We can reveal WINNER NUMBER ONE is...

Lisa Hughes who wrote this awesome poem for her hubby...

"5 years ago, at the altar with Elvis

As you did a shimmy and he swung his pelvis

You looked into my eyes and said I do

(to be fair though I wasn’t that tricky to woo)

I knew when we met that our lives would entwine

And a few drinks later, you would definitely be mine

I was certainly merry, I may have been drunk

But even through the goggles you were a bit of a hunk

How to Carve a Pumpkin

What would Halloween be without a carved pumpkin sitting on your window sill or outside your front door, grinning wickedly at all the trick or treaters?

In line with our fantabulous Pumpkin Carving Competition on Facebook, we’ve put together a step-by-step guide on how to carve the perfect pumpkin...

Plump for the Perfect Pumpkin

• First of all, head to your local supermarket or, if you’ve been brave enough to grow one, your pumpkin patch.

• Select a healthy pumpkin, not one with nicks, bruises or cuts. Scrutinise the stem, i.e. make sure it doesn’t feel too bendy. Also check it’s got consistent colour all the way around. Knock on the pumpkin skin like you would a melon. If it’s ripe, you’ll hear a hollow sound.

Win a Personalised Thank-You Stationery Gift Set

Let’s face it. Too often, many people underrate the value of saying “thank you”. It’s all too easy to get lost in the moment and forget to express your gratitude or think it’s worthless. In childhood, most of us were taught by our parents how to say those two magic words, but as we get older, for some of us, expressing our appreciation becomes a bit of a dying trend. Many of us forget to say it because we get caught up in the rush of daily life.

So now, folks, you can express your gratitude with attitude with none other than our Personalised Thank You Giftsperfect-a-mondo!
