Crazy presents and anniversaries!

1

So, the Hyde household is no stranger to crazy presents. One year, James made me a mini ski slope in a show box because he had paid for me to have snow boarding lessons. Another birthday and he made a lion's cave (complete with little lion figurines) because he was taking me to see my first West End show, The Lion King.
Every year he makes iit his mission to find me some comedy socks - and he excelled this year. BUT, I have to say, both our gifts were overshadowed by what our families and friends did for our one year, paper, anniversary.
My best friend and cousin Joanna bought us the biggest monster box of loo roll in the most garish colours of pink and orange I have ever seen. How she quite managed to find so many that were so eye-ball popping is beyond me and, as a result, we won't need to buy loo roll for, oh, at least the next decade.
And my mum and sister went to town by creating us our very own lucky dip. Filled with everything and everything paper related. My sister even made us some origami birds.
Thanks to both our families for making our first anniversary so special and to those who are interested we will be doing a one year anniversary show live on Galaxy radio tomorrow morning.
On a side note, happy anniversary to my nannan and grandad who celebrated 56 years this week. I only hope James and I can be so lucky.
