Ideas for pressies??

My biggest worry is my best mate, every year we do something sweet...like she bought me a star, I made her an A to Z of our friendship, [basically something special/lyrics/quotes for every letter] i made her a scrapbook for her 21st -"In just 21 years" with all these pics of her throughout her life, she got a "Sianbox" with my fave songs on cd, fave book, quotes, fave sweets, basically all my fave things in a box! :D

Now I am out of ideas...I do this, I get a good present and then I can never top it :(

[matthew]

59 days ppl!!!

buy her a tree!! that way they will always have something that you got them. a pretty tree like a cherry tree or an apple tree... pear trees have nice leaves! its true...

yeah that is a little!! :) well 'gingerbread' shaped guys would be ok. best stick to trees and stars for the festive cheer!

I'm decorating plain terracotta plant pots with potato prints of leaves and flowers and planting them with short-growing narcissi to give to friends this year.

I dont think I like it every year. Every single year I avoid it cos I dont think I like it then I taste it and go "mmmm....I shall have some more" then Christmas is over and I forget I like it all over again!

[Fintan]

It's too addictive...they're like pringles. I sat and ate a box...A BOX of shortbread one year...

There's just some things I shouldn't admit!! :oops:

[matthew]

i used to hate the little pringes but now i dont
i ate three boxes today :(

[Guinness]

Shortbread eh?

Right, I was thinkin about this. I think it was put in a post earlier but no one really took note.

Secret Santa...

Any ideas on how this will work or what could be sent?

[Fintan]

Well you normally need to pull the names out of a hat or something, I personally don't think it could work because you couldn't do it secrectly. E.g. if you did it the same way as the big tape swap was done by whoever posted next then everyone would see who everyone else got! :?

[Guinness]

I was going to ask who all wanted to do it and then I'd just take all the names together and put 2 and 2 together...

Only I would know who everyone got...

[rusty66]

Hold on I am confuzzled [its that easy to confuse me!]

Explain! So we give our names/addresses to someone eg: Conor and he picks and and distributes addresses?

[Guinness]

Bingo!

But the problem is... what to send?

Bit of a twist in this one maybe? or not...

[jan]

I've spotted another problem.......everyone would be able to read the postmark.
Sometimes when you put 2 and 2 together you get 8.
Lovely idea tho.
Why not make it like the Tape Swap but put a strict limit on expenditure.......ah but then some of us use pounds and some euros.........no, it could work. It would test our ingenuity :)
Also spotted that throwaway line from Niamhs about the tractor - all that bouncing about and vibration.......... :oops: :roll:

[arginite]

I think we should have a Christmas Tape Swap.... bombard each other with our Christmas tunes YAY!! Christmas music already I hear you say... ah cmon its almost November.. any day now.


IM SOOOOOOO EXCITED!

[rusty66]

Bah humbug!
STOP THIS MADNESS!
Its only October!

Tried going out but it was too cold to stay out long.
My brother's in Helsinki and it's even colder there.

Does anyone else think that we'd all just get the same songs back again if we did a Christmas tape swap? If I never hear Last Christmas by Wham again it will be too soon....see thread Songs that make you want to switch off the radio.
xx

[arginite]

But there are covers .... like David Ford singing 'Fairytale of New York' ooohhhh ahhhhh ohhhhh ahhhhhh :) makes a refreshing change.. as much as I love Shane singing it. variety is the spice of life and all. great cover

[rusty66]

No No No No

There is no-one like Shane and Kirsty! Tis blaspheming the song otherwise! Like Ronan murderrring it! Tis my fave Christmas song fyi!

[Fintan]

I have never heard Ronan covering that song and by the sounds of it I don't want to! That is by far my fave Christmas song, completely! I always get the feeling of Christmas when it comes on...ahh I love it!

[jan]

I'd love to hear Mr Ford's version.
Have a brass band arrangement of Do They Know it's Christmas which is lovely on a CD called Brass band Aid recorded last year for World Vision/Brass Band Aid.

Some friends of ours were very involved in this and still are it's an ongoing thing which has funded the building of a new school in Ethiopia.

I'd love to hear Mr Ford's version.


PM me an email address and I shall forward it on to you :)

[thesneakybandit]

i could make a great album of christmas songs that you won't get anywhere else...

*well obviously you would get them somewhere else as someone would already have recorded the songs :)

[rusty66]

but not in that particular grouping...

[jan]

Can I be first on the list Scott?......so long as it doesn't have Last Christmas or Stop the Cavalry........ :roll:
or Bony M doing Mary's Boy Child......
or Cliff Richard doing Mistletoe and Wine..........
I need something stronger than smelling salts :!:

It is very very Christmassey in Kerry today. There was snow on the mountains and the sky is dark and eerie. The shops are playing Christmas music and the lights in the town are on. IM getting very excited.. my favourite time of year is on its way. I lofe Autumn but nothing beats the few days of Christmas!

I took a break from my "no photos" to follow the snow today

http://static.flickr.com/116/300180293_8e1931b822.jpg

(nicer ones flickr but this has the most snow! oh and no need for rudeness now)

I sast for hours looking at the mountains today, just thinking... very very peaceful here today.

[de@BSE]

I'm glad I took the time to have a look at your pics....

Not sure why on earth you'd want to take a "no pics" break, but I hope it doesn't last too long.

Paul

[arginite]

Thanks Paul.. I appreciate the visit. And I am very glad you posted as it gave me an opportunity to visit your work... very impressed indeed. I particularly like the Glasgow Hilton shot, beautiful contrast! Benone Beach is also very beautiful.

Quite a number of photographers on here these days! Nice to get a chance to see some new work.


Re the 'no pics' break... lack of inspiration mostly, but also I was taking the time out to concentrate on other things like music and re-developing a social life. I find my photography can be very much a solo hobby. Days like today where I just head out with the clicker to think. I guess I have been trying to avoid thinking too much lately, and hence avoided the photography as well.

"Photographs are smiles that last forever" - beautiful sentiments from your site Paul. Thanks for sharing.

[Fintan]

Awwwhh Katie I love that photo! I felt really Christmasy yesterday! The snow on the Cave hill in Belfast was beautiful and on all the surrounding hills! Freezzzzing cold but it all adds to the atmosphere! And they played Frosty the Snowman today in work hehe! Loves it! :D

Santa has brought me, amongst other things, the Beatles' Love album, a very pretty silk scarf and a paperback entitled 'Grumpy old Women'.

i now have gone off it. we put our xmas tree up in work t'other day and it depressed me. a man comes in and i call him santa, he said that xmas isnt xmas anymore. i have to agree... its not as magic :( maybe ill change my mind coming up to xmas though who knows!

My work are flying us all to dublin tomorrow for our christas party & I can't wait! 20 Donegal people let loose in a dublin hotel for the night with free drinks!! Bound to be a bit of fun! Not looking forward to the flight back on Sat though!
Anyone else partying this weekend?

Nope not this weekend, have my Christmas party next Sat night, can't wait!! Let the merryment begin!! God how class is that getting flown to Dublin & free hotel, that's so class!:)
