Billytea -- I am so sorry for your loss.
Happy Belated Birthdays to the Buffista Boxing Day Babes! (Jesse, Theodosia and Rayne.)
I had a very nice Christmas -- got to play with my 4 year-old niece who is quite the character.
Also, despite having moved a year ago, my brother hung on to my dad's tv for me so, although not exactly a Christmas present, but as a result of Christmas I have a much bigger tv.
And for anyone who watches "Waking the Dead" -- did you see tonight's episode? Dayummm.
I just finished one of my Christmas presents, the DVD set of
Ultraviolet.

It's a six-hour British series with an interesting twist on vampire mythology. Pretty strange in some ways, but most of the plot threads are resolved in the final episode.
I'm usually pretty good at understanding accented English, especially the UK and Irish varieties, but some of the characters in this show were hard to understand -- harder than
Spooks
or
All Creatures Great and Small,
for example, but not as hard as
EastEnders.
I'm willing to loan the DVDs out, if anyone is interested. Profile address is good.
dcp, I think there are more than a couple of Ultraviolet fans here, myself included. I caught the miniseries on Sci-fi months ago, but I don't think I saw every ep. Must check that out.
I adore Jack Davenport.
I did hot rocks with Deb. I am too blissed out to rejoin the human race.
You see, there are these large round polished river rocks. And they are hot. And the masseuse rolls them up and down your body and tucks them places that seem to need warming up. And then you are lying there with hot rocks in the small of your back and hot rocks between your toes (really) and hot rocks in the palms of your hands and when the masseuse tries to take the rocks back you nearly start crying.
Hot rocks can totally kick Thai massage's ass. IJS.
No matter where you go, there you are.
But sometimes, you are there with rocks. H
Yay for a good massage, Betsy.
"What"s that?"
"It's your hand, Buckaroo."
