Mostly the kids, but I got a shirt, new trainers - my daughter tells me Lacoste are for chavs Embarrassed but I definitely wouldn't be mistaken for a chav - chocs, and a tenner toward an add-on.

Trouble is, on Christmas day my wife was cooking some frozen peas in the microwave, there was a huge bang, and the microwave bit the dust. So now I need a new microwave.

 my daughter tells me Lacoste are for chavs

Kinda true, when i worked at Debenhams doing security it was mostly teenagers coming in and buying Lacoste, wearing the full works, big gold chain round their neck that could be used to secure a bike, every finger filled with gold, white nike hoodie, white trackers, and oh yea will not be complete with white nike trainers would it?  Plus i doubt you wear that do ya?

Kinda true,
 

Well, my old trainers were K-Swiss, which apparently are also totally chav. But to be honest, I'm not too disturbed; the last thing you'd associate me with is chaviness. It's a bit like a chav walking down the street with a copy of Bertrand Russell’s ‘Icarus’, you wouldn't expect him to be an intellectual would you? It would be absolutely clear that he’d nicked it off his last victim and was intending to bash someone on the head and nick their mobile.

 

I hope you still got ya peas!
 
No, bunged them in a temper, but my wife has bought me a new one. Cheap, but beggars can't be choosers.

The highlight of mine was a flying lesson in a motion 737-300 simulator at OAA! I also got various DVDs, and money, which i'll probably put towards an FS addon. At the moment i'm torn between PMDG 747-400X, or Real Environment X (two totally different addons I know!)
Kind regards,
Tom

...the pleasure of seeing my son's face light up when he came into the room... Smile

...and of course, I got to play with the PS3 as well - he's sitting on the couch next to me playing Soul Calibur IV at the moment, Darth Vader v's Siegfried Big%20smile

I myself had some books, chocs, smellies etc. and cash to put in my 'fund'...

I got mostly gift cards by request - iTunes - Amazon - Curry's/ Pc World
A fantastic T shirt from my American Friend
Itouch, which I bought a couple of weeks ago in the Apple sale (Plus our company has it's own staff page with extra discounts on Apple Thumbs%20Up)
Plus other small bits and pieces so I did really well.
I hope everyone has had a good Christmas so far, Uncle martin, better that you did not have those peas Tongue

Cheers

It's like I've always said, your attitude stinks.  Wink
 
As for the peas Uncle Mutley, I'm glad we didn't eat them too, they were as solid as a rock. Have a cheap one now, thanks to Michele, only £20 but does the job.
 
Regarding my task, half done, Dan's at home from uni so he's hogging my PC.
