OK, OK I know this is my 3rd topic in two days (PetrolTed is going to ban me forever at this rate, I would if I was me and he was him er, no if I was ....)

So: Mass of the Christ is upon us which is a time for receiving as we've all been taught.

So; Top 3 things you really want and top 3 things you just know you're going to get.

Hmmm Top Things I'd really like....

i) T350C
ii) A trackday season-ticket for 2003
iii) Shares in Bridgestone and Shell

Top three things I'm likely to get...

i) Some dreadful tat from a godawful northern 'gift' emporium..
ii) Very lardy indeed
iii) The right feckin hump with Slade.



If there's one thing I'm hoping for is a clear dry Xmas day so I can take the Tiv out in the morning and blow the cobwebs away..

Good reply CarZee - especially the issues you're going to have with Slade. Could I also add the song 'Careless ****ing Whisper' to that list please?

CarZee: does Mrs CarZee know that you are spending Christmas with Mrs Imelda?
