sunnyday Posted October 6, 2012 Author Posted October 6, 2012 Is it bad that i've bought a Christmas present already?? Oooh - now I'm the one who keeps saying that I refuse to think about yet - but guess what - so have I and I've got my cards Quote
Sox Posted October 6, 2012 Posted October 6, 2012 Oh gosh I'm going to run out of chocolates pretty quickly if everyone keeps asking. Oh well as long as no one asks for the hazlenut whirls-I'm not sharing them! Oh u can keep them!! Quote
Froglet Posted October 6, 2012 Posted October 6, 2012 I'll eat them all but you can have the hazelnut whirls. As for buying Christmas presents my mum always gets one before the 3rd September just so she can wind her sister up when she goes to visit for her birthday. Usually it's something like a pretty pack of tissues for a stocking filler! 1 Quote
Rea Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 Oooh - now I'm the one who keeps saying that I refuse to think about yet - but guess what - so have I and I've got my cards I've got all the cards I didnt get round to giving out last year. 2 Quote
louby loo Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 I've got all the cards I didnt get round to giving out last year. I have some of those too Quote
Froglet Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 I have the cards I bought for the children last year - because just after I bought them I discovered the ones I'd bought in the sale the previous year! The theory is that I'll write them nice and early and then no stress when we're all into Christmas concerts - not happened yet! Quote
Guest sn0wdr0p Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 Who ate all my bloomin chocolates? Quote
Froglet Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 Who ate all my bloomin chocolates? I might have helped a little. Due to a very stressful week I've given up my 'no chocolate in October' resolution. Besides it's my birthday soon and I can't not eat chocolate on my birthday! Quote

Panders Posted October 7, 2012 Posted October 7, 2012 I was asked to help out with the coffee ones - but I am also partial to the toffee ones , sooooooo I may have had one or two of those. Quote
Miacat3 Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Has anyone thought about their christmas party for children and also staff christmas do. We are looking for new ideas as staff already looking at me to have all the answers. They seem to forget that I'm trying to check that we have everything in place in case Mrs O walks through the door as we are now due and sorting out the new EYFS in setting. Quote
Fredbear Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Hi Miacat3 we decided awhile ago to have a social secreatry just for staff do's. It was becoming a nightmare and as you say always left to the person in charge to organise as well as everything else.[ why is that]. We are off to a local golf hotel that have a Christmas menu, drinks, disco and dancing. As for the children's Christmas party we have used the same guy for a number of years and although we have seen it and heard him many many many ::1aoops times, the children think he is fantastic. He does a bit of magic, balloon making, puppet show and is worth every single penny. Whatever you choose have a great time. :1b Quote
Cait Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Miacat3 - delegate this one!!!! For goodness sake, I'm in the same boat and that's what I shall do. I'm going to start asking myself "does it have to be done by me?" And if not, it's not!! Quote
Rea Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 I've booked a table at a local pub that was voted best in the area for food. No dancing or disco though, some of the staff and committee are real homebodies. Staff organise childrens do but its a magician we've used for years, music and games and food. Food is supplied by parents. Quote
Cait Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Is this an invitation to us all? Fantastic 1 Quote
sunnyday Posted October 8, 2012 Author Posted October 8, 2012 Is this an invitation to us all? Fantastic Oh yes, I hadn't quite cottoned on to that one - which date have you got in mind Rea? :rolleyes: Quote
Rea Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 (edited) Now you're asking, I cant remember, end of November I think. I can show you the menu if you like. You're all more than welcome, I know how you lot knock the wine back so at least I'll have someone to drink with once the homebodies have left FestiveFood.pdf Edited October 8, 2012 by Rea 1 Quote
