    I'm getting the slight sense that you're a smidge excited about the Advents then ;)


    it's all fine and well being excited about them now, it's when it gets to December time and every time you come there's even more advents being added to the thread. With that being said, I'll still enter a shed load of Advents even if I'm grumbling about how many there are.
