not to get me a present this year because I decided to get a decent mattress today instead of a cheap one. Haven't heard back from him yet since I texted him AFTER I'd bought it. The stocking is the best bit of christmas - my husband is very good at finding all sorts of bits and bobs and I go totally mad with my kids stockings - everything from satsumas to fake poohs to mobile credit to homemade bits and bobs to charity shop finds and Oxfam alternative gifts. LOVE IT!!! LOVE CHRISTMAS!!!! Let's face it giving presents is the most fun bit even if receiving them is wonderful

[BarbaraJ]

yes definatly Omlet effect lol

i was asked from my kids what i'd like and i really didn't have a clue this year. i only get pressies from 1 friend, mum and hubby and my older kids. lots of relations but we only buy for kids.

 

Anyway i saw troll beads, went on here http://www.mememeaccessories.com/shop/ProductList.aspx?cId=113

brilliant service 24hr delivery no p&p

 

so bought the bracelet myself with some surprise cash and kids have choice over what they get, just asked for a colour scheme, not fussed which.

 

other than those would like surprises

[Guest]

I'm another not keen on the troll beads.

 

I do want

 

A proper Range cooker (off to look at Esse tomorrow - if I can "persuade" Mum - perhaps I shouldn't have let her buy a new car today!)

 

A Sussex trug

 

Egg skelter

 

More chickens...

[jackiepoppies]

What are those cooker things from Lakeland called

How can I get Eggskelters delivered without the kids knowing what they are

Can I collect from HQ and avoid postage? therefore giving me more to spend in shop

 

Jackiex

[pistachio]

what's an eggskelter? they sound ace!

[jackiepoppies]

 

PISTACHIO

 

I can't believe you have been with us since early Sept. and don't know what an Eggskelter is

 

Go to Freddies' link or the Omlet newsletter or shop (Ican't post you there 'cos I'm a pooter numpty ) Have fun

Top of my wish-list is some new wellies (my current ones have just spilt) and some wellie-boot socks.

 

I am easy to buy for, anything for the garden or the chooks and I'm happy!
