Quite possibly the funniest thing I've read on these forums all year. Thank you for that

O well, my worth present for christmas was 2 years ago, when my parents gave me a puppy! I must notice that i am a student living in a rentable flat, and that time i already had a dog (Ka de bo), and having the second dog was my worst nightmare! Now i got used to it, but i will commit suicide if my parents that christmas would give me the third dog!

Its my own surname! really!

Yep. Although I was right happy with my Chewbacca cuddly toy that makes the noise when you press his belly Oh, and the Gremlins T-shirt was really good too. I'm really into my retro T-shirts, although my number one is the Haynes ATAT T-shirt. Awesome. Shows I'm getting older though that the softness of it (brilliant compared to most T-shirts) is almost as good as the Star Wars part of it

Worst present? I suppose Guiness stuff, although was still good. I basically have drunk Guiness for years but lately I heard that a pint of it is the same calories as a roast dinner (twice the amount of lager). Hmmm... So I decided to give it up. I was telling this to my sister in law when their present turned out to be a couple of cans of Guiness and some pint glasses with Guiness on them (nice). Then my mother in law gave me a four pack of Guiness with a pint glass (again nice), and a jigsaw puzzle of a Guiness pint (well hard as it's all black pretty much...)...

Cheers

I am 99% probably lying in bed right now... so don't blame me for crappy typing

Do you think maybe they're trying to tell you something?

I don't know, there's a lot you can do with a dead fish.
