I haven’t even started yet, but intend to go brave the rain today.

How about you? Are you organised?

I need to get my act together.

Shopping; no. Making of gifts and wrapping; yup! Finished yesterday. We are having a handmade Christmas again this year, no shop bought things allowed! It's great, we appreciate the gifts so much more knowing the time and effort that's gone into them and we all have random useful skills that we can use. Apart from my uncle who can't make anything lol so he writes an IOU for my Gran to walk the dog once a week for her so dog gets a long leg stretch. There are no small children in our family atm though so easier for us than most. I know kids like their shop bought stuff!

All presents bought. I would be getting very stressed if they weren’t. I loathe crowded shops and long queues!

I shall start wrapping today, but will be starting with my daughter-in-law’s birthday presents first as we are going to her party this evening. Really looking forward to spending time with them

I love the idea of a handmade Christmas. Will have to discuss with the family for next year.

Yes, weeks ago.

Not bad considering that I don't even celebrate Christmas.

Can't have my kids missing out though, and of course I like to make sure they've got preents to give out themselves

Most of it sorted thankfully as I don’t fancy battling the crowds the week before that’s no fun at all

When i worked in Cardiff i used to buy most things on Christmas Eve because the shops were quieter and it was very Christmassy and gave me the feels.

These days i’m boringly organised. I just have to wrap my mum’s presents and i’m done.

Did 80% of ours in the January sales.

Far better gifts for the money, good job really as it’s looking like an apple, orange and a lump of coal may be back in fashion this year
