    Christmas shopping done?

    Well are you a last minute shopper or have you been ready for weeks in advance?

    Me personally, Im a last minute shopper, you'll will see me on Christmas Eve running and racing trying to remember who I have to buy for and what in the name of all thats holy should I get them.
    Ever get the feelin' you have been cheated?

    Tell all the Bohs you know
    that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
    and it's not gonna be three
    and it's not gonna be four
    it's more likely to be 5-1.

    Usually last minute, but I got most of it done early this year. Couple last minute bits as usual, got the ole doll to do them for me. Ole dolls are great.

    Ordered most of mine, just waiting delivery. Internet is great - no shops, no queues at ATM's, no stupid Doris's dragging around 10 kids with them getting in the way...
    If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.

    I think I might give the whole gifts thing a miss this year.
    Will tell the family after they've given me gifts though.
    I hope they understand.
    Have Boot Disk, will travel

    I finished mine on Saturday
    I now plan to spend Christmas Eve In a pub (preferably with a fireplace and a view of a busy shopping area) laughing at the last minute shoppers.

    Give me the ages and interests of the boys and your budget, and I'll give you the perfect present option

    Have nearly all mine. Need your advice though.

    My godson Shakedown's 23. Interests - Martial Arts, Athlone Town, Liverpool, Music, pints, women (has a gorgeous girlfriend though so he's behaving himself), X Box ( has everything in that genre) along with loads of other things.

    I want to surprise him this year - anyone got any ideas?? I'm giving him money and music gift tokens and so on but I'm looking for that something special.

    Really would apreciate any advice as many of youse are in his age group.

    Why don't you pay for his annual subscription fee to foot.ie? All cheques or postal orders can be made out to :
    Kingdom,
    c/o Foot.ie
    Co. Laois.

    Don;t worry it'll get there.
