That's a wrap

Every year my family holds a wrapping contest that completely outshines the presents we give on Chrissie morning. We also go nut balls over the table decoration. One year we did live fish in vases down the centre of the table. I don't recommend it, half of them didn't make it to lunch, another few we're floating by pudding (and not due to egg nog). Over the years we've done all silver, all gold, green and white, red and white and even all blue. You have to go out of the Christmas colour sphere if you want to keep fresh. This year we did black and natural, and I think it's the best ever. I'm also pretty sure I won the wrapping comp, with my very cheap ripped novel and brown paper scheme. I knew there would be a use for that Shapelle Corby biography I was given last year!
