So school ended yesterday and although it didn't end too christmassy... it still ended never the less!

As usual (well, for the past two years now) a small group of us heads into town on the last day to exchange christmas presents and this time it took us all (bearing in mind there was only 5 of us) a whole four hours to get everything sorted! but it was fun! (who doesn't like christmas shopping for other people!?)

Me and Mark even went on the carousel that they had in the centre of town! (Everyone else was too chicken! But we didn't care, we got some manly horses called Nightshade and such! Ruff Ruff Ruff!)

So, if you really wanted to know, here's the lowdown on how cool my friends are! Souter Mouter bought me a Star Wars Episode IV Poster so now I can make Chewbacca noises whenever I see this beast on my wall! Unfortunately however, Souter did not come into town with us and I couldn't buy him a present in return :'( (Well, I will definately buy him one! but he prolly won't get it until after New Year!)

Following the cool poster tradition, The K-man got me the famous Jessica Alba Sin City poster that we tease him for having! I'm sure it's probably won't be Chewbacca noises i'll be making when I see this on my wall! *Rowr!* And for the K-man, me and Steve combined forces and got him the Sin City Board Game! (That was the end of the Sin City love-fest for us!)

Stee went all cool on me and got me Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 1 which i've been trying to lay my hands on for a good long time! The episodes that I have watched so far are like the love child of Seinfeld/A Hanheld Video Recorder! And in return, I bought Stee Wallace and Gromit (3 Cracking Adventures!) and Jimmy Eat World - Believe in What You Want on DVD (I have no idea if that is also an album! I have no Jimmy Eat World hardcore experience!)

As we walked into Waterstones I start complaining to Mark and Steve about how they never have the Bruce Campbell Autobiography. Mark, unsure what to get me at first did manage to track down Make Love! The Bruce Campbell Way in that very Waterstones! and what i've read so far has been hillarioum! In return of course, Me and Steve pitched in to buy Mark Seinfeld Season 4 (which we watched that very night!)

Lastly, Kev being as rockin' as he is, bought me the uber cool Dire Straits - The Very Best Of... DVD (which is on in the background right now, Money For Nothing! EDIT: Nope, Brothers In Arms has just come on now! My VERY VERY VERY Favourite track!). Hoping he hadn't already got it, I bought him Iron Maiden - The Number of the Beast DVD (and thankfully he hadn't!) to appease his Eddy love!

Unfortunately though, like Mark, I couldn't help buying myself a little something and with only a random look from the guy at the counter I bought a copy of The Notebook!

So thanks all of you for your crimbo pressies! and our fun exchanging of them in the car (after all the panicking and screaming from the boot/trunk being open!) and I hope you enjoy yours!

The second half of the night/morning was spent over at Han's house alongside the few of us that went into town (Steve, Mark, Kev and K) aswell as Han (it was her house, duh!), Heidi, Harriet and Ruth (who came later on in the night) For a good hour of the night, Me, K, Steve, Han & Heidi had to make do with random christmas songs whilst the rest went to find food! (and Ribena!) By the time they got back we were ready to start our Monopoly game that lasted until 3am in the morning! (Me and Mark were bankers! woot!) I'm sure the game would have lasted longer but unfortunately Mark, Ruth and I knew we were beat so we stood down like gentlemen and woman!
