The gifts of the under arm spray, shower Jel and Socks and Pants, followed by biscuits and the odd box of Quality Street tells me that its no fun being an adult lol.
Santa also left me on the first day of Christmas
1 Almighty Hangover 2 inches on an already well established waistline 3 Credit Cards hit to the Max 4 Bottles of RENE 5 Black Bags of wasted food oh and a Partridge in a Pear Tree as I couldnt afford the Turkey.
Happy Holidays cant wait until November 2013 where I would have just about cleared my debt for it all to start again.
Sounds as though you had a good one matey. Love the socks and T shirt.
I got the usual collection of socks and jumpers but preempted an accross the board wrong pressies by ensuring that my son got me a game that I don't have time to play (Skyrim) and a DVD that I don't have the time to watch (Costner verion of Wyatt Earp).
Far more interested in my boys hoard of games (including the particularly brilliant Hitman absolution (Only took him 7 hours to complete though as he skipped the sneaking around for less subtle killing everything that moved with extreme prejudice... The crowds at the wrestling match and in China town could only be compared to the airport scene, "No Russian" from call of duty Modern Warfare!)) plus an M505 gaming mouse (nothing compared to your Razer Hydra) and a sidewinder X4 keyboard... Oh god, he's going to beat me even more easily in games now isn't he!
Glad you had a good one. I'm currently trying to outstare the huge folder delivered to me at 16:00 on Chrisstmas eve with a message saying. Have a merry Christmas, no rush on these as we're not back n the office until the 2nd of Jan.... Feels just like I'm working with the banks again, lol.
Shaun.

I am led to beleive that the concerning Tesco shopper replaces the cranberry sauce with Bread Sauce and then of course the 2 weeks of Turkey Sandwiches that follow Christmas dinner from the left overs which gets more and more dry with each passing day which is where the bread sauce comes into play again. You see Neil these Tesco shoppers think in advance and can foresee problems that us mere mortals just cant. I say mere mortals what I really meant was Asda and Sainsbury Shoppers lol.
My best present wasn't actually mine, but one I've stolen from my 3 year old... A Nerf gun. Has anyone ever tried them? I swear I was 8 again. He got a couple of them so we spent yesterday having Nerf fights. All went well until I woke this morning to see him standing beside my bed with a gun in my face laughing in an evil way.
So we went to the Trafford Centre to Build a Bear. This is something I don't recommend at Christmas it was mobbed and I mean mobbed and we are now £230.00 lighter.
Sounds as though Steve was mugged rather than mobbed.
Same thing happens in Games Workshop. They get your kids in with a paint a free space marine and next thing you know you're walking out with the latest £75 beginners box set wondering how you got from a free painting lesson to an empty wallet.
All I can say is thank goodness for the internet.

In fairness they paid for half of it out of their savings so it wasn't so bad. They also hold their value so we can sell them in 2 weeks when they are bored of them
