Some of you QueenZoniacs might think this a bit cheeky, but I was wondering what you had in mind to get me for Christmas this year?
I have been working my little stripy socks off this year, behind the scenes, with no glory or awards, or shiny trophies, on marvelous things that are shaping up more than nicely, for your collective adulation one day - you'll haveta take my trustworthy archival word for this. And thus I conclude that I do certainly deserve nice things on Chrissy morning - and you should be shopping early to avoid my disappointment.
Can three or four of you please tell me what you're gonna be buying the fabbest and most mesmerizing Queen Archivist in the world this year. I'm most curious.
Perhaps we'll see who's funny and original and who's predictable and tedious, again.
And... yes... before you all say it AGAIN... I could have written something of use instead of this; something incisive and fascinating and thought-provoking. But why would I? You’d only find something in it to have tantrums about again, you wee beasties.
Get me GREAT THINGS for Xmas please. None of ya cheap tacky tat.
Love to you all. Bless you and may only lovely things and blessings and things of that sort come into your lives while you’re out shopping for my gifts.

Love to your dogs and other animals too.
Before someone else says this.....
I don't believe this is really me. I don't think I am the real Greg Brooks.
Can anyone confirm this?
Does anyone care?
I don't.
Evan could never have written such long, coherent sentences - without using caps lock. I believe it IS Greg and he tells the truth. When I had been working my ass off for several weeks (like now) I tend to talk or write senseless word salad too.

Get you great things and no cheap tacky tat? You dont want the The Singles Collection then? [img=/images/smiley/msn/tounge_smile.gif][/img]
Those "stripy" socks look a bit goth for the likes of ye, so I'm going to get you some black socks. I recommend you NOT wear them to the beach with sandals.
Twelve 3" CD singles
Eleven Pipers puffing
Ten Live Aid DVDs-a-leaping
Nine Freddie Mercurys dancing (from the Great Pretender video)
Eight lactating Q+PR fans
Seven Seas Of Rhye
Six pack of "Heineken"
Five Golden Greers DVDs
Four calling Queenzoners
Three remaining members
Two Ninja-black belt karate outfits
... and another copy of Greatest Hits III
I dunno what I'll get you, Greg. But I suspect, as I usually don't do my Xmas shopping till November-ish anyways (except for last year, due to my financial problems just starting around then...), even if I had a present picked out for you already, I'd rather keep it *A* surprise, and just have you guessing until then :-)
Will have to see, as I haven't even started thinking what to get my family and close friends for Xmas presents yet!
And after all, Christmas presents are less fun if you already know what you're getting :-P
Same with birthday presents too, actually.
Edit: Actually, a hint as what your personal interests/hobbies are would actually be nice to know :P
I'm not sure we ever touched base on that during our conversations!
Otherwise I'll pick something random but nice :-)
Well, sometimes it is hard to shop for certain people, especially if you are pretty sure they tend to already have everything they need or want. That's why I was so happy to see this. I don't want to ruin the surprise, but ...
