What’s in your basket this Christmas?
Yesterday we spoke with the lovely Gail from NSW. She has used Little Gulliver to sort out some of her Christmas shopping and grabbed some other gifts along the way. Recently her family has been suffering from the flu and she admitted she “couldn’t be bothered to think about getting out to the shops”.
Gail was looking for some practical and good quality gifts and was also happy to take advantage of our *flat rate shipping (*except on some bulky items). For Gails total basket she has paid only $6.95 shipping! (Our low shipping rates are our way of passing on a little discount – to thank you for shopping with us).
Here’s Gails basket (with her kind permission) and who she bought it for. (For more information about any of the items simply click on the picture to be taken to its location in Little Gulliver);
Thank you Gail, your order has been posted out today. It was lovely talking with you!
Just a reminder…orders received before 4pm are posted the same business day. Orders received after 4pm are posted the following business day.

Readers view – family meals in Europe
We travelled through Europe for 5 weeks
- staying in apartments and self-catering.
- we tried to learn to say ‘egg and nut allergy’ in each of the languages with varying success.
- Google translate is handy to print out allergies and add pictures.
- we looked up supermarkets close to each of the apartments on Google maps before we left, which helped with ease of supplies when we arrived.
- As far as choosing where to eat out when we did, it was a combination of exploring the local neighbourhood and using Lonely Planet suggestions – sometimes good, sometimes terrible – what is a great venue for a 20 something y.o. backpacker is not necessarily such a great spot for a family meal! Lol.

The Enchanted Palace Exhibition – Kensington Palace
A visit to Kensington Palace is often a must see visit when travelling to London (it was for us anyway)! I wish we were heading off shortly as I would love to see the Enchanted Palace Exhibition.
What is the Enchanted Palace Exhibition?
Its a unique tour through the state apartments which have been “enchanted”, following a map to reveal the stories behind seven princesses who once lived there (Including Princess Margaret and Diana, Princess of Wales). My daughter and I would love to have a wander through and admire some of the gowns displayed throughout and I guess the boys would enjoy the light show too! Entertainers around the exhibition will help you solve the clues to work out which princesses reside in each bedroom. There are also some kids craft activities, which can be fun for a bit of sit down entertainment.
Renovations
Plan your visit though, due to the current renovations only the State Apartments remain open. This exhibition finishes 3rd of January. The Palace will then close its doors before its grand reopening March 26, 2012.
Good for younger children?
Note, there is stroller access, but no lifts and a lot of stairs. Under 5’s are free.
