A Canon Plastic Fantastic? Possibly one of the best lenses you can buy. Unbelievable value for money. I would check your output closely as i had to go through 3 of them before i found a good un. Maybe just me, but had one with a fibre, one with a crack and a poor focusing unit.

A torque wrench and socket set from Mr LPH - he knows better than to buy me perfume!

Spending money for Thailand. I will be splurging this on the services of small Thai ladies inflicting pain on me whilst slathering me in oil.

A collapsible wine glass so when I get to AR/Togmie/GM I don't have to drink vino from a tin mug.

Several packets of Black Jacks from my nephews so I can turn my tongue blue and pretend to be a giraffe.

I bought Mr LPH some of those easy one piece chopsticks to take to Thailand as despite this being our 5th trip he still can't get the hang of how to use chopsticks

Boots, jeans and some long needed time with my family. I guess I must be getting old when christmas is no longer about the gifts.

I got that too

Also new helmet voucher for when the new 2015 range is in. The usual bits and bobs from family, notable amongst these is a cycling jacket from my sister and a selection of whiskies from my brother.
