I know that there are several people who believe that the gift is not special if you buy something off a wishlist, but trust me, I would really love it if you do! I'd rather get something that I really like/want for my birthday! Sorry for sounding so spoilt :(
Note 1: PLEASE... PLEASE... PLEASE NO COSMETICS/BODY SHOP!!! I have too many of them at the moment, I don't need more!
Note 2: I am allergic to any metal other than silver or gold (or platinum? - not sure about this one)
Note 3: You can always post a comment saying that you've tagged an item with a pseudonym so that no one else will get the same thing as you! Things people already shot-gunned will be
Here is the list of things that I would love to get for my 21st :D

Eeee! Another Jasper Fforde fan (or so I assume from your list). I can't find copies of his books with the original, painfully bright covers, but I will see if I can find you a hard copy. I will also get around to finding a host for the physoc forum - it would be good to have one that accepts formulae without jpeg-ing them, but no luck so far.
Hehe :D
Yes, I'm a Jasper Fforde fan (how can you not be?!)
Thank you so much for planning to get the books for me! I guess The Thursday Next Series is tagged then :P
