Among other things I got.... Some new axle stands.... A flexi drive for my drill.... great for a bit of DIY head modding.... (cylinder head, that is.... ) and (Rev#9 will approve of this.... ) Che Guevara's 'Motorcycle Diaries', the story of his travels around South America on a 500 Norton...... ;D Anyone else get any good car related/retro goodies? Don't know if 'Old Spice' counts as retro.....

... the only injury I sustained was a bumped head when I let the seatbelt of without realizing the car was upside down and that's not really the car's fault.

Nothing car related! (Other than a headache from relatives asking silly questions for ages and ages and ages about the Imp, ie looking under the bonnet and wondering if I'd taken the engine out! : But I did get a new phone (I dropped the old one into a bucket of drained out gearbox oil from a Volvo and it hasn't worked right since! ) that has a camera in it, so now I can take pics of any nice old cars I see on the street!

3 books (including 'curse word cars') which I actually bought for myself on behalf of my wife. 2 x split screen vans (1/25 model and an egg cup!). Car cleaning kit gift set thingy. Custom Car subscription (my in-laws always get that for me!) Retro Cars subscription (from my Mum...she used to get me Street Machine) The children got: X-box Colin McRae rally (there's a great Mk1 Escort!) A 1/6 scale (huuuge!) remote control [BMW] Mini Cooper...a bit naff and plasticy, but still quite impressive.
