And I haven't got a day to - find the decorations, sort out the decorations, put up the decorations, stop the cat from eating the decorations ...HelenMWaltershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16182100572365505905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6811678176256049495.post-90423609888371066432007-12-10T17:20:00.000+00:002007-12-10T17:20:00.000+00:00glad to mine at 19, 17 and 15 aren't the only ones...glad to mine at 19, 17 and 15 aren't the only ones expecting a grotto!Anna Scott Grahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02744202738210301084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6811678176256049495.post-88775769759772898122007-12-10T15:52:00.000+00:002007-12-10T15:52:00.000+00:00I know EXACTLY how you feel.

I can't remember the details (I'm sure I have an article on it lying around somewhere), but apparently the level of jostling the cable gets has very little to do with it. Length is the most important contributing factor. I just want to know how my earphones get a knot in under 7 minutes...<BR/><BR/>That being said, the tangled xmas lights are just another of life's mysteries. Like- why do tinsel bits appear in the carpet mid-July? Where do all the coat hangers come from? And where have all the teaspoons gone?<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>MikeFPDuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12889685774532510077noreply@blogger.com
