Anyone notice I was gone?!
Ok so I haven't written. But let's face it, you don't send me flowers... oh boy i've lost it.......
While some people have been spending Christmas with their computers, some of us namely ME have been stuck in a cottage in the middle of nowhere up some unmade track with no signal, only family and sheep for company and with only a piddly fire for heat. Oh the boredom - i slept inbetween the compulsory family meals and family bonding games. Trivial Pursuit was particulary tense. Beat my whole family including my nan oh yes at table tennis. who rocks that's right me.
My mum knitted me mittens for Christmas, wee bit on the long side but awfully cool nonetheless.
I've been back in Essex for one day, met up with my chums who are great if students and got hugged by random children i used to teach and who's names i couldn't for the life of remember. Think i blagged it good though.
Am off again to East Sussex tomorrow for New Years which I am very very much looking forward to of course for no reason in particular...mmmm more presents....
On that note - if anyone has an tips on how to impress the in-laws do let me know, I'm terrified!?!
Today i have straight hair, tomorrow i will have curly hair. The mysteries of life ay, gotta have a chuckle int ya.
Good to read about all your holiday fun and games, keep it coming, although Matthew Turner if you insist on using the word 'ace' you know what a pummelin you'll get don't you?!
Ok must find clean clothes..........

I realsie this might be tempting fate but that was an ACE post!!!
Yes i do have a death wish!!
Glad you've had a relaxing holiday (well if you spent most of it sleeping what else would you call it)
Have a good new year and i'll see you for more fun games and dealing with the children when you get back.
Take care hon
Not had much experience with In-Laws (have with out-laws though does that count?!) but I found that walking around drunk and naked is NOT a good thing to do. Also don't bite your toe-nails nor wipe your nose of the hankercheif things they put on the arms of the three-piece suite - that can result in near death. Finally and most importantly smile. If you smile they seem to think you could do nothing wrong. God Bless...Andy Guilder
Dear Miss McAdam,
Further to our previous correspondence regarding former animals in possession of our family, I feel it necessary to set the record straight on several issues, chiefly for the benefit of your 'friends'.
i) My initial statement that 'we had a hamster' has been proved erroneous; it was, in fact, a gerbil.
ii) Your proposal that 'we had tadpoles', is, on first investigation, true, but only to a certain extent. Mrs A. McAdam (forthwith refered to as 'our mother') states that we were 'looking after the school tadpoles' for a period of no more than a few weeks. I suggest, then, that this does not qualify them for the status of 'pet'. I would also doubt the word of a woman who constantly states that my elephant slippers were blue and not, quite obviously, pink. Furthermore the lack of my own memory of these tadpoles is particularly disturbing as I generally remember everything, and so I would be grateful if we did not mention said proto-frogs henceforth.
Yours faithfully,
Richard J. McAdam
