medusa Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I've not finished wrapping yet (and I've still got 5 cakes to ice before Sunday- eeeek!) but then I've just had a count and I got to 48 presents before I gave up- I think I'm entitled to take my time over wrapping that lot. All of the cards and presents that needed to go in the post went at the beginning of the week though- I'm quite proud of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
