    Me Mam always makes mines - it's like a tradition thing that's gone on since I was 5 :lol:.. basically she's really into sewing and sutff so made these things with a loop of string for each day, then wraps up prezzies and hangs one from each loop. Used to be stuff like tiny toys etc - with the age thing now (16) it's stuff like eyeliner/nail varnish etc which is actually pretty good! One of those family things that we do every year :)

    I'd love a galaxy one though, :yum:, but you can't beat traditional things IMO :D

    None, but I do buy a big bar of Dairy Milk every now and again, so maybe I'll eat one of them every day until Christmas.

    Two of us who are staying up at uni to work like fiends after the end of term have Winnie the Pooh ones. Plan is we have them with our morning tea break.

    Not got one this year.

    It's better, because last year we forgot to eat them every morning and had a feast of about 13 after Christmas Day!

    I actually do have one now :blush:
    Lenny had two, a fairtrade divine one and a playmobil one.
    He has given me the divine one - i think its a bit boring for him. A bit jesusy.
    He wants to get right into the playmobil one, which ive just realised i have to assemble first :grump:
    Im not sure why he didnt want the chocolate one just for the sake of the chocolate, but thats Lenny for ya

    Yeah :(

    I was waiting on Mr Glittery picking me up outside Tesco and an old man dropped a tenner and didnt notice, a ned noticed though and was ready to swipe it so I shouted on the old man and gave him his tenner back. When I got home I noticed a bag of shopping was missing so Im assuming he took it. He picked the wrong bag though cos the bag next to it in the trolley had about £60 worth of Christmas presents ;)

    I think that the TheSite.org should do its own range of advent calendars next year, with a different member from the boards behind each door. The only problem is choosing which members to put on it, and which to put behind December 25th.

    Though as the person who came up with the idea, I insist that I be on the calendar somewhere, what with me being so widely-loved on the boards...

    Ooh look, it's a flying pig... :p
