Christmas presents

Starting the thread 3 weeks early, I appear to be the recipient of a
Dremel.

Isn't the 'purchased' section of an Amazon wishlist a wonderful thing?

 

I fucking hate christmas and especially the tacky and common practice
of covering your house in brightly coloured flashing lights in the
shape of reindeer and related shit.

Some of my neighbours are such cunts.

 

Do what we do: 'Hanukkah starts tonight.

Hag Saméah!

I suppose we've all seen the Wizards of Winter Christmas lights on YouTube?

 

I actually rather like that. Possibly because it *is* so tacky.

 

I drove past a load of that today, ghastly it was.

 

The ones on the corner are having the annual bling off. You need sun
glasses to drive past.

 

I dunno why, but I always had you down as the one to have the biggest
light display on their house

I must go and take a picture of the one round the corner from me, it's
horrendous. Not only is it a 2 bedroom detached that's been
unsympathetically extended to be 4 bedrooms, they insist on covering
it with every possible light this time of year.

 

It's even being used in a TV advert at the moment.

 

Fucking _sublime_ rant.

I love you, Nige!

Pop round to 34 Jalan Terentang, Tampines Wood Estate, just outside
Serangoon. That's our old house, we had it when it was new.

No in the Chateau, it hasn't.

 

It's part of Runway One now, isn't it?

 

Mine was fairly restrained til I had a few shandies on Sunday and opened
a web browser while in possession of a credit card.

The Amazon bill I can understand, but the 110 quid at Sainsburys???

On the plus side, they have Dow's Trademark Reserve at half price (much
like last year). Non vintage, and hardly likely to compare with the 2000
LBV I polished off last week, but I'm sure the six bottles that arrived
this evening will slip down nicely.

Well, it is at WUNderland. I love Xmas, and now it's December, I'm
prepared to start thinking about it. Mrs WUN will have a big pile of
pressies under the tree, as will I (if past form is any guide).

We shall overeat, get pissed, light the fire and snore the afternoon
away in front of a monumentally shite film, surrounded by cool stuff.

Bliss.

"And in breaking news, conclusive proof that Jesus actually existed
emerged today, after his picture was found on a bank note in TOG's
wallet. Experts say the portrait dates to 29AD and looks a bit like a
younger Bear, only with a better beard."

34 Stretched Road, was it a long house ?
