Help, can't get into the Christmassy mood, usually by this time I'm bouncing off the walls with Christmas fever. It's this damn hot weather :cool: .

Trying to write my crimbo cards, can't be a*sed! It's not right writing christmas cards in the warm sunshine by the pool.

Need to go to the Ski slope for some snow fun :D . Then I'll feel better....

;)

if your homesick and cant get into the xmas mood.
then

turn the air con onto full freeze your nuts off cold.
open the fridge and freezer doors.
sit on floor next to freezer door for cold draught effect.
put on some xmas music that endlessly loops for days
close your eyes and start tearing up money whilst pouring bottles of ice cold water on your head.
now mug your self and have someone steal all your xmas pressies

see its just like home! :D

And these 3 are expert climbers I can tell you! If they are not at the foot of the bed they are asleep on top of the kitchen cupboard.
And.... Im sure they will be chewing it too as they are teething right now, but will sit back and be amused :D (Try to be)

I won't be in a Christmas mood until I step off the plane in Manchester, as soon as the freezing cold hits me................

Can't wait for my first slice of Christmas cake and egg nog :D

Baah bloody humbug

Missus has just bought a tree for AED600!!! It's 2.5-3m tall, and a real Norwegian jobbie. So will it fit in the house, and more to the point will the dog think he's just got his first indoor loo????
