Valkyrie Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Who shakes theirs? Not me! And sniff - don't forget to sniff. But I did wait till Christmas morning - too excited to leave it any longer. And it was great - just like pass the parcel in case I undid the outside layer. And I'm still eating my jam. Rationed myself. I reckon there's 2 portions left. Who's making a straightjacket for Cookie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Koojie - if I'm your recipient I'll be well pleased. I like bright! It is bright & not neon isn't it? Cookie is just as normal as the rest of us here - it's everyone else who's not right. Is mind power - going in a trance & visualising what your gift might be allowed? I'm not a shaker, prodder sniffer. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 As ever I'll be travelling over Christmas although this time only on a boat and not into the US so I may wait until Christmas day to open it, I won't be breaking any countries import laws by not taking it into any of them.

Valkyrie Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Well it wasn't me - thankfully - I have found a difficult bit and did a bit of wrestling, but it's all in hand now! It was a bit like this earlier - Now the easy bit and I can breathe again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
