Carl discovers the world

The other half and I were talking about Christmas presents with some friends a few days ago. They have kids and told us they're getting moon sand for their youngest. We don't have kids but we like getting really cool presents for our nieces and nephews.

"Moon Sand", um, what are you talking about said I. What is moon sand? I had already started visualising kids in space suits bouncing around the house. Ok, I got it wrong, this is a type of dough, or rather sand, that kids can use for making shapes, castles, all sorts of things. Read More

Dear Santa,

I know I'm thirty-five, but I still believe in you. Mum always told me if I was good you'd bring me lots of presents, well I've tried this year.

I love Christmas, I love getting lots of cool presents, I really love the big Christmas dinner. I hate writing christmas cards. Check out the example messages at the bottom of this entry, including some rude ones :grin:

As Christmas approaches I know that many of our regular site visitors will be interested in a new template with a Christmas greeting, and we hope this particular design will appeal to you. Its our first Christmas template, and hopefully not our last. The header image is fairly clean and simple, and features a single tree on a small hill covered in snow, whispy clouds and snowflakes falling.

The 'Merry Christmas' message in the header image can be swapped for a German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian or Maltese message by simply selecting the option in the template config screen if you are using v1.1 of Serendipity. Other users will need to edit index.tpl in the template folder. Download Christmas 2006 from our templates page
