    Probably get her a new Apple Watch, get her rings cleaned (oh err) and get her a bunch of flowers at £100.

    Not really. £100 is a fair amount for a lovely arrangement.

    As Ponders says, the florist we use make a really lovely arrangement for £100. Well worth it I feel.

    I get that but I try not to buy flowers for Mrs pud as I think they are a waste of money ...most I'd spend is 50 quid

    But I guess 100 probably gets lovely vase included ...women like vases !

    We have a couple of vases that we use.

    I’ll take the vase to the florist and ask for a festive arrangement and tell them I’m looking to spend £100.

    One thing will be guaranteed, the compliments will flow as the families come up for Christmas dinner.

    The florist normally puts the bouquet I buy on their Facebook page so they obviously rate it highly too.

    I normally buy Julie flowers 4 times a year, Easter, her birthday, our anniversary and at Christmas.

    There's a 20th Century Design auction coming up, some nice stuff there, maybe a vase or jardiniere.
    What she really needs is something to put logs and coal in for the new woodburner.

    You'll need an antique scuttle.

    Why not head over to Battlesbridge antique centre?

    What have you guys been up to today?

    I watched Klaus on Netflix earlier today. I'm not normally a fan of animated stuff, but I really enjoyed it and would give it 8/10.

    The kids actually started watching it the other night, but think they got distracted for some reason. Made some tasty "omlettes" today and toasted sandwiches <ok>

    "Omlettes" for the kids, just ham and cheese(even though my elder son wanted "green eggs and ham"), and for the toasted sandwiches, ham, cheese, tomato and onion. I would like to say that the toasted sandwiches were just with a bit of olive oil on the outside of the bread and put in a frying pan(with no oil) and pressed down. Not a toasted sándwich machine per se.
