Ermmmmm looks like I already had! I'm #482 it seems...

I've asked all my family for money for xmas in coins so that can go straight in the tub, it's also my birthday in Feb so will do this again as there is nothing that is more important to me than paying off this debt by Xmas 2012!

Now what I buy myself and ask my family to get me for Christmas 2012 is an entirely different story!!! :rotfl:

My 3 year old daughter was the same when we went, she hid behind my wheelchair and refused to talk to him shaking her head madly. I think hes a nice idea from a distance at that age At least when they are little they forget things, ive just avoided talking about stockings in bedrooms so she doesnt get scared on christmas eve that hes going to come in her room

To change font you need to click advanced and then highlight the bit you want to make bigger and change the number at the top from 2 to whatever you want

Hey all, sorry not been chatting much but I've been up to my neck in work trying to get everything done in time to finish until the New Year.
... Oh well, christmas is about family and that means taking the good with the bad. And there is always booze to get me through it... :rotfl:

Awww Jemma. It's ok that ur busy, I'm sure no-one else minds waiting for updates from you, I know I don't Sorry to hear about the family problems, it doesn't make it an easy time of year Why can't it all just be like when we were 5 again ey? I hope the booze, chocolate and the Snowman gets you through

Cute story alert!!: when I was little my parents thought I was scared of going to see Father Christmas but when I was old enough to articulate my point I was actually really worried about who gave HIM a christmas present, and i insisted I wouldn't go and see him unless we got him one to take with us. :rotfl: I don't know what happened to that sweet little girl.


I am going to go and see if I can find this thread now and make a nice post on it for the poor lady BTW, I have always wondered what a TROLL is on here, does anyone know?

A troll is someone who either posts a thread in order to cause an arguement or someone who will contribute to a thread with a reply designed to cause upset and disagreement - I guess it's just a case of looking out for the ridiculous comments and then either reporting them or ignoring them!
