Hello, hello, hello!! I am back. Sorry for my little break I just had to get Christmas out of the way as it gets stupid busy in the pub, but now its over and I thought I would bring you a little post about just how lucky I was this Xmas (i.e. all my prezzies!!)
So here is the general gist of what I got.
My favourite Stranglings print from my parents. Now to find a frame and wall space!
No doubt you have that friend or parent who is incredibly house proud, who loves their home and loves to add their own individual touches. Perhaps one of these great gifts will suit them down to the ground and be a perfect addition to their home.
Your bound to have a trendy bloke amongst the people you need to buy for, whether its your boyfriend, husband, brother, friend or even your dad. Finding a cool piece of clothing that isn't pulled straight off the high street can be hard, I recently found Street Casuals who stock some cool edgy tee's and great fun basic items, these are my favourites
All items are available via Street Casuals, check it out for these great finds and lots more cool things for your trendy man.
Well Little Mix took the XFactor title last night, and with it broke the curse of bands on the XFactor!! I do like them but personally they weren't my fav act, but I wish them the best of luck, I think they will be great!
And this was probably my favourite performance of theirs! And it's from the final!
Little Mix performing Don't Let Go! They do nail this song!
So that means Marcus came in second. I think certain songs suited his voice so well and he was amazing! Then other times he didn't quite live up to the song. Now my favourite performance of his was "She's so Fine" but sadly I can't show you that video on here as XFactor You Tube has disabled the embed code (click here to see it) but here is my second fav of his performances.
Marcus Collins sings Higher and Higher
Amelia Lily sadly took 3rd place although she was incredibly gracious about it all! I was backing her to win so was a little gutted when she went out, but I think there may have been many screams of a fix if she had won, due to her coming back and HMV pre sale slip ups! But ah well! I think (and hope) she will still score a nice recording contract next year and we won't see the end of her (or marcus! Oh or Misha B!!)
But personally I think this was the best, most professional and flawless performance of the whole season (and it's one of my fav songs ever!).
Kelly and Amelia Lily sing River Deep, Mountain High - Enjoy!
So who were you backing to win the XFactor?
Are you happy Little Mix won? Will you be buying the single?
Now just see the XFactor US final! Gutted Drew is gone!! And the beautiful Leroy! (60 and still hot ladies!) Think it's gonna be Melanie and Josh for the final, love them both!
Although it may be winter and Christmas time, and gardens don't tend to look their best at this time of year a true gardener will be thinking about Spring time and all the new bulbs to be planted, seeds to be sown and general tidying that will have to be done when winter passes. So if you need a gift for a gardener take a peek at the great gift ideas I have found that will make perfect Christmas presents this year.
Over the next few days I will be posting up lots of fun last minutes gift guides for every person in your life. No doubt you will be buying gifts for all sorts of people in your life and everyone one of them very different from the others. So my guides will not be for a specific person but for peoples personalities and interests.
First up - The girl who loves fun jewellery (maybe your sister, best friend or girlfriend?)
