I've asked every year for a pony and still haven't got one *sulks*


Ask for a My Little Pony. You might have more luck.

I'd quite like a pet koala bear. And a flamingo.

I hope you realise I was being facetious :ninja:. Fanciest birthday present I ever got was a box of Cluedo. And you know what? I ****ing loved it :biggrin:


Milady, I was going to make a bestiality joke. And then thought better of it since the sarcasm wouldn't carry on the internet that well no matter how many smilies I used.

Still, that was avoided but now you think my class-warrior syndrome is kicking in. Ooops. :o:

In TSR related news, the Back Room is royally pissing me off.


:ditto: It's just a bloody Games and Comps fest now, since all those people (emilina being one of them actually, heh) have got in with their GCSE essays.

God I feel really really spoilt now and not in a bragging sort of way, instead more of an embarrassed way :o: :o: :o:

They don't really come with the same perks. Although they are a damn sight cheaper *ponders*

Flamingoes sound like a fab idea.

I once got a mini-fridge as a present 'cause I was "Going to uni soon". This, mind, was at the end of GCSEs and I took a year off after A-levels.... I later gave it to someone as a birthday present.

Does anyone else recycle presents? I do it ALL the time. Christmas, Birthday, or Hanukkah. The worst is when I gave someone a present they bought me two years prior. Didn't go down too well, as one can imagine.

The battenburg milkshake at MOO MOOs in Oxford is the bizz. Honest. You should go to Oxford just for one.

Well on a good note ( I hope) I finally handed in my dissertation today. Sorry for gatecrashing but been in the pub since the deed was done. Three weeks break now until the big one!

Fairly new, opened in Trinity of my 2nd year, so TT06. You'd have been far too busy with Finals and trashings.

Never heard that one before.

Round where I live, the favoured derogatory term for an Oxford student is something along the lines of "posh ****ing ****"

Tabs and Onions - I thought this was quite well known?

V: I only pondered since you were talking about Oxford, it seems you know it well!

Actually I'll correct myself there:

My gf got herself a wii fit for my birthday.
