Family guy box set with series 1-9. Autographed MAtty Hayden book, standing my ground. A 3 dimensional wooden puzzle, which I am told will make the shape of a rugby ball if I can solve it.

Sweater, shirts, shoes

Slippers? How old are you , Gagger? Do you smoke a pipe?

I used to have a gazillion of them but the bloody things keep getting broken when being washed. I should ask for some more.

By my reckoning Mr Timms is ahead on the choicest preso award - HD camera AND a bike. That's just profligate

Shitest so far seems to be Naza with his 2 pairs of cotton socks with vouchers, tying with Scarfie who seems to have got sweet fuck all (or maybe it's just a mimimalist christmas?)

Special mention to Jets and the T-shirt, shorts and thongs. Strong contender

What about my beer for a head? Priceless!
Nah, I reckon Timmsy scooped this pool too.

Good haul this year:

A big day out ticket, some books, a shirt, some cufflinks and an xbox 360 to keep me distracted!



......oh and someone gave me a bloody towel as well!

I'm still waiting for my relatives presents as we've been avoiding my dad's side of the family so far, my guess though is some 3 sizes to small T-shirts, a random book and a combined birthday and xmas present of $150 and may be some cheap chocolates from crazy clarkes.

Satisfaction is what you make of it.

Put them aside and wash them yourself by hand. DO NO PUT RIEDEL GLASSES IN A DISHWASHER. EVER. As a SOP I don't let anyone wash my Riedels, if they break it's my fault. Same for my Spiegelaus and Schotts, or any other good wine glasses.

They never go in the dish washer, don't worry. Our glassware is always washed by hand. However, as a mate once pointed out to me, I've got fingers like cows tits and I've clumsily dropped and broken them in numerous different ways. People also drop the bloody things, like happened on christmas day.

By far my best gift this year has been this award. When do I get my shitty certificate? :thumb

Damn, life's tough in Honkers is it MR? That's a seriously tough choice but I think I'd go for the rs4, with either of the others a good choice backup. No c63 in the line-up?

Sarcasm doesn't come across well online! As if I'd splash out on one of those in exchange for some shitty xmas presents!!
