Tickets to a stage play of Vicar of Dibley. It was pretty good and they all looked like the cast and had the same mannerisms of the characters.

A hula girl piñata for Cinco de Mayo party (they didn't have any Mexican-themed piñatas left).




I''m going to turn her into Justin Bieber, who will be much more fun to beat candy out of with a stick.

She needs her hair done properly, and a more Bieber-y face. The pink bra of course will stay.

So, anything bad happen to your Justin Bieber mug yet?

Haha, you remember that? Turns out there is a cool coincidence behind it.

That Justin Bieber mug, I got it in a secret santa lucky dip at work in London. I was telling my dude here about it one day. He looked at me weirdly and said... "I chose that."

Turns out he's really good friends with a guy I worked with (they went to uni together), and was in London visitng him on the same weekend we needed to get gifts for the secret santa, so they went shopping together. Knowing how male-dominated the office was, he pushed his mate to get the Bieber mug for a laugh. At the party a week later, I was the one who picked it up.

So yeah... technically the first present he ever got me was that Justin Bieber mug, a year before we even met. Small world huh?

Anyway:

Creepiest piñata ever.

Oh wow, that thing needs to die. Which is guess is kind of the point. ...

Last bought a bunch of junk food I don't need. And this, which I totally do:

That IS a strange coincidence. But, "a year", does that mean it wasn't X-mas 2011 but 2010 you got this mug, and the photo was a little outdated when you posted it?

Problem is of course, now you have to keep the mug and must ensure that nothing bad happens to it by chance.

It ended up decapitated, the creepy head bobbing about on the string while everyone scrambled to gather up the sweet, spilled candy innards. We did well!

Odd, I don't remember those from the UK at all! Are they uncommon or am I just less chocolate-conscious than I like to imagine?

Yep, that photo is from the night I got the mug, in 2010. I actually had the good sense to leave it behind in the UK, so thankfully don't need to keep the monstrosity kicking around my kitchen for the rest of my life.

Used to be popular, went away for a few years, and now seem to be coming back again. It's a good time to be a classic sweets fan ATM, a lot of old favourites have made a comeback - Whisper being another one (shame they're so expensive!). I've also seen Liquorice Flyers in a variety of flavours, which makes me extremely happy! Yay for the Blackcurrent ones!

Last bought lunch AND dinner at McDonalds. Their new Crosschips (might have the name wrong) are delicious.

Also, coolsome: Good buy. VERY good buy.

It's one of their temporary things, but yeah, they're "waffle fries". And they're yummy.
