  1. My family decorates for Xmas and that's it. And even then, it's just a few odds and sodds on the tree and maybe a wreath on the door. I think it's a personal thing though, none of us really like to drown the house in gaudy tinsel. Others here in SA do, to the point where it's hazardous to walk through the front door for fear of being attacked by errant tinsel or projectile father christmas. (cats and kids love it though) It also depends on the culture, of which we have many. Diwali and Ramadaan, I think they get quite extravagent with the decorating ... Kerry
  2. But you can do that any day of the year, and it doesn't have to cost a small fortune! Kerry
  3. Naaah .... I find it hard to get excited about the whole thing. My mom will probably pull a tree out of the bush (like she normally does - can't remember when last we had a traditional xmas tree), so I'll help decorate that. Now birthdays on the other hand .... I go all out for those ... Kerry
  4. Agreed Gerb! .... I haven't even thought about who is getting what for Christmas ... I'll be the one charging through the mall at full tilt on Xmas eve ... Fortunately this year, I haven't been subjected to endless carols .... yet! As for decorations, I don't bother, I'm never at home anyway .... Kerry
  5. Everything in moderation is just fine. There is nothing wrong with fast food on occasion. It's when you have it 5 times a day 7 days a week etc etc etc that you put on the weight! If you are fairly active, generally eat healthily, then you really shouldn't gain more than a few pounds. .... I'm still reeling from that 396lb teen .... Kerry
  6. a 15 yr old weighing 180kg!!!!!!!! It'll take more than a few burgers to do that! Someone should sue the parents for letting their child get like that in the first place!!!! Sheesh! That's almost like child abuse! Poor kid! Kerry

    NOT HAPPY!

    LOL@Heli - my thoughts exactly!!!!! Kerry
  9. number 26 works for me Kerry
  10. I'm getting one of them housemates in Feb. Part of the deal was we find a place with a small garden a) for my cats and b) so I've got somewhere to have a ciggie in comfort! Kerry
  11. somebody told me not to clean my belly ring with anything other than hot salt water. It worked like a charm. It healed completely after 2 weeks, no itching, no icky stuff, no pain ..... Kerry
  12. Didn't you quit the other day? Why you waiting until the 1st .... start today! I will try my best to be nice Kerry
  13. I know exactly how you feel. Seven weekends have passed since my last jump (plane issues), so I am back on the rope, but for one jump and one jump only! Kerry

    phobia

    I’m claustrophobic. And get very irritable in large crowds, especially when I’m trying to get somewhere and everyone else is dawdling – I get very flustered. This is not a phobia, but I have a strong aversion to yellow. Ever since I was a baby. My mom used to put food colouring in my custard otherwise I wouldn’t eat it … Kerry
  15. I'm a real colonial .... grandparents on dad's side, Canadian. Grandparents on mom's side, Canadian and British ... Kerry
  16. Know what you mean. I could probably afford to jump a LOT more than what I am right now, but there are a few other priorities at the moment ... like my studies next year, had to save like mad, because I hate being in debt, and I'd rather not be owned by the bank Kerry
  17. PayPal doesn't have a link for SA I emailed them, here's the reply "We look forward to expanding our services to additional countries in the future. Establishing our service in each new country involves complex changes due to different regulations in each of these countries. " Sorry HH, but if you're ever in this part of the world, a jump ticket and LOTS of beer waiting ... Kerry
  18. Neither did I. I've pm'd HH. Nuff said. No more pw'ring. (or clicking on threads that might not be particularly interesting, seeing as it's per view and not per post). Have a safe weekend all. Kerry
  19. Discipline? yeah I suppose you're right ... ok, no more inane chat for a while ... as for the tagline, nac, you're reading my mind, the boss, and a couple others I've been dealing with the last few days (in real life) , but it's gone now .... Kerry
  20. seems the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. But lets face it, we're probably going to blether (LOVE that word!) regardless of what the thread is, let's just agree to let a thread die after a few days, whatever the topic Kerry
  21. I wouldn't stress too much, by the sounds of things, you have a pretty awesome job now! heli flights, show jumps, editing skydiving videos, models hanging all over your desk .... what you complaining about? Kerry
  22. teeeh eee thanks NacMac > she's obsessed with her car = bmw z3 tee hee .... and your last point is good too .... Kerry
  23. hmmmmm KFC TWISTER! .... but with chilli Kerry
  24. ah same crap different day - she's bitching about a quote, saying not enough information, but it's all there in black and white What frustrates me is she's sticking her nose into the day-to-day running of my dept, which normally has nothing to do with her. I think she's bored and trying to entertain herself. Never mind .... I just calmly repeat myself over and over and over .... Kerry
