Aren't relatives inconsiderate having birthdays around this time of year? I have my aunt's on Saturday, my brothers on the 22nd and grandmothers on the 26th :eek:

Really, you would have thought they'd be more considerate *sigh*

At least I only have to go shopping once a year!

True, never thought of that. BTW watching newsnight (through tired, bleary eyes) and they just gave three percentages of 40ish%, 50ish% and 30ish% seems the BBC can't even add up!! :rotfl: :rotfl:

Really can't wait to get the rest of this year out the way. Am actually really looking forward to the New Year for the first time in ages. This sounds really really daft but it's feeling like the start of a new life kind of thing!

That's how I feel in my more optimistic moments
