The Revised Edition of our Christmas List (the TRECL)



Our Family Picture, Taken on Eid.




Tis the season to be jolly, or so thay say...
every year at this time, before the trees start to be murdered for our homes, and the lights go up to increase global warming. We gift-buying-people dread going into shops, the shops that blast out the same x-mas tunes every year. Theres proberly a cd out there that they all buy, its called ''catchy (like the flu) x-mas tunes for stores''


now i had a delightful telephone conversation with my brother, a few days back. he stated that his first dream gift is 500 pounds, but since he knows we aint rich, he will send me a list of wish items, with the prices next to it.

I have not yet recived this list, maybe it will have a 1000 items by now...
Anyway here is my revised edition of our cristmas list,
