Because, frankly, I don't have a CLUE!
 
Uh NO ONE in the family wants anything (and neither do I) but I bet if I gave them nothing they WOULDN’T BE HAPPY.
 
A new phone. My iPhone 6S is still fine, but I'm BORED of it and the battery's shit.
 
Why does every cunt I know want vouchers this year as well? Is that a pandemic thing? I've literally got NO presents under my tree :(
 
No idea here, either. But then I've not had my birthday present from April yet, either.
 
My phone contract ends/renews/whatever you call it every two years in December so I’m upgrading to an iPhone 12 for pretty much the same price per month which is nice. Other than that I can’t think of anything else other than ALCOHOL.

I've got a few birthday presents outstanding too now you MENTION IT. Old Ellen will be getting SHORT SHRIFT unless she comes up trumps come Boxing Day.

Mostly cycling gear and beer brewing equipment. Is that helpful inspiration?

I've already googled "outdoor swimming accessories" and added as duck sea thermometer to my list.

Alcohol, I'm KINDA DONE since my Dad carked it and Mum and I uncovered his secret single malt stash. I'm OVERFLOWING.
 
I've pretty much just asked for vinyl. I believe I have a record box and some new bedding en route which is FINE BY ME.
 
OT: We scattered my Dad's ashes today by the way. It was at the crematorium memorial gardens as he wanted to be where his Mum and Dad were thrown to the wind.

It really is a RUM OLD AFFAIR. None of the ceremony of a funeral, you just watch someone basically leak him out of a kettle and then go home. VERY bizarre. I asked them to give me a bit separately which I'm going to put into the soil into his allotment which I've inherited. I think he'd quite like the idea of being next year's carrots.

THIS is another problem for me. I have a lovely long list of vinyl but Mr Sheena and my Mum both refuse to buy any of it. "Oh you have enough". "Oh you buy too many records already". "It's not special, I want to do something different".

Why everyone else is allowed what they want and I'm not, I'm not entirely sure...

My mum is like that seemingly whatever I ask for. 'Do you really NEED more books?' or 'Oh, but I bought you shoes for your birthday two years ago as well.

IT DRIVES ME MAD

I'm getting a watch from my parents for my birthday but Christmas is fragrance and vinyl and I have done a list of CDs for my brother so basically I will be getting more of what I have plenty of already. Better that than something random and unwanted that sits around taking up space.

When I did the deed of scattering some ashes I expected it to be vert poetic, and the ashes would fly away on a breeze. In reality the just sort of flopped out of a box into some damp grass. There was a moment of shocked disappointment, before a good fucking chuckle.

We’re already talking about nipping over to the neighbours on New Year’s Eve which is when the loosened restrictions are supposed to be over :eyes:

Regardless, I’m seeing 2020 out pissed as a fart dancing on a table to Wuthering Heights like the past two years anyway :disco:

We will probably capitulate and have some of covid party. I’m hoping we can go Freight Island on Boxing day as I have babysitters and I fancy a disgusting all dayer

That was us too. My Mum being asked to have her wheelchair pushed closer in TORRENTIAL RAIN on muddy grass so she could look at a bit of a, well, GREY MASS, me struggling to push her, my brothers trying not to cry or laugh and then 30 seconds later, we're OFF.

BYE DAD!

SNAP! I just don't understand why I'm not allowed what I want.

Tell me about it. I'm really missing my friends right now. I poured the Lindt balls out into my FESTIVE REINDEER AND SLEIGH WITH ACCOUTREMENTS on Saturday and said "Just in case anyone pops in and so we have something to offer them" before Mr Sheena rightly stated that no one WILL be coming in.

I just want a BAG OF PILLS, a PACKET OF FAGS, a litre of GIN and some LOVELY FUCKING PEOPLE IN MY LIFE.

Having said that, I can't remember the last time I had a fag. Probably the longest period without one since I was a child...it's a good couple of months.
 
You lot have been a FAT LOT OF HELP as well, by the way. I was hoping for HINTS AND TIPS.

Have you tried this new online shop called Amazon?

Bitch PLEASE. I reckon I make Moopy the most money out of ANYONE out of that damned link. I even sent my PARENTS IN LAW Mr Sheena's list and told them to use the damned link...
