Sharing the Norfolk Snow

Thought i would share the seasonal Norfolk snow with you all. As i have many visitors and friends in far off places, I thought some seasonal weather would be good. The Wishing Tree has been quiet today, and i think many people have braved the elemements and gone into the city to shop, I think they are now wishing they hadn't, as reports of overflowing carparks and queues at checkouts fill me with woe.
So, has anybody ever seen a pair of kissing giraffes in the snow??
these little darlings come in 2 sizes and are priced at £15 and £12 so if you know anyone who needs one of these for christmas, give me a phone 01508 536008 or visit the website for more gorgeous gifts. or e-mail for other giraffe options iwish@thewishingtree.biz
Well I'm off home in a bit before the roads get too bad, hope you all get a bit of snow soon,

Thanx to all the Ladies

Hi all,
Just a note to say thanx to all of you who came to our Wishing Tree Ladies Cristmas Shopping Night. We had a great evening with lots of chocolates, to get us in the mood for the season of much eating. We woke up this morning to a covering of snow too, so now it is officially "the season to be Jolly". Watch out for announcments of our other special feature nights, we have a Childrens after school shopping night on Tuesday
2nd December, and we will stay open until 8pm on that evening, so you can come in straight after school or come later after tea if you prefer. We are handing out pop and sweeties for the kids and have lots of affordable pocket money gifts for kids to buy for their family friends and teachers. Much more fun than trailing round the busy city shops. Tell all yur friends and make it a date.
Also on the 11th December we will have our Blokes christmas shopping night, with beer and crisps etc. So no excuses for the perfect present this year, we are offering a free gift wrapping servie with this one. Has to be a date for the diary. So Ladies, get your men organised and point them in our direction, we will do the rest, and make your christmas wishes come true.
So, thanx again for the great turn out last night,
See you all soon
Love and Light
Olivia and Helen

We like a nice glass of wine

Fancy That!!! We share our name with a good wine.

The Wishing Tree 2005 Chardonnay (wine review)

This unoaked Chardonnay from Australia
is a pale straw in the glass
with a nice fruity bouquet rising into the room.
On the swirl, it is citrusy and pineappley
and in the mouth the fine acid is mouth watering
giving a solid foundation to luscious flavors
that seem short lived but then return.
The finish is lingering.

We love a good glass of wine, and more than anything we like to share a glass or 2 with our customers now and again. Yes you guessed it, another one of our delightful and fun late nite openings. This one is especially for the ladies, a night out with the girls, doing a bit of Christmas shopping, enjoying a nice glass of wine and a few chocolates. Oh and did i mention 10% Discount on all gifts and jewellery.
So put the date in your diary now and make sure you can escape from the T.V. or the ironing...... etc.

A Gift for every ocassion you can think of and more besides

Have you ever given a gift to celebrate a vasectomy? According to a new YouGov poll created by Spring Fair International, some people do. Other bizarre modern gift-giving occasions include celebrating a divorce, toasting a cat's birthday, enticing someone into the bedroom, empathising with the painful removal of an in-grown toenail and a pat on the back for failing an exam. These new gift occasions are a sign of the times; traditional points of celebration are being joined by less orthodox milestones.

As well as changing consumer attitudes, the survey reveals that rather than reining in spending, shoppers are inventing additional reasons to treat their loved ones. More than half of the 2,000 UK adults surveyed said that their budget for presents had not been decimated by the credit crunch, and some went so far as to say that the amount they spend on presents has increased. So just how much are they spending? According to the survey your average Joe spends £55.99 on a gift every two to three weeks, equating to a whopping £1,068 a year.

If you need a gift, for whatever the occasion may be, then we at The Wishing Tree can make your wishes come true. Did your neighbour get your cat down from the tree? How about this megga cat clock from catseye london
Did someone give you a helping hand? then how about this carved wooden hand. Whatever the occasion see what we can do for you www.thewishingtree.biz has it all
