A Christmas Meme

I was tagged by Isabella and the Editrix so I suppose I'll give it a go..

Welcome to the Christmas edition of getting to know your family and friends.
Okay, here's what you're supposed to do, and try not to be a SCROOGE!!!
Change all the answers so that they apply to you.
Then tag a whole bunch of people you know. Tis the Season to be NICE!

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Definitely wrapping paper.  If it's a girl, wrap it nicely and put a ribbon on it.  If it's a guy, just mutter something incoherent and shove your gift into their hands.  Newspaper is good too.

2. Real or fake tree? Real trees are best, but perhaps fake ones have a lower long-term carbon-footprint? ;)

3. When do you put up a tree? Sometime in December; and it isn't me, it's the others in the family.

4. When do you take it down? Early January...

5. Do you like eggnog? It's overrated.

6. Favorite gift received as a child? That's going back a bit far... I can't remember.

7. Hardest person to buy for? Dad

8. Easiest person to buy for? Probably Lydie or Si

9. Do you have a nativity scene? Nope.

10. Mail or email Christmas cards? You can't beat a good ol' fashioned Christmas card.  I made an eCard for Christmas in 2007 , but as a rule, just say no to eCards as they are usually ridiculously overdone.

11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? I've had bad ones, but I couldn't pin one down in particular - anyway, you might be reading this, and that wouldn't be any good would it!

12. Favorite Christmas Movie? Those Magnificent Men and their Flying Machines

13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? About a week before the first day of Christmas.

14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Always .

15. Favourite thing to eat at Christmas? Chocolate Santas, ham & mustard sandwiches, cherries.

16. Lights on the tree? Yep.

17. Favourite Christmas song? Oh Holy Night, O Come, O Come Emmanuel, Silent Night and What Child is This (No, I didn't copy you , they are my favourites!)

18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? Sleep.

19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's? Sorry to burst your bubble there, but neither Santa nor his reindeer exist.

20. Angel on the tree top or a star? A star of wonder.

21. Open presents on Christmas Eve or morning? Christmas morning of course.

22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? The many different ways that retailers capitalise on Christmas with cut-throat time prices, to compete at this important time of the year.

23. Favourite Ornament theme or color? Blue stars and silver streamers hung over a nice Christmas tree would look pretty flash.  Or the other way round, maybe a touch of gold too, a gold star at the top would be nice.  Definitely stars, candy-canes and not too much colour.

24. Favourite for Christmas dinner? Sleep off Christmas-lunch.

25. Favourite Decorations? Real holly would be nice!

26. What do you want for Christmas this year? I just want opportunities to speak up for the unborn, and also to share the Gospel with people.  Anything else is yeah, ok...

I don't know anyone I should tag, I think everyone I know who would do it has done it already...
