How did your Christmas logistics go this year? What mental notes have you made to do things differently next year? (Planning to revisit this thread in Nov of next year)!

For me -
I will choose my colour theme much earlier and *after* seeing what's in the shops.

I'm planning to make better use of online shopping and in particular some charity sites - esp for family members - rather than leaving it all to the last minute and trawling around on foot.

I'm going to buy the premium cherries instead of the cheap ones, and remember to order a ham!!!

I will shop for the girl's christmas dresses at the start of the summer season and not leave it until Dec.

I'm going to make my own rum balls or white christmas and if I don't I'll be sure to buy 2 packets of the shop-bought ones...one isn't enough with several lots of visitors.
