So, what does everyone want for Christmas (or any other holiday that you celebrate 'round this time of the year)??
Oh, and one catch: nothing music related! (However, money is acceptable  ).
For me:
A comfy pair of snow boots
A season of Curb Your Enthusiam on DVD
The Aforemetioned money
And, what everyone has been waiting for: A digital camera.

Nice sentiments MF!
For myself - Vicky & I have the whole Xmas period off work, so a nice 10 day break - as for what I want for Xmas...
Weeeell
there's a nice little VDGG box-set out there, Thomas Harris has just released a prequel to the Hannibal Lecter series (but Clive Barker has still not released book 2 of the Galilee saga ) & a man can never have too many pairs of combats...
+++hopes that Vicky logs on today+++

you know....er....peace on earth and goodwill to all men
..........well most of 'em......I can think of a couple who don't deserve it!
I like it to feel special, but it's not gifts that does that really, well watching the kids/the beloved with their gifts is always great, and cooking and being really appreciated when I bring through trays of snacks, someone else making the coffee ....these are great things on Christmas day

Santa came early to our house.
Yesterday he presented me along with my morning cuppa and jammy dodger tickets to see the FINAL show of the current George Michael tour.
So last night we went up to Wembley and I was treated to the GREATEST, MOST AMAZING, and INCREDIBLE live concert I have EVER seen.
I know it's music related, but it's going to take a fair while to come down from this, it really was such an incredible show!
