\nWell, it\u2019s time for me to say a very happy Christmas to you, and as I write, I\u2019m still sitting at QVC late after my shift, still writing out Christmas cards! One day, I will get my act together\u2026 It\u2019s not this year! Hopefully by the time you read this you will have everything under control and sorted out.<\/p>\n
I celebrated the week with a couple of little meet-ups, including seeing my very good friend Gill, and we exchanged presents in a very hurried, ventilated trip at Costa Coffee in Surbiton! We vowed to do some lovely trips to unusual places in 2022.<\/p>\n\n
I did not end up going to the theatre last week, as I mentioned I think, but I have planned some lovely stuff between Christmas and New Year, see below. Also enjoyed seeing my son for a spot of last minute shopping before they went to his in-laws for Christmas this year. And Lolly Pop arrives late on the 23rd for ours in Surrey!<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/stories.qvcuk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Brad.jpg\")

Snippets<\/strong><\/p>\n Kaleb and me<\/strong><\/p>\n My little grandson is so funny, obviously I can\u2019t show you him on social media, because he is not a social media baby. But it was so lovely to see him and he was making little “agoo” noises. He is still utterly surprised by everything including his own selfie when you try to video him! I do hope he has the most wonderful first Christmas, not that he will remember it, and I will really look forward to next year when he\u2019s with me!<\/p>\n Daisy dog<\/strong><\/p>\n Dropped off some presents with my sister-in-law Amanda and saw little Evie and Beau as well. So nice to see my lovely Daisy dog, or should I say Amanda\u2019s Daisy dog! She is well at home and very happy and of course kept company by the little puppy called Beau. I didn\u2019t really do house visits as such, no cups of tea and all flying trips, for obvious reasons. But it was lovely to have a little walk in the fresh air with my doggie.<\/p>\n Deb’s hair<\/strong><\/p>\n Tried a new style this week, using the Dyson<\/strong> Corrale straightener<\/a>. I really like it. A bit more trendy than the curly whirly, don\u2019t you think?! We have some super hair styling products so if you want to get yours in good nick for the New Year, go here<\/a> to our hair styling tools, and go here<\/a> for all of our wonderful Philip Kingsley<\/strong> products, which I was using on that day!<\/p>\n Watch<\/strong><\/p>\n It has to be The Matrix, doesn\u2019t it? The fourth movie, Resurrection, is out in the cinema and I\u2019ve booked myself a little film fest on 28th, the day after the kids go back and I get my place back to myself again. I may feel like locking myself away and not having to do anything other than soak up some brilliant movies! The Kingsman is also out the same day, so I\u2019ve booked both of them! I will report back next week.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, as far as Christmas TV goes, how about the documentary about the late Prince Philip on ITV last week, or maybe yet another Christmas film! But your turn, if you have any recommendations, just leave me a comment below.<\/p>\n Podcast<\/strong><\/p>\n Just quickly to mention, make sure you listen to Alex Kramer’s podcast with Will – she has done so much! A really interesting, diverse, chequered history is revealed, you learn so much about your friends and colleagues when you listen to these! And well done well for making it to over 100 episodes. Looking forward to 2022! The new one will be with Kate Stephens, CEO of Smartworks, a charity set up to help women build their confidence, get the job and transform their lives.<\/p>\n Vlog <\/strong><\/p>\n Misty woods last week in Banstead<\/a>! What\u2019s it been like where you are? Fingers crossed it’s not too chilly over Christmas! Don\u2019t forget to follow me on my social media to see all the updates and behind-the-scenes videos. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n Book of the week – Will by Will Smith<\/strong><\/p>\n If you get some Christmas money and want a brilliant book to read, I highly recommend Will, the autobiography by this famous rapper\/movie star\/all round good guy. I\u2019m absolutely loving the audiobook where he includes some of his music and clips from his TV show the fresh Prince of Bel-Air.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t be fooled into thinking this is just a smooth sailing journey for this mega star. He had a lot of downs, especially in the early days. It\u2019s peppered with self-help observations too, and is a really, really good book for anyone who is feeling a little bit low, I think. I have bought it for a couple of friends, my son loves it, and I\u2019ve been telling people about it – always the sign of a good book! Really funny as well in places. Highly recommended! And a strong contender for my book of the year!<\/p>\n QVC top deals for the next seven days<\/strong><\/p>\n Friday<\/strong> (today) – go here<\/a> to see and buy what\u2019s left of the super new twist shaggy rug called Juno from Cozee Home<\/strong>.

Fingers crossed most of us will be able to enjoy it. And I\u2019m looking forward to all the new products we have to offer in the New Year, including a Twist and Shape exercise machine, which sounds like fun! Time to get sorted for my 60th in May I think! LOL. And thank you for all my lovely Christmas cards that were sent through to QVC. It made quite the display in my dressing room!
