Show us some
holidayChristmas decorations.
This is our Christmas tree. We fitted it in my little Metro, but only just, and it is real. It has red, while and blue lights on it, and if you ask me Gillian has Americanised it. She naturally denies this and points out that they are the same colours as the Union Jack. For reference the tree is Scottish. :-)
Who's the hardest person to shop for on your holiday list?
I don't have a holiday list. Is this a list of holidays you want to give to people, or in reality a Christmas list for those who have been sicked in a overspill of political correctness filling a void left when common sense went on holiday and got lost? Perhaps it is because I am British, but I just feel that this "Holiday" thing is so stupid.
Anyway, Christmas list, I do have to be careful here because when I posted this my girlfriend posted this. Fortunalty after a lot of shopping and seeing a silly film everything is okay now, but let's not rock the boat. :-)
The hardest person to shop for at Christmas is probably me. People ask me what I would like and I either have it, or it is overly expensive for a gift. This is not that I have that much, or have expensive tastes, I just don't want that much.
What is your favorite board game?
Submitted by I'm Unique.
To be honest I am not much of a board game fan, but I did like Scotland Yard, a game based around tracking down a criminal in London.
One player is the criminal and notes where they are on paper, only showing there true position on a few occasions. The other players need to use the clues to track where they are and catch them.
The publishers made a similar game about travel around Europe, but that was overly complicated to play. Recently I was given a Chicken Run game, but have never managed to finish a game because that is equally complex.
Do you keep a journal or diary? How often do you write in it?
Submitted by Kim.
No. I have taken to blogging some things I do, but generally I do not keep a written record of my life.
Have you ever Googled your own name? How did you feel about the results?
Submitted by elen.
Naturally, and considering the number of people I share my name with I am kind of happy. Normally a site about be appear on the first page internationally, and towards the top of the UK search. I have recently been knocked off the top of searching for "Alistair MacDonald Radio", but and still top of the "Alistair MacDonald Tyneside" search.

Show us what a bad hair day looks like.

In our office we come up with a few strange question, and most of them we work thought and come up with a logical answers, that may also be correct one on occasions.
Today's mind bender is..... "Does ear wax burn?"
For reference that is not as random as you may think. It follows on from the question "Does super glue burn?". That question was the random one. :-)
Anyway, do you know the answer? If so please let us know. We have surfed the net but can only find references to Ear Candles that help unblock the ear. Please help if you can by using your vast knowledge, or experiment if your ears need a clean.
