Worst Christmas my three year old Jack got was a fire station from santy...he loves it of course but the bloody sirens on it make it a worst present for us to put up with...
There are three kinds of people in the world,those who are able to count,and those who can't...

floyd,

I have discovered a use for my present - a watering system for my plants when I am on holidays.   When the same young fella was 2 he had a talking Barney - no wonder dinosaurs are extinct !!!

OMG, Maryi that's priceless! Cheeky little bugger.

We haven't got anything too noisy in the house this Christmas, although the talking parrot is getting a little annoying but he's behaving himself well most of the time so I won't put him in the oven just yet. Noisiest gifts had to be mine - Guitar Hero 3 and Singstar rock ballads. We had a hell of a session last night. Wonder what the neighbours thought of me belting out "Alone" by Heart at full volume? Not much, I'm guessing!

Hi jen,

Would love to have seen that  - Most outragious thing I did was use the dancemat to muse, have to have some way of working off the mince pies !! If I knew how to programme the thing I would put something more in keeping with my age group

That is very funny Mary! with a sense of humour like that he will definitely get on in life!!

A couple of years ago I got 18 candles for christmas from my boys. It's now a family joke come Christmas, mother's day or my birthday I say 'and by the way boys I think I have enough candles to keep me going!'

Last year it was cookery books from the 3 of them and this year 3 gardening books (which I love!)  Me thinks they come up with one idea between the 3 of them!

After knocking down Guinness, Baileys and Jack Daniels, I still managed to ace through one of the tougher songs (Devil Went Down To Georgia). My singing, however left a lot to be desired as Mister Mister, Marilyn Manson, and Blink 182 were absolutely destroyed (or improved depending on how you see em!).

Fun night, we're next for hosting i believe :D

Lol....you're so modest Mr Neary! But I have to admit, you were smokin' hot with the axe that night. Better leave the singing to someone who's good at it, yeah?

And yes, next time it's your place.
