Christmas presents (AKA: Was Santa good to you?)


Recommended Posts

Well, it's Christmas Day, and I'm sure everyone has had their Christmas dinners and whatnot, so what did everyone get?

This year I got (spectacularly) a guitar stand and a tool box. The tool box will come very handy for putting all of my tools in.

...Though, a friend did get me a vinyl copy of Low which I'm delighted with.

My family seemed super happy with the gifts I got them, including this knitting book for my sister:

Aye, been a good day so far at the folks' house. Bizarrely, the only things I could think to ask for were a mop and bucket and a soup pot! (Thought a Wii would be pushing it) Got those and a few other bits and pieces for the flat as well as a 50 HMV gift card which will probably go towards a DS.

Some lovely duck for lunch and various texts from close friends mean it's been a good day, and I haven't even started on the cider yet.

*gets tinnie*

Ah, that's better. Merry Christmas!

:up:

I got some bitchin' stuff this year quite unexpectedly:

An Ipod nano (I've entered the digital age! Hurrah!)

Chris Jericho's book.

Bret Hart's book.

A replica WWE championship belt (I don't give a fuck what any of you think, it's badass.)

Some money.

And the coup de grace of Christmas presents: A Fraggle Rock DVD box set (I didn't even know they existed. Awesome, awesome, awesome!)

All in all, good stuff all round. Reading that list back, it makes me sound like a small child.

My sweet lord they are the worst pair of trainers i have EVER seen. Each to their own though.

I'm with you on that one. Dear God!

Being old, Santa brought me sensible middle aged presents like a hen house, some books, power tools, but the worst thing happened on Christmas eve eve I lost my ipod!

Arrgghhh! If anyone sees a 30Gb black ipod slightly scratched and full of really good indie, punk and goth tunes. Its mine.
