Here are a few pictures of gifts i did get from peoples.
but they had a soft pig toy in a hut and percy pigs in with him.
i got the book though, not the dvd

i love her, she is called courage, and she is a little extra for when i am lacking.
a plumps soft toy grey dog with a big bum, which i can find no picture of :(
A SERIOUS hat for which i can find no picture, but its like a woolly pink and purple mohawk, its wonderful! and a scarf and angora gloves and a dynamo pink wind-up torch.

1) Was 2006 a good year for you?
It was better than 2005 i'm telling you!!!
2) What were your favourite moments of the year?
Moving out of Furness Road, going to Edinburgh with a boyfriend not parents (yay!) staying in a posh hotel and smuggling a happy meal in because we were too cheap to pay lots of money for dinner that night, making good mates with amy and saz, when Lion stopped smoking for 2 days, CHRISTMAS! oh and importantly losing over a stone in weight! DAWN SEEING AGAIN! that was amazing :-)
3) What was your least favourite moment of the year?
Dealing with the end of the Hannah situation, that was rough. First time i've ever ended a friendship, but i had to really. It was dire. Falling out with Lion, stuff like that really. Finding out i didn't get on quite so well with Nikki when i lived with her :( and also not being able to carry on slimming world, but i will when i get my own place. i know, i know my problems are quite trivial hehe! Oh yeah and Grandpa being in hospital :-( and when Gummi thought he had skin cancer and Dawn went blind.
4) Where were you when 2006 began?
At Gez's house being the banker for a home-made board game called Smok, which involves buying cards which stand for copious amounts of drugs, and losing them to tax, or getting busted. Pretty good game! I was the banker since i couldn't roll spliffs if i landed on that square, and i didn't want blowbacks, and i CERTAINLY didn't want to make the tea!!! I also had a kitten on my knee, and i was quite drunk on red wine. GO!

7) Who will you be with when 2006 ends?
Lion and a bunch of hippy stoners no doubt. Hopefully a cat or two.
