    Merry Christmas, Reddie, and here's to Santa bringing you a gag for tomorrow (if you have to see SIL)! :rotfl:

    Family, eh? Can't live with 'em...;)

    Here's to having tomorrow night on your own and being able to drink as much as you like and curse as much as you like about said person, out of earshot of everyone else. :p

    Santa brought me a FM MP3 player - I didn't want an IPOD as I really like listening to radio and wanted something to listen to the same when walking the dogums! I got some dodgy books - not too sure where Dh's head was with those!

    Sister, who upset me, went OVERBOARD - a stunning necklace, fab outfit from Jigsaw, great scarf, a jigsaw of chinese noddles and tickets for a concert! I was very very embarassed. She got some money this year and obviously spent alot of it on pressies, was very generous of her. Her mood, however, confirmed the gifts were not by way of an apology...............however I am just going to take a step back from that one.

    Mum and Dad gave me some vouchers - bought new underwear in M&S sale with those yesterday........................

    So generally I am a very very lucky lady.
