Buzz Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 What I want: A time machine, or at least something that stops time for a period. What I'll be getting: Money, chocolate, chocolate money, probably underwear and a few items of clothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.funk Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 To be honest I don't really want anything I will probably end up getting some money and a bit of chocolate. I'm getting this for my sister though which I am really pleased about.

Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I'm hoping to get a nice relaxing stress-free week away from work. I know I won't though - the kids are far too excitable for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassbloke Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 There's nothing I need. I've let it be known that I'm not fussed about presents, but if people do want to get me something, charity presents (chcieken for African villages, etc...), Amazon vouchers or money would be very much appreciated. I don't want chocolate, especially After Eights, Terrys chocolate oranges or Benedicts Mints. books on cockney rhyming slang. Viz annuals. Novelty calendar or any calendar for that matter as I use my smartphone for everything. 2008 diary for the reason above. After shave. I've made it clear that next year, I'm only buying presents for people's kids and I'll use the money I've saved on tat for the grown ups to get them something that really counts.

Possibly because I am posting pointess crad on internet forums at half twelve instead of sleeping then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeS Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Not expecting a very material-heavy Christmas in the Stephens household this year. What I'm really hoping for is: - To spend some time catching up with one of my favourite people in the whole wide world, who I haven't seen in four months - To spend some proper time with my family after three and a half months at university - To have some good old fashioned, bring the house down-style gigs while all various band members in the same place for a change - To have all the tracks for my (other) band's first EP all nice and recorded And finally: - To drink enough Bucks Fizz at breakfast to get trollied by lunchtime, then eat so much I explode Perfect.

After all, we're grownups now, so if we need/want something we can get it ourselves, or if the money's short we can wait.

skywalker Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Peace on Earth, Goodwill to all Men (and Women) and an Oscar Peterson CD. If it snows that's a bonus, as is a double rollover on the lottery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
