Re: Your wish list
Couldn't begin to guess Cas! Give us a clue.
I've asked for a weighty book called 'Exercise Physiology', and one on Sports Nutrition. I'm taking all this exercise for the MFB seriously after a year or so off. Fatherhood doesn't mix well with fitness.
I'll order it from Amazon, then get Chief to sign the front and wrap it. I did the same last year, forgot I did it, then got all excited when I opened the present. 'What you'd get me babes?' Oh yeah!

My Sis was a bit naughty last year and told her hubby not to bother with pressies for each other, but then went and got him something. On Christmas eve she put the pressie under the tree all wrapped up and when he said that he didnt get her one...the look of death she gave him was so damn funny. So anyway, he takes off and most things were closing but he got to a Music store...bought about 4 different CD's and wrapped them up and put them under the tree. The funny buggar only went and picked 4 CD's that he wanted...not her!! Serves her right, I told her

Re: Your wish list
My list is:
Snow on Christmas Day (and Christmas Eve if possible)
Our visa
And something I know is impossible so I wont say it.
Materialistic things, well I could do with a new MP3 player, some jeans, Angel 'Innocence) perfume, one of those fluffy dressing gowns because its so cold and I hate the cold, sketch pad and set of paints and pencils.
That will do.

Re: Your wish list
I've asked Santa to bring me a new MP3 player and Chanel Coco Mademoiselle perfume.
To be really really honest though, I much prefer giving gifts than receiving them and I just can't wait to give mine out.
Last night we took the kids to Glasgow to see the lights etc and all had a go on the carousel which was really lovely (only spoiled by the neds swigging buckie and making a**** of themselves nearby). Also, just been into town to finish shopping and the salvation army band were playing carols. That's it, I'm happy now.
OH is off out tonight with his mates so it'll be me, The X Factor and miles of wrapping paper - happy as a pig in ........

Nope, it would be a hug from my Mum, and it will be a year on Boxing Day at 2.40pm that she died.
And what I wouldnt give for that wish.
