I haven't actually expressed any interest in a sable under the tree, but I have been a good(ish) girl and have a list, including some gardening goodies :)
Top is some fiendish Japanese gardening tools - I will be a plot ninja next year you know :nowink: :lol: I'm also hoping for some good old usefuls, like gloves, plus a voucher or two.
What have you asked for?
-
More Austin roses and garden centre vouchers, as usual :lol:

Well, I asked Mrs Growster, and we went and bought it a few weeks ago...
Still, I'll be able to watch my terrible old films in the privacy of my own eyes and ears!
Actually, we bought Mrs Growster's online a couple of months ago, and the paper will cost nearly as much!

I asked my OH for a crabapple tree and 2 spindles. They are already planted with a bow .

Well ive been after a poly tunnel for a while now but I don’t think I’ll be getting it as hubby wants to build it for me ??? :). At this moment in time I’d just like a full nights sleep & our 2 grandchildren ( who are living with us temporarily) to be better.

We tend to buy our presents during the year then when we unwrap them it's often oh, I forgot about that and there's always a secret one we buy each other as a surprise. All I've asked for is another cat calendar as there's nothing else I really want. In the New Year I'll see if there's a pair of French navy shoes I could buy to match the handbag OH bought for me when we were on our Scottish cruise.

Santa you really bossed it this year :D I used my fiendish new hand hoe today for the first time and it is officially the best thing ever.

Beautifully made and I fell in love when it arrived with the business end neatly wrapped in a bit of Japanese newspaper. Makes weeding a cinch as you chop and let the weight of the tool unearth the offending item. I dug holes to plant stuff and chopped suckers off the base of fruit trees, plus weeded several raised beds in no time. I got the weeding hoe as well but have not used it yet. There will be more appearing on the birthday list ;)
Were your pressies good :)

:lol: I got a Kent & Stowe razor hoe, it looks lethal :ohmy: but I haven't tried it yet ;)
but no roses this year..

Diddly squat gardening related, not even a book, lovely other things though
-
Lots of lovely hand cream, which I would never buy for myself. :) Mrs B

For the first year EVER, people actually listened when I said I don't want anything at all. I hate surprises, I hate having to pretend whatever it is was exactly what I wanted/needed so this year I finally got my nothing. I treated myself to some Christmas day shopping on the T&M website, today I got all the dispatch emails :D
