What a lovely thought, Rehab.
I hope you are right.

Me too either way it should help her at school and for homework having a dedicated laptop purely for her own use.

I bought my very first YumYum from Waitrose about twenty years ago and I havn't stopped eating them since. In fact, I have put on so much weight, it has been truly life changing.

I guess we don't have to ask the question of "Who ate all the pies then LD."

On the add I believe it was thought provoking..
I have ordered 4 of my grand kids a Zennox keyboard for Christmas they are all taking piano lessons at school and thank god I don't have to live with them while they practice.

I suppose my own kids will be as mad as hell.
But I will put it down to payback.

Re: Christmas Ads

I've seen that one several times, it's a nice one, but do McD's really have that much carrot to hand?

Sorry but I don't know how to post links, but this is an interesting point of view which I, and I'm sure many others would go along with -
