Mrs TG bought her son (who is here with us for Xmas) a DS lite and the brain training thing. All I can her is various people constantly going 'red, red, blue, black' etc at the top of their voices (Mrs TG is a firm believer in shouting at inanimate objects) in scouse accents.

I may kill someone.  censored:

I know what you mean, I popped over to see the kids and grandkids and they have  one of those each, (the eldest 2) and they were yelling "Yellow" "Yellow" "Yellow". Like a stuck record. Still, result, I was invited to stay to lunch, and very nice it was too, and I still got home before Grumpy woke up, I can still hear him snoring as I type, (we are going through a rough patch, Doctor is refusing sleeping tablets, so he stays up all night and sleeps all day, whilst I am on the day shift.

I would not mind but I cannot fly both helicopters myself, and I want to see how they work when shot down. evil:

I got a 'grow your own perfect boyfriend kit'  noooo:. You know one of those things you put in water and watch expand - quite impressive if that is meant to be a man  lol:

However take it out and he starts to shrink and shrivel  cry:

I am sure it will be really useful  noooo:

All other presents were either useful or lovely - so no complaints really.

Well we wre very late, becuase we left late and Mrs Nick forgot to take their address with us, so we ended up in the right road and she knocked on a door. A bewildered and alarmed looking woman opened it and Mrs Nick explianed she had the wrong house and did the woman have any CHinese neighbours. SHe had the door shut in her face. I tried directory enquiries and discovered them to be ex-directory. So we wandered about a bit more till they saw us out of their window.  noooo:

Spring rolls, pork, prawns, crispy duck in pancakes. Not festive but very authentic. Conversation stilted as lady of the house spent the entire time in the kitchen (cooking fast and fresh) and Mr House had limited English.

We left and stopped off (briefly, but actually for four hours) at some other friends who had a houseful of pissed Norwegians, I know not why and no one ever explained. That was when the fun started lol:

As opposed to cooking your goose ~ if you see what I mean  confused:
