'Tis the season, so what would you wish for?!
The missus is complaining that I'm a nightmare to buy presents for! (I reckon she's a nightmare too, but she just says to go round Selfridges for a couple of hours and buy her "nice things" - I still think I'm right and so does the bank manager)
Anyway, I was wondering if anybody had any ideas what I should ask for, within the bounds of reason and sensibility!
I can't see any new software from Cronosoft and I've already bought a divide interface this year so am a bit stuck... Failing Speccy-related stuff, what is everyone else hoping Santa brings them? :-)

STeaMette took me to see Jeff Waynes War of the Worlds last Saturday at Sheffield Arena. Amazing stuff...will be seeing it again next time it's around.
I am also after Wii Goldeneye, one of those 2000AD collections from Rebellion - either Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog or Sam Slade - as I think they look like a fun nostalgia trip to read over xmas.
I am also interested in the new Orange Juice anthology box set 'Coals To Newcastle'. The only thing that puts me off is all the bonus tracks as bonus tracks on CDs really irritate me - especially if they are in the middle of the CD. I like the way the beatles did their mono box set with no bonus tracks and the packaging just like the original vinyl.
Some nice booze like a posh wine is an easy one to pick for a relative to buy.
So other than my new toy I'd like some Brown Ale, or Guiness Export (they've just started selling that at my place, I picked some up in Dublin in 2006 and it tastes like guiness, but it really ****s you up after a few bottles :D). Since I live in the US what I'd really like is some more Brown Sauce, and a case of Irn-Bru as well.
Maybe some Pickled Onion Monster Munch :lol:
You could go for an Android tablet.
Or maybe an Arcade Machine this from ebay. Some are ridiculously overpriced, you should pay no more than ?200. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Old-Space-Invaders-arcade-machine-/160515318124?pt=UK_Video_Games_Coin_Operated_MJ&hash=item255f75616c#ht_500wt_1156
You're mistaken. I ordered her first.
([All this meant in jest; you don't know on here lately] )
Really??? You've got a PS3 for Xmas? You've not mentioned it.
[Is there a Youtube post replacing the classic Young Ones "Oh, you've got a video?" with "Oh, you've got a PS3?"]
prefer Keira Knightley myself..
but neither would give me a second look..haha
I don't wish for anything.. errm yer material things are nice, but hhmm other things seem more important as I've got older
Asked my mum for some Pretty Green shirts (Liam Gallaghers clothing range), she went into Selfridges and asked 'have you got any pretty green shirts ?' and a camp assistant said 'no madam but we do have some lovely blue shirts as you can see....' (sigh) (Totally true by the way)
Socks ??!?
Anyway the 2000ad collections are superb, the early Judge Dredd ones are a bit basic, a bit like 'hey kids dont turn to crime' one parters, once the big epics start it really takes off. The Strontium Dog collections are superb, have all of those as well, theyre excellent.
like your hair growing back or something? :-D
Put the first Harry Potter movie on and then look at her.
Remember how old you were when that movie came out.
Still wanna shag her, or are you thinking a cold shower may help now ;)
You could say the same about Natalie Portman in Leon. I wouldn't mind a go now ;-)
Yup that's a bit creepy, but I was only 16 when Leon came out so it's not as creepy for me ;)
i didnt fancy her then.
doesn't make me a peado cos i want to shag someone who once was a kid. every girl ive been with was a kid at some point in their lives.
that an losing my gut :lol:
Correct!
But it does make you a dirty old man :p
well she's 20 and im 31. its not a massive age gap. ;)
For my sins I had to attend a "Maths Inspiration" event yesterday where they mentioned the formula F=M/2 + 7 for determining a younger partner's ideal age!
Got the remainding couple of models to finish off my Lego M-Tron/Blacktron collection- Reminders of my childhood, now proudly displayed in my living room in glass cabinets- Still a kid at heart!
Both those sound good - haven't thought about 2000AD since school!
I'll look them up - sounds like I've got something new for my wishlist.
When I was in New York earlier this year there was a shop near Central Park that sold fancy razor handles. I'd quite like one of those, but don't know how long I'd be able to get blades for before they changed the interface!

Dear Santa, i would like for wikileaks to just disappear, all of them to get normal jobs and start grassing up any government official and the news to stop mentioning them and go on about some postman stuck in the snow in Wales etc
The snow's not news anymore since it's melted in London.
Oh and a piece of Emma watson. :smile:
If you ask mile nicely I'm sure he'll hack one of her arms off or something for you, before he buries the rest of her under his patio ;)
Seems a bit weird to resurrect this old thread but what's everyone wishing for this time around?
The Mrs asked and I said I couldn't think of anything this year. Must be happy!
Either that, or I've already splashed out on everything I could think of! (Spectranet, keyboard membranes, signed up for a Harlequin...)
