Reply to: What did Santa bring you this year?

[MrsGoof]

I had an odd one.
I got laid off, an xbox 360 and to top it all off my wife gave birth to our daughter on xmas day.
I'm hoping for something more normal next year.....

Just think of the £'s you'll be saving on prezzies for the kid.
Congrats.

Easy.

Take the bulb out.

Sorted.

Ahh, but we dont all drive indestructable, and apparently immortal, Blue Volvo's ZG. I'm not sure the same approach would work on a "normal" vehicle

I got

a new duffel coat, the complete works of Douglas Adams and some white socks.

What more could a contractor want?

My sister is fast becoming renowned for giving totally useless (but not cheap) and irrelevent gifts. The past two Christmases have seen her give me first a pair of divining rods, and secondly a wooden abacus. This year however it was Mrs Ws' turn, she recieved a tennis ball lump of rock salt, albeit drilled to accomodate a tea light, but rock salt FFS!?

Cold urticaria, caused by stripping to the waist while soaked in sweat on a freezing cold night walking home from a concert. Missed two parties and a fair amount of sleep.
