    There is far too much doom and gloom in the country. Its scary. What I would really want is that things would pick up. Some hope. I hope anyone who has fallen on hard times, especially those with families and young children, will have a good xmas and wont find the next few more weeks a struggle. The budget in Dec will probably make sure that a lot of families will have a poor xmas if it happens at all for them.

    The totally materialistic list of what I want for Christmas, no holds barred? An Alan Ardiff necklace (I am so in love it's not funny, I spent ages this evening bending a friend's ear in Kilkenny while looking at his stand, and the fact that he's there tomorrow evening and I can't be sickens me!), gym membership, a cross trainer and some weights, a new dress for the ball, and some very pretty shoes in my size that I can walk comfortably in without fear of falling over.

    (I'll be asking for book vouchers again this year though :))

    I'd also love a new life, but that's really not going to happen between now and then! Maybe in 2011. :D

    A car service, but finances won't stretch to it, so instead I'd like the Haynes manual for my car so I can do the oil/filter changes etc myself.. and maybe some axle stands and a good set of wrenches..

    Also +1 on the Iron Fist shoes, I'll have these please:

    hopefully I'll get them next week. I ordered them but haven't got an email saying they're posted yet.

    A miracle cure for depression and an eating disorder please >_<

    I know that's totally unrealistic though so I guess I'd just like some money and to have an argument free Christmas period :)

    I have those already - I'm wearing them right now! I got them in Schuh - I'd already have bought the digi skull ones if you could get them in Schuh as well but online is the only place I've found them. The teeth ones are great though - I've had loads of compliments :) and they upset some people


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,649 ✭✭✭Catari Jaguar


    I love these IronFist shoes from Asha. Only €50!

    Ford Consul

    Realistically, I dunno, I have everything, there's nothing I *want*

    More fish?

    Probably get some more goldfish.

    Really awesome christmas exam results. I'm looking for 5 A1s, a B3 and an A2. I would be thrilled! But I doubt it will happen :L

    In terms of nice things, I would love €70 on a 3v card so I can get fun stuff in the post for three weeks (I love getting packages!!:D) and a better hairdryer.

    And one of those alarm clocks that project the time on the ceiling, those are awesome!

    Where can I get a really really good xmas cake

    If you're in Dublin I can put you in touch with someone who makes them in her home, and they are actually amazing (outside of Dublin delivery would be the only issue, although she'd probably meet you somewhere if you're not too far away, but she's based in Dublin herself). I got a mini one for my birthday (it's close to christmas) and I brought it home. My mother cut a slice and I said I'd get one later. Later there was none to get - I got a bit ratty about that actually. I got a proper 9" for Christmas and that was gone before new years. We're not a christmas cake family, you can trust me on that. But the cake I'm talking about? Well it basically tastes like heaven soaked in whiskey and it melts in your mouth. Oh yummy, my mouth is watering just thinking of it!

    I don't know what her prices are like though, the 9" was a christmas present. I've ordered one 9" and two of the minis in standard cake, and a gluten free mini this year, but I'll get mates rates, so I couldn't tell you what it'd cost. She'll work around most special dietary requirements and her sugarcraft decorations are pretty - she can do plain if you like, or go more elaborate, but the more time the decoration takes the more expensive it'll be I'd imagine.

    I can definitely put you in touch with her though, just send me a PM! :)

    OOh, I'm adding to my list. I want to be three dress sizes smaller, and I want a new job and a new place to live by christmas also. I'm not at all demanding. :)

    I want a good set of sharp kitchen knives!

    And this isn't really a present, but I'm so looking forward to seeing my sister. She is difficult, impatient, demanding, often juvenile, petty and obtuse. But I love her and I only see her at Christmas and we're getting closer the older we get and I can't wait to spend a night having dinner and drinks and have her stay over at my house when she gets home and to introduce her to my cat :D

    Every body Pauses and stares at me
    These two teeth are gone as you can see
    I don't know just who to blame for this catastrophe!
    But my one wish on Christmas Eve is as plain as it can be!

    All I want for Christmas
    is my two front teeth,
    my two front teeth,
    see my two front teeth!

    Gee, if I could only
    have my two front teeth,
    then I could wish you
    "Merry Christmas."

    It seems so long since I could say,
    "Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!"
    Gosh oh gee, how happy I'd be,
    if I could only whistle (thhhh, thhhh)

    All I want for Christmas
    is my two front teeth,
    my two front teeth,
    see my two front teeth.

    Gee, if I could only
    have my two front teeth,
    then I could wish you
    "Merry Christmas!":D
