Wenchy - any suggestions for Mrs TMR? She's perfect in every way and says she has all she has ever wanted. I'm thinking of buying her a Lllama, as that might just throw her a tad!
I have an excellent suggestion...  whistle:

Mrs. Barmand has bought me a new motorbike and polished my helmet...  whistle:

So far I have bought her... um...

...


Nothing.

Buy her a widescreen TV and a pair of Mr Magoo glasses.  whistle:




Note my self control and lack of obsessive pe(n)dantry in not picking on "Barmand"
I mostly despair

Look for Amazon alternatives nice and simple.  Has he got the Thomas Harris novels, ipod.

Or you could get yourself a volume control fitted and give him the remote!

Thomas Harris! Thank-you!!! Done and dusted.

Personally this year I am recomending jewellery, original and one off pieces from http://www.etsy.com

Thanks for that link ~ Mrs Snoopy will be most interested as she is looking for outlets for her own stuff.

I would like to have: -
  • no family arguments
  • no tat
  • things on TV i have never seen before
  • to cancel friggin hideous new year celebrations
  • not to have all the best chocolates in the tin eaten in one day and then have the rest hanging around for months
  • not to have to cook
  • be allowed to forget what I've done and said when I'm drunk

There - simple really  lol:
