Ive been thinking, someone should make a website where you put in a list of the people you've to buy presents for, their age and maybe one or two of their interests, how much you want to spend and they pick a present for you to give. Maybe they could even email you a choice of two or three things -you pick and the deliver them wrapped. 


POG they have a website called amazon.com

POG, if you put in "fiver" for your mammy they will instantly send coal to your ip adrdress.

Although amazon uk has free delivery over a purchase over a "fiver"

see, I either dont know waht those things arein that list or the presents wouldnt be suitable for the people who struggle with the tv remote control  :-\

She got that for her birthday.
Dont think that would work on the whole family.  The nephews and niece would definitley be pissed.

I'm starting a website that people might want to use. You're looking to buy a sofa, a goat, a Honda or whatever. You find one of those shops or websites that say "if you can find it elsewhere cheaper, we'll match that price". Your sofa is €1,275. You log onto my website, and put "Acme Sofa, Model 153G, Red" in the product description and €89.95 in the price box. You pay me €50, print out the page and take it to the shop or email the link to the online shop and collect your sofa for €89.95.

Just left the store there, and as I was walking around I found myself whistling along with the music being piped through the speakers. After a while I thought - feck this is very familiar -but I cant put my finger on it. So I concentrated and realised I was fecking whistling silent night.

Its on people - sure for fecks sake valentine is just around the corner.
