I would love some money this year because I am moving home soon and I need various items like a bed and sofa. I love reading so much too so some books or Amazon vouchers would be great too x

I would really like some photos in frames of all of my family. Simple but something to cherish x

A Crosley record player (my audiophile friend says she'll disown me if I buy one because the sound quality is apparently not great - but I am in love with the asethetic of them, especially the mint green and the velvet indigo.) For the second year running I'm obsessed with Swarovski's Stardust bracelets (something about the festive season brings out the magpie in me!), and I'd love a Pashley bicycle, which will definitely not be happening as our shed is currently packed full of junk. Maybe in 2017...

Hubby and I rent our home, and i have been here for 21 years. Now our landlord is applying for planning permission to build an extension, and carve up the current flats, making them smaller and altering them, and bring all the new flats in through what is now our private front door and our hallway. We along with the other tenants will be given notice to quit if they succeed, and the planning decision could be posted tomorrow even. All I want this Christmas is to spend one last happy Christmas with my beloved husband in our beloved home, and for a little while shut out the changes we may have to deal with very soon.
