Actually, she's kinda right, except I was referring to the username being used.

When was that, 43 years ago....cuz it wuz. :p

Yup, that was the first time I got married.

Can I just say, ma dearios, that I opened this thread full of the joys of Christmas, being home, being full of salmon... and beer... expecting to get the drop on Merkins by being nearly 1.5 hours into Christmas Day...

And found it a hotbed of ISSUES!

Ah well.

I win because the Aussies are all absenty and I am the first Christmas Day poster. Yes I know it doesn't fit the general cuddly-feely approach of the rest of the message but hell - under the under-achiever I'm steel cold baby.

Oh and BTW my Mum thinks you're all wonderful because of what I tell her about you. Have joked that if someone turns up on the doorstep saying Sundae Girl sent them, she would be disgraced if she didn't welcome them in. She's semi-serious about it. Special love to anyone who has ever posted me anything - she knows who you are, as do you. But just by virtue of logging in, you are all remembered collectively in her prayers as "Cherry's friends wherever they may be."

Merry Christmas one and all. And hope you are as near those you love today/ tomorrow as I am tonight xxx

Naw, SG... no issues, just friendly drift & banter, as usual.
A joyous Christmas to you, too. :D

Well if she was kinda right, I might be also.
Merry Whatever Drax. bb

I am tempted, as a sort of Snark's Breakfast, to whistle everyone present a Happy Weasel Stomping Day.

Opaquely, UG

Merry Christmas!!!

*Applause* LJ and SG, outstanding! That put a big smile on my face.

Another thing that put a big smile on my face happened a few days ago. I kept meaning to post about it but have been in and out and doing the Christmas busy-busy:

I got a card through my door saying the postie had tried to deliver a package that wouldn't fit through my letter box. I couldn't think what it might be...I hadn't ordered anything on ebay and everyone I know who might give me a Christmas gift would be likely to see me anyway and have no need to post......

Two days after, I was able to get over to the depot and collect said package. There was a parcel with a card in an envelope, adressed to DanaC & Pilau...envelope said to open that first, so that's what I did. The card had a picture of a cock(erel)...My camera is acting up so haven't been able to take any pics but here's what the card said:

"Contents:
. One LJ memorial knitted cock
. One naked cock (for Pilau)

Have a Great Christmas and may 2008 be your year! "

*grins* Inside the parcel there was indeed a knitted cock(erel) and there was indeed a naked cock (rubber cockerel, squeaky toy).

It was totally unexpected and completely made my day. I was over the moon. Pilau was too and had great fun destroying the naked cock and spreading bits of rubber about the living room carpet :)

I only wish I could have taken a photo of him in action, playing with his cock, so to speak :P

Merry Christmas LJ and Merry Christmas to all you dwellars. A finer bunch of friends I couldn't hope to meet. This place gives the lie to the idea that the internet is damaging sociability. Far from it. You're a wonderful bunch of people and I hope all of you have a truly wonderful Christmas (Hanukkah, Eid etc) and that 2008 brings good things to you all.

x Dani & Pilau

Merry Christmas to all of our friends @ the cellar.
Love and Peace Terry & Becky:santa:

Hehe! Cuuute! It's the duet I've been hearing so much about! Great job guys! ...now I'll be all ridiculously giddy all day. :D

Merry Christmas to all of you from all of us.

Wow--and look at how much weight you have both lost since that duet was made! I think we need a new duet to ring in the new year. Merry Christmas, everyone!

Merry Christmas, everyone!
