As this thread has reached the 1,000 post limit we've started a new one for you to enter on which you can find here.
I would love to find my daughter (she is in Cape Town), under the tree. She loves books as much as I do, so we'd have a lovely time together with this prize.
I would like Charles Dickens as he epitomises Christmas -as a literary magnificent and unique activist highlighting social inequality. He would be great to talk with and maybe he will tell a story or two of course it will be snowing outside and we will sit in front of a fire ;)
I would love to find Gruber, a Giant Schnauzer, under my tree. I thought I was buying him, but it turned out, that I was in a queue of over fifty people. I was never told about the other interested parties. When I found out Gruber had been rehomed, I was miserable for days, as I, actually, thought he was mine. Consolation is, that it sounds, as though he has landed on his paws and has a great, loving home.
Like so many previous posters I would love to find my 3 AC their spouses/partners and all 6 GC in the same place at the same time We can all wish - love to all in the same position
I would love to see all my much loved pets from the past who gave me such unconditional love! Pasha and Wally my Afghans, Jason my golden lab, Mutley and Jeff adopted in Botswana, Ziggy, William, my cats Sugar, Spice, Tazz, and many more. Loved them all to bits - they would be the best present under the Christmas Tree but think pandemonium would ensue!
I would like a dvd with all my previous Christmas days from when I was a child on it. To see my mum,dad,Gran and rest of family who are gone would be amazing. To relive the days when my children were young on Christmas Day would be amazing too. Oh if only.......
I would love to find all my family gathered around the tree, unfortunately I can't be greedy and expect them all to be with me as everyone has there own families now. I do get lots of visits though through out the day.
