crimbo pressies

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

New crimpers, which I was in dire need of. Possibly two pairs because the doting aunt that gave me them gave an identical pair to my sister who looked less than impressed :lol:
Bottle of Pure Poison from said sister. She's obviously applied brain-power, so I've not yet told her it smells like cat wee.
Money from most other reletives, exept one slightly confused uncle who sent me a bottle of vodka - which was quickly swapped for one of the boxes of chocolates that was sent to my sisters - y'know, the two that DO drink.... :roll:
Then spent a good few hours putting together and putting battries in all the toys my nephews and neice got. Youngest nephew was displeased at the lack of snow and shredded some polystyrene :twisted: One of his toys was a satanic remote controll Thomas the Tank Engine which has a button on it to make it growl and spurt red smoke. Fantastic. Older nephew was hinding in the airing cupboard from the talking teddybear that the neice got. He's an odd lad.

I'm not convinced. I always thought it was Gordon who was really on the Dark Side :twisted:
