I LOVE Christmas, but would rather it stayed in December.

Top 10 toys for Christmas 2010.Originally posted by Alf W View Post10 weeks today and we'll be on the Boxing Day Bank Holiday and it will almost be over.
I'm going to get organised this year. Any ideas on what this year's 'must have' toys are going to be? Time to order in a load to be eBayed the week before xmas at a healthy mark-up. I always say I'm going to do this but never get round to it.
Stinky the Garbage Truck looks like he's on drugs.

And the traditional cruise ship norovirus lol!Originally posted by RichardCranium View PostI shall be with the Missus on a cruise ship with no phone, no family, no washing up, no cooking, no cleaning, no dealing with the rubbish. No bills, no paperwork, no ClientCo, no boss.
Just food, booze, food, entertainment, booze, food, more food, sleep, food and sightseeing. And food. And more booze. And some more food. With food on. Washed down with booze. And food. Then more sleep.
