Bagpuss Report post Posted December 17, 2007 All really straightforward in our house this year......DS, who orginally asked for money, has now changed his mind, and wants pressies. The only thing he has asked for is a new Xbox 360 game he wants. Eldest dd only wants Pokemon Ranger DS game and a Littlest Pet Shop set, and youngest dd wants most of the Argos catalogue, but this is subject to change, at any given point, dependant on mood Got most of the pressies bought and wrapped now, thankfully, and so pleased I've been able to get the pressies they wanted, because some years I've left it too late. I remember one year not being able to get Buzz Lightyear and Woody for DS, the only things he wanted........I seriously considered stalking the Disney shopppers, and taking down a toddler with said toys Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and peaceful New Year. Love the Baggy family <'> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mumble Report post Posted December 17, 2007 I would like: Lee (without new attachment!) An adult-sized trampoline, but one bounce and my head would be through the ceiling, so ... A pair of anti-gravity boots, but this would probably lead to the same problem as above, so ... A space hopper!!! :bounce: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bagpuss Report post Posted December 17, 2007 The GPs (yes, GPs) want world peace, an end to famine, and peace on Earth Emily wants Wii games I want a week off work Our two piggies don't give a monkeys about world peace, they would eat the world given half the chance, and cause the famine ......they are beginning to look like pot bellied pigs I'd love a Wii (no, I'm not going to go on to make some crude comment about tena ladies anymore) ......heard you can't buy them anywhere now (Wii's..not tenaladies). Maybe in the January sales I could persuade Mr Baggy to buy me one, they look fab Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheNeil Report post Posted December 17, 2007 Just clicked....you got another piggie then? Yes. She's about 1/100th the size of Mrs Wills but can move about 100 times faster (which is good as Mrs I'm-so-lovely-butter-wouldn't-melt-in-my-mouth has suddenly developed a very nasty, jealous streak - she is now officially 'bad guinea pig of the week' ) Only a three hour drive to buy a ball of fluff that will fit in the palm of your hand Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mumble Report post Posted December 17, 2007 The GPs (yes, GPs) want world peace, an end to famine, and peace on Earth Surely if you've got world peace, you also have peace on Earth? Are you sure you heard them right? Maybe they said beans on Earth - well that would fit with an end to famine . . . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheNeil Report post Posted December 17, 2007 I hope they did - otherwise burying Mr Shuff was a very bad idea . . . I do keep wondering whether I should go and dig him up just to check that he wasn't just having a 'very deep sleep'. Probably a bit late for that now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe they said beans on Earth - well that would fit with an end to famine . . . Well that's what they 'meeped' at me. It could be that one of them wanted world peace and the other one wanted peace on Earth. To be honest they're not really interested in world affairs unless it's vegetable related (when I asked them how they thought we should achieve world peace/peace on Earth Mrs Wills started scratching her side and JoJo just ran away)(yes, they'd make great Tory MPs ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheNeil Report post Posted December 17, 2007 :lol: Why JoJo? Because that's her name. Emily has named her Josephine (shortened to JoJo). I've named her after the reel of extension cable (which, by a happy coincidence, is made by some company called JoJo - everyone's a winner) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As Mr Shuff couldn't swim, I don't think a deluge will have done him any good Gr, just noticed my irritating typo, of course, I meant to say 'peas' on earth! Well, I did bury him by the pond, and it does get very water-logged there, so ya never know. Stamping down on the ground with my welly might not have done him a lot of good though! ~ Mel ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jo4themo Report post Posted December 18, 2007 Hi DD has asked Santa for books (what a surprise! LOL) and is also getting a Teksta robot dog and 2 DS games. Our youngest daughter asked Santa for just a toy reindeer, some paints and some chocolate coins (was tempted just to get her that as would save us a fortune, but we have also got her a DS as she keeps on at DD to borrow hers). Son (age almost 3) wants almost everything he sees in the Argos book, on TV and in shops but will have to settle for a fireman's outfit, a toy farm and some wooden Thomas trains for his train set. As for me, I will settle for a nice quiet Christmas with no arguments from kiddies LOL! Actually, they aren't too bad but it can become too much for DD so she will probably spend most of Christmas Day with her nose in a book (apart from when Dr Who is on). Also , she hates Christmas lunch and only tends to eat the potatoes and stuffing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
farfalla Report post Posted December 18, 2007 Ds has decided he wants- 1. a game called oblivion (or something like that) 2. a new DS (his is now 2 years old and just hanging together), but will get this for his birthday 6th Jan 3. a new pokemon book (his from when he was 2 is fallin apart) 4. 2 bottles of lucozade ........ yes he likes simple things ha Luckily I got it all sorted in October, so haven't had to brave the shops!
