RE: Re: What's Santa going to bring you?

Right, I see I'm going to have to explain myself...

It's for SWMBO!! - she's trying to gather this phrase in as many different
languages as possible.. - It's sort of a "challenge" at her

So far, I know she has got it in:

Latin
French
German
Spanish
Esperanto
Mandarin chinese
Indonesian
.... and at least half a dozen others which I can't remember now...
