Xmas eve 10.20pm here in Adelaide and I'm 6 beers under hating the tv shows! Down to the pub I go. Merry Xmas everyone I look back on this year and thank god for AFF and the users who make it so great. From sales and swaps to advice and banter, jokes, pictures and videos, this site has it all. I've learnt alot and made new friends. The beer is going to start talking soon so I'll leave for now. Happy Christmas gang!
