Xmas Sods Law

[WeWhizzzYouAMerryXmas]

That DS got loads of Lego for his birthday in Sept but preferred to play with Magnetix and for Xmas got loads of Magetix but prefers to play with Knex.

And that DS didn't want to buy a mega bargain reduced from £30 to £7 toy, instead wanting to spend his Xmas money on a horrid full price plastic huge Transformers lorry/gun thing taht makes an annoying noise

It's sods law that SmallDragons are only ill when most inconvenient, hence the family outing to the docs on Christmas eve, to be repeated thanks to BabyDragon on New Years Eve unless she miraculously gets better.

It's sods law that every single present yu bought for other people is now massively reduced in the sales.

And that when people asked you what you wanted for xmas you couldn't think of a thing. And now you can think of loads.

fullofchoc - I agree withthat especially as it was my birthday too - couldn't think of a thing & now I can think of loads of things I could have said & I have to wait a whole 12 months !

I think we should postpone christmas by a week or so but don't tell the shops.We could all save a bloody fortune!!!!

that i will insist in getting a real tree and then spend two weeks being completely allergic to it and get a rash and not have time to get to the gp if they are even open.

that the fridge will be full of leftovers but all you really want ot eat is a pizza from the take away and thcats will end up eating the turkey

that even with the planning of an MI6 super agent there will never be enough of the right kind of battery

that all the photos you took on xmas morning are blurry because you had wine for breakfast

that no matter how many 'extra, emergency presents' you buy (you know, just in case of unexpected gifts, tyou have a scented candle or two stashed away), you will alsways get caught out by someone and feel like a heel for not reciprocating.

That every year either me, dh or the children are ill.

That now ds finally has a bicycle, it has pissed it down every day since he got it (23rd dec for his birthday)

Sods law that this year christmas has been a massive rush despite starting in September, and I ended up getting a gift for my best friend's dd at the last minute, couldn't find anything similiar for her younger dd and so, in a mad panic to get something before Christmas, went well over budget to get one delivered in time, ended up spending much more on one than the other for more or less the same gift.

Only to then find, I wouldn't see them until new years eve anyway.

Still lied to their mum though that I spent exactly the same on both of them...she'll never know.
