Christmas Prezzies......share what Santa is bringing
 
Hi guys

Just thought it may be an idea to share with the group, what is on Santas list this year for our loved ones.......or even, what we would like Santa to bring for ourselves...

My wife is after a digital photo frame. I am gonna do some investigating into one now actually. Anyone here own one/like to recommend one?

My wifes birthday is on the 21st Dec, so it's double prezzie time! May get her a spa day for that...........

Only 36 days of shopping left

hehe

Errr...small and light stuff because I'm a tight wad and don't want to spend it on postage :D

Well for my mother, I got some nice prints of the area, and nice local products...for my sister...errr...travel smelly thingies and more travel gear, but then getting her stuff is a mare...

what's on my wish list...a graphics card, an new hard drive with external case...but i'm not holding much hope for any of it, so also asking for books and a nice wine stopper, had enough of bleedy corks....

What I was looking to get, but can't over in the US, is some Nitelite GlowRings, basically glowing keyrings, but the chemical that causes the thing to glow for 10 years is banned in the US...there great keyrings, and really handy to have on generators, clipped to torches and other shite for when the power goes...
well presents seem to be easier than stocking stuffers...never really bothered with stocking stuffers in the UK...but they seem pretty big on it over here..

A huge high powered torch so I can spot the wildlife in the back garden. Nothing worse than listening to all that rooting around and not being able to tell what it is :D

Oh, and the first 3 series of MI-5 :D

Expect hubby will get slinky underwear.

And for mom, this, it's corny as hell but going to get her precious grandson to record on it, she'll love it!! In fact she'll probably cry!

Yep! He sure is. I get to wear it but we consider it a present for him. So, again this year there will be something silky in his stocking.

No, and if we didn't have to have Thanksgiving then I could start on my special Christmas mulled wine. Come to think of it, I could have started a month ago if it wasn't for Halloween. Oh, I do miss the 3 month long Christmas we have in the UK.

loads of people already decorated for it and the lights are out already....don't blame them though as it's not really snowed yet, so people are making the best of it because some of those decorations end up having to stay out till around June :D
