Funny little Christmas up my way... after a few years of hating Christmas because of the tremendous waste of peoples money it has been, we got into the spirit to enjoy our daughters first one.

I loosened the purse strings and a good time was had by all - by some freak event the FIL cut loose and made up for a few dozen birthdays and Christmas' he has missed which made for some extravagant gifts too.

Daughter - got pretty much one of everything, she most loves the "ball pit" but she got this motion activated cat that laughs and rolls around the floor - bloody hillarious thing it is.

I bought the wife a Wii with the whole Band Hero setup and a heap of games, her dad took her out shopping today and spoiled her rotten too.

I got a chainsaw, clothes, amp, BluRay, clothes etc.

Was the most enjoyable Chirstmas I have had in a long time, less about gifts and more about enjoying family and seeing our baby girl laugh for days straight.

Feeling fat, happy and a little tipsy - hopefully I can maintain momentum until Jan

We used a Harvey Norman voucher to buy an Easy Cook oven thing today. Made a roast pork in it and it was so tender the meat was falling apart.

I was given some Roses chocolates (my favourites) and some nice perfume...the best present I received though was that I got to spend the day with my two sons and my husband. Best Christmas ever.

Great player. Nice gift for you too. Enjoy it!
I know of one here in Adelaide for $795 down from $1200!

I will enjoy it, trying to get it to fit next to the Jimmy bartel one

I'm a bigger fan of the players from 20 years ago, largely because they're 20 years older than me.
Of the current mob, my faves are/were Ablett, Chapman, Hunt and Rooke.

Bartel doesn't really interest me as much, as good as he is...

I will get one eventually in time...just for my own pleasure.

Some XR logo valve caps, a cadbury stocking and a $100 Osmosis voucher (which will be spent on new shoes).

Anything for the car is always a big plus for me!

A new Honda -powered Victa, alloy-chassied lawnmower.

Been wanting one for years.

Now just want a short shifter for the AU.

If I can sell the VFR 800 for a decent price, I'll get an old trail bike, plus a few other nice bits and pieces.
