    I received something that I had forgotten all about...

    A lovely Sankotu Knife. :)

    I now just need the skill to use it properly. :)

      Some more seed for the birds, a note to all to tell them where I am hiding, and a warm feeling of togetherness.
      :ThankYou:

        Bird food was the one thing that I did ask for and never received. :(

          Lots of good friends and hopefully continued good health in 2013. :love30:

          We don't exchange presents although we have received a nice boxed bottle of Port and a sack of walnuts!

                    Hmmmm, so what are you going to smell like? Are you normally unpleasant smelling that so many gave you smellies? First pair of slippers? ... have you been running around barefoot in the past with cold footsies? Hope you enjoy ... ;)

                        I think I must smell, yeah :cry3:

                        And I just wear socks round the house! It'll take some time getting used to slippers, I think.

                          Okay, so now you have to decide what scent you want to be for the day ... as a woman, I like different things on different days ... may be a sexy day, may be a grunge day. And keep those tootsies warm over there. :biggrin:
