Someone had to start one of these......let the records show it was me!

So come on guys, share with the world your haul from "Santa".

I never got anything hobby related.........


.......but I did manage to score 2 cans of cold Beer. Thats real, cold 5% alcohol beer. Which is like platinum hens teeth here. One for me, one for my room-mate. SHHHHH don't tell the fuzz!!!!!!

Nothing remarkable I know but to me it's almost as good as being home with my family.

Almost!

I scored three packs of renegade militia arms (time to order some torsos!), 2 packs of Cadian Shotgun vets and a manticore. The father in law also sent me the customary £50 gift voucher so I am a happy bunny.
Non GW wise, all the usual stuff, chocs, alchohol, DVD's and clothes.

not opened everything yet but i did get some Marvel pajamas that are awesome, a couple of bottles of Pear Cider, Transformers 2 (Megan Fox), Dollhouse (Eliza Dushku) and a Rachel Stevens Calendar. i also managed to bend my knee the wrong way when standing to get the calendar, so i think that there is some Karma at work.

on the hobby front, i got a large drybrush and i know there is a camera and a collectors edition model in the pile. somewhere :)

Nothing hobby related as usual.

Got laptop case, outdoor jacket, jumper, ordnance survey maps, first aid kit, gloves, 510 biking shoes, thermal mug, chocolate oranges.

Not a bad haul, and all useful stuff.

Some lovely shirts, a new watch, select Philip K. Dick and Vonnegut, buncha chocolate, some fancy socks. GW gift voucher, likewise Borders. Call of Duty 4. Floral print curtains.

I got my most vital co-conspirator a Device For Exploding The Moon*, and everyone else some KY Jelly**.

*It's actually just a small cardboard box with a button drawn in the center and a label that says "Press Here to Explode the Moon".

**Except my family, 'cos that'd be weird and gross. I got them candles and pictures of me and normal stuff.

I got nothing hobby related, but I scored some new clothes. I also got 1000 Danish crowns (120£, I think), but my shoes broke today so they are earmarked for a new pair.
