Not as far as I know, different format from what I understand. A friend of mine lived in Scotland for 4 years and brought back DVDs and they won't play on the average DVD player here.

I was in a vegitarian restaurant yesterday and the told me the closet thing they had to meat was a "vegan tvp burger" so I ordered the vegan tvp burger with bacon. Those vegans sure can't take a joke!

fair play to you.....i only send a handful and most of those get hand delivered after xmas. Really ought to send some this year.
My sunday has been nice. Spent the day 'xmas' cleaning my mams house with my sister. We do it every year. Got it done in super quick time.
My own house could do with an ordinary clean never might a xmas 'spring' clean...laugh

Hello Marianette wave
wish i could get away with a handful of cards grin
friends and family all over the world !! They all love receiving cards !
I had the ground floor of my house painted last weekend --so when all the furniture was pulled out from the walls , i took the chance to do all the extra cleaning -before XMAS decorations all have to go up !

Well done you on the help you and your sister gave to your mum with the house thumbs up
I have that to do for my own mum in 2 weeks time when i go up home again --2 of my other sisters help --so between the 3 of us we'll get through it in no time !
Did you decide yet on the gift for your son M ? you were undecided what to get him last week ?

I think I will take a leaf out of your book and send my faraway friends cards this year. A phonecall on xmas day is not the same at all.

I did decide on a present for my son although its not what I had planned on getting him. Paying his juvenile membership for the golf club and then some military lego sets. He's out-growing his gold clubs too, so might get him one or two new ones too.
I really want to get him a set of night vision binoculars or a spotter/scope but good quality night vision ones are expensive but id worry that the cheap ones would be a waste of money. There is a huge difference between them. Cant seem to find mid-range.

But more importantly....I need to find a dress for my xmas work party!!!!!!wow doh
