| We normally just go for a tree (real one) which we havent got yet. Saw the B&Q advert for the stupidely large inflatable santa @ £65. Tempted to get one just to piss people off...lol Might change my screen saver to the snow one. And put the cards on the mantel piece. That'll be about it i think Twigman |

yeah don't worry, its cold out,and as any self respecting bloke knows - wait 'til it gets warm again - they'll come back down.

| i put the tree up the night before last as a suprise for my mom as she said she didnt knwo when theyd get done becuase she didnt have time to do them (too much work). Then they called her in at the hospital to work through the night, so thats when i pounced ! I was up till 6am (as i am usually, just not near a comp (what a strange feeling that was)) and got the mighty sum of 4 hours sleep. |
