Got a lovely pocket knife I wanted, scarf, cool too, then the new "Long way Down " DVD, preserves, shortbread, slotcar set, Barndoor splittie, as Claires daugter knows I like them, not the scene tax mind. Duvet set from the charity shop.
Oh, and tea and toast.
Cool, more than I expected.

I got a not very retro, but very much appreciated, speed camera detector.
Also a nice corduroy jacket in brown, which actually matches the Galant dashboard quite well. And lots of whiskey to solve any driver fatigue problems.
Guess I've reached "that age" now, as it's all a load of socks and chocolate.

Just finished clearing the half-a-tree's worth of wrapping paper up from the lounge, I had 5hitloads of DVD's/CD's so I shall be spending the day giving my long-suffering neighbours about 400 watts of Hawkwind's 'Space Ritual' followed by 'Rainbow Dome Music' by Steve Hillage to calm them down afterwards. Have been busy of late getting involved with organising a forthcoming reunion of people who used to frequent a local rock night back in the early 80's so have rediscovered my love of hairy greasy 70's rock. Hence the long hair for the first time in 10 years... Vicky bought me the new Robert Plant/Alison Krauss collaboration 'Raising Sand' as well, which is awesome (I've got well into what they like to call 'alt.country' these days). All that plus enough chocolate to feed half a town. Hope everyone got what they wanted, and spends the rest of the day eating/drinking until they burst. Happy Christmas, everyone.  |

Loads of nice clothes from the missus (she's ace at finding me nice stuff), JC book and quite a bit of other stuff too. However Cavmad Junior has got a remote helicopter and a remote control Range Rover which are taking up all our time playing with!
Just like to add all the best to everyone on here, especially Hotwire for the best and most addictive website there could ever be!

Clare read my mind and sorted me out with a Clarke stacking toolbox and filled her with tools [tool box not girlfriend ] A renewed subscription to PPC and Transformers on DVD...splumph  . Also her parents threw in a haynes for the Shovitt and the Omega, five bar garage heater and an inspection lamp Stayed with her parents for the first time and so guessing that tomorrow [when I go up north to the folks] the obligatory socks and boxers will be replicated!! Plentiful chocolates, graphic design books, and a maglite intruder deterrent super hefty torch all litter the floor. People kind of seem to go off Christmas when it comes down to things you need rather than surprise but really what more could I have asked for that would have been any better!! |
