Christmas is a magical time of year and I adore the festive build up to the sociable time of year. Choosing gifts for friends and family, the get-togethers and the decorations. Oh and the absolute deliciousness of Christmas dinner and the abundance of the whole festive food and drink offering. My favourite. What do you have for Christmas dinner? Turkey and all of the trimmings? Or perhaps something alternative? Stretched finances and the demands of buying gifts for everyone can lead to this being a stressful time of year for some. This competition could be the help with finances that you are looking for. A whole bundle of wonderful gifts to suit your nearest and dearest. The only decision is what to give to everyone. Hopefully there are plenty for all and you can gift yourself a few of these fabulous presents too!
