Things what I want

A life-size, replica silver stag's head
Shoes made of magic
Sequinned clothes
A metallic leather oyster card holder
A peacock blue Liberty diary (I spent far too much time in there last night and now I'm ruined)
Fistfuls of bird and pony Christmas decorations
A cakestand with a glass dome
Bach's Preludes & Nocturnes
A Tudor ruff

Failing all that, I will probably be happy with a sticker book and some crayons.

Good list. Did you see the episode of Spaced where they dressed up the miniature schnauzer dog in a Tudor ruff? That's very much what I'd like to have.

I have a very old Liberty address book which has no pages left free but I cannot relinquish it.

Reminds me of a Tenacious-D song "Things I want" where they want a statue of Moby on the sun and a Motley Crew lunchbox filled with sticky buns.

I can recommend a glass dome cake stand purveyor as I have just bought one.

Silver stag - where would you mount it? (Fnar.) In the boudoir?
Those shoes are lovely. I bet you would look all teh sex in them.There are sequinned clothes not three feet from where I sit. They're in the dressing-up box.

I also have sticker books, crayons and MAGIC PENS that draw only on the special MAGIC PAPER that comes with them; I have fluff, feathers, glitter, glue, coloured paper, paints and play doh. Making and Doing stuff out the wazoo.

Yes, Snaggle Towers is full of win.

*sputters at the shoes* oh I want new shoes! but Chaunce might murder me, so I won't. I have some KG shoes hidden at work that I haven't dared bring home yet. So if you're reading this love can you go round and pick them up for me? Ta.

Oh Kate, if you hadn't of seen those shoes first I would of said *channels Vince* "I'm having them!"

They have robot and everything.

Snags - Can I come and play?

"I'm having them" *snatch*. They have lots of robot goodness in there and I've managed to narrow my top shoe choices down to 3 pairs.
The cake stands were similar to yours but on silver bases - glorious!
Fanny - after having one too many incidents of being away from home with a dead phone I bought myself a dirty black, patent leather address book from Liberty and I love it so.
Em - I can't believe you've had secret shoes and managed to resist not fetching them to skip around in. Are they fabulous?
Oinks - Yes! good call.
Snags - bring the MAGIC PENS to the pub. We can do crafting when we run out of knitting.

[this is good]

I have three scarves that I bought from Liberty's years ago. They are made of the Arabian Nights.

Excellent, beautiful list. Will you be going to any holiday parties? I would like to imagine you commanding the room, in your magic shoes, sequined cocktail dress and lace Tudor ruff.

I really, really want in on the magic pens/pub excursion. Nothing makes for hilarity like magic pens at the pub, surely?!

[this is good]

I know the silver stag's head seems like an uneding source of joy but take it from me; before very long it becomes a grave responsibility nd all to soon a burden. Without ever being able to pinpoint when you realise you have become a slave to the silver head and not even Sarah Beeny can save you. Gok probably could but he is impossible to book these days.

if the pub trip comes off I will wear them then. when were we thinking? I probably won't be able to make it, but you never know.

I don't want to be a slave to the silver head, although it is so shiny and pretty. It's also a hundred pounds and I could buy a sequinned catsuit for that.

Aubrey - I will throw parties just to create opportunities for wearing such an outfit. I'm very envious of your three scarves.

Riss - the only thing that could possibly surpass the magic pens, would be magic pens and glitter.

Em - I haven't seen you for a billion years so we should organise a special shoe outing.
