Christmas time again. Forget about socks, gloves, perfume etc etc.

Get a present that will be useful.. Get a Roadkill Calendar.. tastefully put together with artistic photographs of real road kill..

That's the spirit...that's exactly what I mean....There is one van actually rammed into a concrete block at the moment. As you come down Al Waab and go right towards Wholesale Market.....

How the hell did it do that????

A present is supposed to be a surprise.. So, it is better to pick one yourself..

i would like to , but as you know, a Xmas present should be remembered. You will forget the food after a day..

I have found a present for Alumnar..

Its a footy doll. You press the button on his back and he dribbles, falls to the gound, claims a penalty and winks..

Hours of fun .. :0)
