Ok, so before I start, and you all start (continue??!!)thinking I'm bonkers ...this is taking my mind off TTC, and it's working, so there is method in my madness!
I remember seeing in the November/December issue of House & Garden magazine, an ad for Christmas Crackers. They were around $40 a set (I think), and you could choose to have a minature antique style teddy bear or a minature replication of a European car ...amongst other things. It was a full page advert, possibly on a green background, from what I remember. BUT I (aarrrgghhhhh!!!!!!!!!) had a big clean up a few weeks ago before having a house full of visitors, and put my copy of the magazine OUT WITH THE RECYCLING! So, if one of you darling gems by any chance has, probably the December issue, could you have a squiz through it for me, and let me know where you can get these Christmas Crackers from? Thank you so much!!  
I'm planning a really special family xmas this year and I want lovely xmas crackers. Needless to say of course, I am already putting the money aside to pay for it all ...!   It's also DH's 30th a couple of weeks beforehand, hence the effort!
Ahhhh ...who am I kidding?? It just means I can make stuff that requires gravy or something and I can show off my ladle! 
So, all and any help will be gratefully received. Thanks everyone! ------------- Cuinn Lachlan 23.1.09 - 22:00 Antonia Helene 4.8.11 - 09:41 |

Thank you anyway Bombshell, and thank you too for the website link. It's NZ House & Garden (the thick one). But, hopefully if I send an enquiry to the website, they'll be able to help. Fingers crossed! ------------- Cuinn Lachlan 23.1.09 - 22:00 Antonia Helene 4.8.11 - 09:41 |

Thank you emeldee!
I also emailed to NZ House & Garden and they gave me some websites to try as well, so even if I don't find the right one, I can't say I don't have plenty to choose from!! Thank you again!! ------------- Cuinn Lachlan 23.1.09 - 22:00 Antonia Helene 4.8.11 - 09:41 |
