If i have to be festive I'll wear shiny gloves, other than that mmmm humbugs...
*deeply saddened to have lost her Festive spirit*

You absolutly sure you want the festive spirit back? I've managed without too much of it for a few years, in fact, the only spirit I'll be indulging in this Christmas is probably vodka well, perhaps vodka and wisky well, the only festive spirits I'll be involved with this Christmas will be vodka and wisky and perhaps a little brandy well, maybe a bit of run possibly a little gin well the ONLY Christmas spirits I'll be seen with this Christmas will be vodka, wisky, brandy, rum, gin, teikalla, pernod, ozzo, well, maybe

*laughs*
No Martini though? Very restrained

I definitely want my Christmas spirit back, I'm normally so excited by this time of year but now I'm just depressed

This'll cheer you up... F98987?thread=230573&latest=1

Well, i do live by the old adage:
|"moderation in everything" no, that isn't true; I forgot the Martini! bod over Christmas : especially going back to my dads; leaving this Monday coming; so have to visit ALL the pubs I ever regularly go to when back home, and say hello to all the regulars in each, and the barmen and women, and of course the landlords and landlady's then, in the middle of all the Normal drinking haunts, I'll be forced to go out christmas eve; and struggle to find anywhere suitibably miserable and full of old farts for me to want to go there and, of course, shortly after is new year's eve

ermm... well i was hoping it'd be a link to a page full of compliments for me but as a second choice that'll do

You can get most fo those in one big bottle now 2legs, it's called Martini Spirito or something, it had martini, vodka errmm... potentially rum and archers too but I could have invented those...

: so why you not feeling very festive? It seems to worry you: I'm not festive that much (yet) this year, becaus eof all the stress of dealing with the s at uni though I normally* get a bit more festive when I get to my dads (I Have no decorations, tree, christmas cards anything, up in my house; as I'll be away over christmas at my dads) here; have some or Oh, why not some

*politely shuns the and makes ladylike gagging noises quietly *

Erm because my car broke and I'm not going home for christmas and theres no christmas music and I've been far too organised and wrapped everything up and sorted everything out and theres no pine needles for me to tread on... oh and for the first year ever, no end of term parties!

wqell I've been at uni for quite a few years, and never had a end of term party, ever actually, I'm now on my third degree, and I've not ever made it along ot my own graduations before : come over to lowestoft for christmas; its bluddy horrible but it has plenty of pubs and pine needles: I've done two presents so far : and I've sent off one christmas card. and i have, pretty-much included all the cards and presents in that list that I'll do this year

I'm sitting here making a Christmas tape for the car and it's cheered me up immensely. It's a whole year since I last heard the Pet Shop Boys' "It Doesn't Often Snow At Christmas".

But i don't have any christmas songs?
*mumbles*
Apart from the hanson christmas album

Christmas songs Nope I've not got any; though my dad has a few carol tapes I think sorry; I'm not much help, at cheering people up; seeing as How I'm perminantly either miserable or Pi**** or both

Just one card? Wow, I am flattered now (and feel really really bad that I didn't get yours sent off now) Email me your dad's number again, and maybe you'll get a call whilst you're there...

'bell

If it helps, you can with me about the fact that next year I'll be buying 'Baby's First Christmas' stuff...

well; two cards, obviously; you Bday card also : not to worry, : Its strange, but with pretty-much all my friends, we never send each other birthday or christmas cards, so Its nice ot have someone to send one to and thining about it, I will need to do another two cards; my brother and Dad, but I'll just give them their cards, as we'l be in teh same house both of u

Well, yeah, but I figured we were just counting Christmas cards

I could sing for you, 'bell? (take my word for it-- away! or just say 'No, thank you...' )

*grins*
No,no I want you to sing!!! If you've heard hanson then you'll be brilliant!

We could take the Hanson Christmas album out and burn it? That would make you feel better.

Well, it would make me feel better...

right, we will burn the album, then get all the resurchers on H2G2 to call you symultainiously and sing carols down the phone?

*thinks*

Actually, I sent you my phone number, didn't I, 'bell? Wanna call either this weekend or Christmas day? (I've info to make the call 5p a minute from a landline that I can't remember if I've sent you or not...) Then you could judge my 'singing' for yourself (though I do OK on carols, because I actually know the words! Though I'll have to do Teh 12 Days of Christmas because I've not had a chance to torture anyone with it properly since I lost my mom...)

If you want to get back into the Christmas spirit, don't read the poems in the post, especially not the Competition winning one

Doesn't Peregrin have "It's Christmas In Heaven" by Monty Python for you to listen to?
