    I would like Georgia Salpa's tits in my face.

    I'll probably get a kick in the arse and a chase around the table

    Would love a 6ft tall blonde Swedish model, but that's as likely as winning the Euro Millions lottery and blowing it in one weekend on craic and drink.

    I'm a little baffled. I mean I'm pretty certain I'm not getting anything, but I'm ok with that. I mean I didn't think people really got presents off everyone in their families once they got into their 20's etc... :confused:

    So I got a foot warmer, which is basically a GIANT slipper for both feet, appearing in the shape of a dog.

    And other stuff.

    I wanted...well, draw your own conclusions as to whether what I got corresponds.

    That said, my feet are very cosy right about now...:D

    Happy Christmas!

    Once you hit 21, any present is a bonus. Its just for the kiddies. Us adults get just get drunk and stuff our faces :)

    I knew I was truly an adult when I first spent the six weeks before Christmas thinking about the dinner and relaxation...

    Now I just wish I had someone to do the exerting chewing for me...


    I still enjoy doing all my own drinking, though.

    Already got my present from my girlfriend - a huge beanbag which is perfect for playing the PS3 (which died last week and I'm getting GT5 tomorrow!) and a rugby ball and kicking tee. Delighted!

    I got nothing!!:)

    I also gave nothing.:D

    The enjoyment of the company of my loved one's is more valuable to me than any present.:)

    Well ya I might but that's cause they'd feel guilty and what's the point in that. :confused: I mean I could afford presents for people, but it's all a bit silly really, and I wouldn't want to put any one in a position where they feel they have to buy me something. especially since some of my family aren't so well off financially now. no point breaking the bank for it.

    I'll be getting my nephews presents after Christmas. Feel a bit mean not going over with something tomorrow, but tbh they won't even know.
