I went to the Post Office and found a total of zero advent calendars. However, they were forgiven when I found out that they stocked a green velvet scrunchie. I then continued my shopping trip around Feltham and finished off the twins Christmas present buying and got myself some warm, cheap pyjamas (with glitter on the stars).

I think I'm going to have to admit defeat and buy a chocolate calendar from Tesco and put twenty-four ridges into an ordinary candle. At least Tesco still have both.

Well, maybe there wasn't any singing. Although I can't imagine Ryan going for an entire Tesco trip without at least a verse of "Twinkle, Twinkle".

Have I ever mentioned how stir crazy the twins become when they don't get their daily trip out ? In fact, mostly they get taken out for a shopping trip in the morning and a walk in the evening. This is a great plan, except on those days when it chucks it down with no sign of an end. Never mind, it's over now.

In other news my Christmas present buying is almost completed due to the joys of on-line shopping, although I'm still missing an advent calendar. Anyone know where to get a decent non-chocolate advent calendar ?

And Final Fantasy X-2 now has a release date. It's 13th February 2004. Yippee !
