Haven't opened main presents yet, but I'm getting a pair of heated gloves from my grandma, got them for £50 brand new :D (they're a joint Christmas and birthday pressie). I've asked for money from my parents to go towards getting my bike serviced or buying a tank bag/ bike sat nav. Also asked for the new Lee Evans DVD :) and a CD. Half sisters are coming over on Boxing Day, so I may get the Live Lounge CD and the Lee Evans DVD then [-o<

Happy Christmas everyone. I hope your hangovers will be awful! (normally signifies a good night :p;):lol:)

Very disappointed

Coat, jacket FFS XL are they trying to tell me something. woolly jumper.

I spent about £500 on wife/kids. got about £100 worth back. Although the eldest daughter bought me a nicely engraved hip flask and then forgot to fill it.

I don't understand it. I set the wife up with an account of her own for SnapOn UK, showed her how to use it whilst she bought a mate a nice new 1/2" ratchet and dropped suttle hints about how nice the roll cabs were. Not a hope in hell. when I asked was my new gixxer in the garage with a big ribbon on it. she told me to go look. No just my old one. what a tease, I just hope she is waiting for the sales.

I got some pretty cool & useful stuff which included a home charger for my tomtom, a gorgeus necklace & purse from matt (thank you sweetie :D) & 2 novelty penguin mugs - their heads are a lid which you can put on to keep your tea warm). Impressive! (im very easily pleased, lol). Also got some good psychology books that I can get my teeth stuck into

All-in-all, a result!

Jezza C's new book, Call of Duty for my PS3, Seal CD, very expensive olive oil which is delicious, a few other books, some chocolates and an Eagle and Bird of Prey Flying and Hunting day for the whole family!

Mrs BP has nearly worn out her new I-Pod Touch (which defines sexy tech!) and despite subtle hints, like, "Open that feckin' bottle" she won't let me have a taste of the very posh Cognac I bought her!

Come on love!
