Subject: So what did you get?

I got:
jumpers
T shirts
Chocolate (lots of, chocolate money - yay!)
Cheap smellies - not yay.
Theatre vouchers
A super duper new camera and lenses.
Compliments on my cooking.
A bad headache.
A brewing arguement.
A pain in my right hip after falling over in an unfamiliar pub that apparently "I would love as it sells beer that is not "girl's beer""...
A continued use of ellipsis...

...

I got:

Some Spurs PJ's
A rugby top
A cone that you put outside the toilet after I have been in there that says 'Warning! Please return in 10 minutes!'
2 containers of sweets (1 dolly mixture, 1 Giant strawberry)
A DVD of Englands greatest 5 matches of the last 10 years (but its 1995-2005!!!)
3 sets of deo and shower gel
Some chocolates, including a bush tucker trail one. This has evil curry jelly in White chocolate in some of them and fruit jellies in the rest. And they are f***ing disgusting!
A set of pistols that shoot suction cup bulletts, and some plastic tin cans that you stack and have to shoot down.
A t-shirt
A £15 Burton's gift card
And thats all I can remember at this point!

I had my Christmas hangover yesterday after going out on Christmas Eve. I bought my best mate a set of duelling radio controllled helicopters so I'll be off round his to have a go on them later!

We had 2 power cuts yesterday, a very late Christmas dinner, and a whole lot of candles.

A DVD of Englands greatest 5 matches of the last 10 years (but its 1995-2005!!!)

Everton would need to do it from 1905-2005 to get 5 matches.
A Manyoo one would only go back as far as 91 (?) - when football started (the Premiership).

Acoustic guitar
How to play guitar book
Pitch pipes

You'll need a digital tuner as you'll never manage it with pitch pipes. Go to a proper guitar shop for one (I got a Korg one) as the ones in Argos are hopeless.

My main present was a Mini-DV video camera. An uncomplicated one as I'm no good at any type of photography.
Other than that, HD-DVDs, sweets, an "extremely hard" cube puzzle that I did in 5 seconds much to my daughters horror.

Spending time with family will be the best present.

I clocked that; they seem a bit hopeless! Tuned the E with the piano in the end and then went from there. I'll see if I can get one off of Ebay I think.

I got:

1. John Lewis vouchers (for me and my gf)
2. £50 cheque
3. A Painting
4. Son Volt Cd
5. DVD
6. A couple of books (including a cook book)
7. And nothing from my gran who managed to remeber everyone in the family apart rom me (second year in a row someones forgotten me)

The good thing is the presents from my gf and her family I get tomorrow when she returns home

Titanium ring from her indoors,
Ego Backpack,
Chocolate,
sweets,
tie,
boxers,
Suduku + Kakuro book,
xbox 360 stuff,
Book on baldness,
Moisturizing cream,
T-shirts,
"Worlds biggest liar" bottle of ale from her parents.

I knew it wasn't going to go well when my brother passed me a present and said "this is yours". I opened it, and to my surprise was a capacinno maker. I was surprised because I don't drink coffee. He then said, "oh, that's not yours, it's Alans". Daft boy has been spending too much time on auction tv channels, I am now the rather embarrased owner of a globe, with the countries (rather roughly, cornwall and norfolk don't exist in the uk, and scotland is huge) made out of semi-precious stones, roughly 39 different types in all. It stands within a gold plasticy / metal frame. Other tacky rubbish included :

3 Elvis themed fridge magnets, move within 100 yards of the box and they play 10 seconds of "the wonder of you", "suspicious minds", and "glory glory hallelujah" simultaneously. Some clever bastard at the factory appears to have wired them up so that they play every time the woman 5 doors down coughs politely, or when cars pass 3 streets away.
I "forgot" to bring these back with me, leaving them at the in-laws on the way home.

2 red t-shirts, one adult size, one 3 year old size, the adult one says "Me", the 3 year old one says "Mini Me".

A Wii Lightsabre, which sounds, and indeed, looks cool, and is probably the kind of thing I'd have dreamt about when I was 15, but it kind of gets in the way of playing the actual game, and well, I look a bit daft waving it about at 35.

Mums' traditional striped jumper. A hideous concoction of light blue and grey, made for people with biceps and bigger shoulders.

The candidate for useless technology of the year, 1998 - A USB powered picture frame. You plug it into your computer, and it shows any of the 59 pictures it can store. Kind of like a screensaver of a mobile phone then, but on your desk. Why ?

I have considered putting these crimes against taste on a photograph together, but came to the conclusion that the camera would break.

Other, slightly less tacky stuff :

A Phillips' Shaver, from someone who knows that I use disposables, and only when I have to...

Some vouchers and some cash (thank christ).

Sonic and Mario at the Olympics on the Wii.

Lego Star Wars on the Wii, which I'm told is great, but I haven't got into it yet.

Humbug, anyone ? :)

i got an ipod what i can't seem to work and some other stuff

I got....

Football manager 2008
Pro Evo 08
Pirates of the Caribbean, therd'un
general menly body cleaning stuff
sweets, and a good chunk of it. (be gone in a few days :))
50+ quid, and my parents still owe me £50, though I owe my dad £60 atm.
A MotD history book, woo, my one set of relatives thrive on chistmas presents.
2 T-shirts, and 1 jumper, my parents(mom) is actually very good at finding me T-shirts that I like, though me going, look, look, that's what I like, probably helps!

I haven't quite had the array of gifts you got though :).

A much better haul than last year for me:

A Wii with Wii Sports, Wii Play and Metroid Prime 3
A toasted sandwich maker
A new set of speakers for my mp3 player
£45
A t-shirt
The Bourne trilogy books
A mini tripod for my camera
A weird fan thing that can display a message that you type in, a bit like this but no-where near as good.

I need a toasted sandwich maker again. A panini press is no good for a baked bean toasted sandwich.

Um...

2 books [Imprimateur, Omerta(in english)]
huuuuge bag of sweets[when I was about to loose weight...oh well]
nice, black chemise
a pack of vodka glass[wet? is it correct?]
Bowling for Columbine[on dvd]
some money and some little gifts
