If you could fix me up with any fictional character, who would it be and why?

Tomorrow, get up early to go to Pangbourne for mum to get meat from butchers, and me to have my fingers crossed that the post office is open so I can get the newcastle pressies out of the house and off my conscience. They may not arrive in time for Christmas but they'll arrive sometime around New Year. Which is vaguely respectable and you can point out that you made the effort.

Also, all praise the 'buying an extra prezzie because you know you'll forget *someone*' strategy. Eyeing box of fudge. Finished wrapping the Discworld t-shirts for cousins to send up to Newcastle. Dad mentions the fact that the large bottle is from Bina. See me shriek 'oh my god I forgot BINA!' (Bina : great aunt, very cool person, went on holiday to ridiculous amounts of major holiday destinations before there were even anything approximating hotels there, ridiculously sweet and although one of the oldest of her siblings, looks like there's a fair chance she'll survive 'em all. Worked at Proctor and Gamble as a lab assistant, responsible for my dad being a test subject for Head and Shoulders before it was Head and Shoulders, and before they knew it did anything for dandruff. Dad is living proof that when hairdressers talk about Head and Shoulders being bad for your hair they're talking utter bollocks. Has shiniest, thickest hair you've ever seen.) But anyway. Dived for fudge, wrapped it up, and stuck tag on it. Hyperventilated a bit from relief.
