Its that TMBG song, 'Do Not Forsake Me For I Am 1000 Years Old' (or something like that), but its not actually important, just thought it would make a good 40th birthday theme song smiley - biggrin

been making Xmas decorations here at work (I didn't want to, honest, but they bribed me by saying I didn't have to answer the phones whilst I did it)
sadly I can't cut in a straight line, paint in a straight line, or do anything else right
they are going to be c**p smiley - biggrin

Edward the Bonobo - Gone.

At least there has been one recent, positive Christmas innovation: the appearance in UK cities of German Christmas markets. Glühwein a-go-go!

Unfortunately, they don't do the pyrotechnic 'Feuerzangenbowle' (see A667857) - nor the rum-laced hot chocolate, which is the only beverage I know that is named after an African socialist revolutionary (Lumumba - after Patrice).

Ich wünsche Ihnen 'Frohe Weihnacheten!'

Cat-Eyes: No..... why.... ?

Huh?

My mum decided in my second last week of school at 11pm on a Thursday night to set up the christmas tree. Which I was not happy about the next night seeing as I was away on a venturer camp where pretty much no one sleeps, and I was already tired!

I did, however, survive (except for when I popped my shoulder out, but that's another story...)

Anyway...

Lalalala...
