Hey hope you've all had a fab day with the ones you love...but i'll cut to the chase...what goodies did u get?

i cant complain, my parents got me my wedding jewellery from Swarovski and a videocamera as a joint present for us both to use at wedding and on honeymoon.

my beloved h2b got me a white gold and diamond locket, lion king bluray and as a special bonus he won a prize draw online with carphone warehouse and he decided to give it to me as an extra. i've been curious for weeks! turns out better than i could have imagined, its a motorola xoom tablet pc, i love it!! *spoiled much!*

    H gave me beautiful silver and moonstone earrings, the song book of "Wicked" (will now annoy the neighbours learning the piano parts) book on the history of Jerusalem (see tv series of same name) and a print that says "SURF MORE work less". A great sentiment.

    Happy Custards!

    Oooh I am loving some of your goodies, but especially the PaperPanda piccy!!

    I too have been spoilt, especially considering H isn't here and hence this isn't Xmas yet.. My real pressies will arrive in Feb 2012.

    I had a lovely party dress, a Kindle, Jimmy choo hunter boots (have returned them... boo) and hunter welly socks, a lovely handbag, and 3 pandora charms, some Jimmy choo perfume and a video camera.

    Most precious of all, I had not one, but two calls from my husband, and the biggest hug and kiss from my 11 month old god-daughter! I also got to see my 4 year old niece open her pressies and I got a good 10 hours with my brother, who i've barely seen since me and H got married in August!

    Oooh great hauls people. Love that print best though!

    My mum got me and Marky an Xbox so Mark was very pleased with that; because we're very tight on cash right now we agreed to just get small pressies, so he got me some grooming stuff I really wanted, thinning shears, a smock, a new comb, and my sister got me more grooming stuff too for showing next year.

    I also got Mary Berry's British Bake Off book; woo hoo!

    I'm chuffed to bits! Considering H had said he wasn't getting me anything, he actually went and got me a Kindle (WHOOP!) and the new Sarah Millican dvd (amazingly funny!). Mum, Dad and the in-laws gave us cash plus mum got me some silly gloves and filled them with my favourite chocolate bars. H had the Lost blu ray box set off me, plus a herb chopper thingy and a "grow your own herbs" kit as a silly present.

    Ooodles of bathing goodies a la Lush, Soap and Glory, and other random bath goodies!

    Tons of munchables including two boxes of champagne truffles, ferrero collection, tons of Haribo, mucho walkers thai sweet chilli sensations, and...wait for it...four huge jars of my favourite chip shop pickles from a local supplier who stocks all of our Glasgow chippies!!!!

    A gorgeous clock, and a beautiful photo frame, and lots of Yankee Candles.

    A wonderful sparkly necklace from my Secret Santa ?

    Champagne, candy canes, chocolate coins, two bottles of v. posh wine, a gorgeous cheeseboard.

    That's about it really. Me and H2B imposed a strict *no expensive presents* rule this Christmas with the wedding and respective Hen/Stag weekends so close now, so no perfume or jewellery for me this year...next year though ?

    I was really lucky - OH got me some lovely silver earrings which I had seen but said I would go back in January to get as I didn't have enough money left this month and Nikon Cool Piz camera in purple (my fav colour and the colour scheme for the wedding!). My other camera hasn't been working properly for ages and he knew I wanted a new one. He also got me a case and a memory card to go with it and even screen protectors - thinks of everything! Everyone else pretty much gave both of us cash as we are wanting to get a camcorder for my cousin to use at the wedding and to take on honeymoon. Think we've picked the one we want so we're ordering it today!
