Really hideous tie (and it's not even silk)

Can't complain at all, really.
Well, maybe about the tie, but that's about what you expect from your Aunty.

I'll go and buy myself a new laptop as christmas prezzie and a Flat screen telly ... and one of those things from my clicky in the other thread should arrive pretty soon.

And also some classic French comedy.

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
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....
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 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.

Me too. Didn't buggering get them tho'
To be fair, I never asked...

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

Who drank the other half?

Universal Gift Vouchers (Queen's Sheets) and a bloody red tie with a snowman on it it that lights up and plays merry xmas - then got asked by my parents why I didn't wear it when visiting them...To be honest I'm getting more fun from my kids presents.

Boom! Boom!

And something that may cause distress in the work place and once I have figured out how to link my new camera to the computer I shall show you

damn fine sound and dead easy to use

and something called a Wii [which has left me totally fcuked] but is great fun

oh, and some f**ked up hippie bought me shares in a llama instead of a real present, so that's going straight back to the shop when the sales start

New trend: flog it on eBay.

"Mint llama! Vintage llama shares! WOW! Sisters of Mercy Bauhaus cure siousie"
