I have a Rio. They're pretty good. Got it at a sale on amazon, woohoo!

My brother downloads songs for me off Khazar then I put it on my Rio.

They always have someone talking to them there and they argue about how good/bad football games...Gah- Dixons!

(:)

I am giving...

My brother a WWE calendar
My mum some perfume or something
My dad probably wants a PC game like C&C as usual.
My parents give all my other relatives stuff which I dont really take an interest.
I'll give all my mates something edible, keeps them amused for five minutes.

I dont give much, although I didn't go through inidividual mates, but then my family usually field all of the relatives I dont see much.

What I like most about Christmas...

...mmm... watching new films/old films. Generally a lot of good films at Christmas. Crackers, food, those little sausages wrapped in bacon, they're fantastic.

Snow is good, and I always prefer Christmas Eve to Christmas Day. This year will be fun, my nearing two year old nephew will be excited.

It's just a holiday from emotions, it seems. We can all sit around and play board games, and get along. If it takes Christmas to do that, then it's a shame, but a chance for peace, one day a year, is fantastic.

But what I really like most, is the chance to be with everyone I love. I see all my friends, my family... but this year, I won't be able to be with them all. So I'm not sure if I'll really enjoy this Christmas. But it'll be a nice break.

It could be my last christmas with my parents back at their home in Cornwall. They are looking to move to Spain next year...

Shame that I'm a skint temp living in London or I'd be able to buy decent presents but it's the thought that counts. I think about presents alot. I don't buy them, I think about them and then realise I can't afford them.

However the best thing about Crimbo is not what you get, it's what you give: not materialistic things but tangible emotions not normally expressed by us stuffy Brits to our loved ones.

*Wahhh*

*Sniff*

*Sobs and shudders*

Damn set myself off there...
