Oooh you two did well didn't you!
I got loads of lovely pressies too including cds, dvds, books, chocolates, some piggy stuff, vouchers, some aquasaurs (which should appear in the pet section at some point!) and some monkey themed things and Kath and Kim stuff - all superb! It took us ages to open them all lol.
Everyone liked the gifts we got them too, so that was great!

My mum and dad bought chickens for quite a few people this year lol - and radios. They don't actually get them themselves, it's some scheme through Oxfam to generate funding in to the poorest areas. It apparently did pretty well this year www.oxfam.org.uk/press/releases/unwrapped241104.htmThese are the aquasaurs www.gadget.co.uk/product.php?xProd=543&xSec=10 - I didn't do too well with seamonkeys so wish me luck! Might have to wait until it's a bit warmer, as I think it's too cold at night at the moment and I want to give them a fighting chance! Here are a few of my pressies! My novelty monkey socks lol, my Christmas knitted pig, a piggy calendar and the cushions my mum made for me and fella. The Simpsons one is his, and the monkey one (which is the graphic from the 'contact me' section on my site) is all miiiiiiiiiiiiiine!

Oh you did really well Emma and Izzy ;D Aww your prezzies are lovely Treen, isn't your mum talented!! I thought I'd seen that monkey face from somewhere, at first I thought ,oh yes its identical to you Treen, then as soon as you mentioned the monkey on your contact page I realised I was mistaken lol Well hubby and I have a new phone that now shows caller display which is very handy when Treen keeps pestering me lol I have a few new cuddly toys, chocolates, a lovely piggy cup and keyring. Some tapes and a Simon and Garfunkel dvd. Also a birdie ornament, I'll take some pics soon

I thought I'd seen that monkey face from somewhere, at first I thought ,oh yes its identical to you Treen Oi cheeky! Although, really I'd be quite happy to look like a monkey - not sure fella would agree though lol. Oooh that's good (and I can easily nip out to the phone boxes if I'm suspicious about you not answering lol). How many times have you watched your Simon and Garfunkel dvd? Has it got holes in it from the laser yet?!

Eew, those aquasaurs are scary! I left my seamonkeys on my windowsill and all the water evaporated... I read about the oxfam thing, loads of people gave the guitarist from radiohead goats lol

These are sea monkeys www.sea-monkeys.com/html/aboutsm/whatarethey.html - they're a species of brine shrimp, nothing like as elegant (or large) as a sea horse! I'm going to try and grow my aquasaurs to a metre long and then set them on you two for being rude about them lol.

Thanks for posting the link Treen! They don't look anything like a monkey do they!
Aquasaurs! a metre in length! wow, do they have teeth or do they just give you a nasty suck lol Our goldfish take food from me, its funny when they catch your finger instead of the food lol

Nope, not much like a monkey lol - their name is somewhat misleading I think!
I don't know if aquasaurs bite or suck - you'll find out when I sent it round to yours to give you a kiss on the cheek though lol. I've heard people can do okay without heads these days.

Sorry I'm being abit slow Kathy, but what is a RAM? Okay, I will give you a serious straight-forward answer. Random Access Memory ... to make my computer faster. Got it yet or do you want some more clues before Treen pops in with her comments? Oh, my goodness ... we have some new smilies on board. Cool! EDIT: One gig of RAM is one gigabyte of RAM ... extra memory to make my computer speedy and to keep it from going belly up when I have 49 (a lie) applications open at once when I'm doing my updates.
