Yup I still do the stockings...

I do my mums, dads, older brothers, mums dog and OH.

My brother contributes to my mums a bit too.

It was my 1st Christmas with OH last year and he hadnt had a sock since he was a child so my mum bought him one and helped me fill it. Awww...

Yep I do! My mother refuses to give us a stocking but I get one from my MIL and FIL. They also give one to our little annie.

Yes i have a a stocking which has my name on it i have had for ages
it gets put up on the fireplace and dh puts small presents like jewellery etc in it as well all my fruit Lol

We always have all fruit and nuts in our stockings and the small gifts or money they also go in it its always been like that even though we have a bowl full of fruit,

Its crazy isnt it but at christmas every one goes crazy for fruit buying it i mean , I buy fruit any way but last christmas i bought like way to much dh eats it till it comes out of his ears Lol but i think i bought way to many

I get a massive shop at christmas and people say its only for a few days etc
but i get sweets and goodies galore the cuboards our ram packed

Does any one elsa go ott at christmas
Oh well its christmas isnt it after all Lol

We all have stockings! Wouldn't be Christmas without them, though I am going to suggest to my Mum that we can survive with smaller ones now - she's still giving us 2 foot long stockings filled to the brim, must cost a fortune!

Yeah, she claims it's because of my little sister (who's 22) would be upset if she didn't do it, but we all know it's her really wanting to!

We get chocolate coins and fruit, then useful stuff like face wash, moisturiser, manicure sets and cotton wool pads and then little presents. It's the only thing we're allowed to open Christmas morning, everything else has to wait til around 4pm.
