Ulyseeeeees 31 Box Set sounds awesome.

I didn't actually get anything, since I'm not at my parents place this year.

Though they did give me some money, but that's from my late grandma. Hrm.

I bought Jak 3 for myself yesterday, plus Need for Speed Underground 2 for my brother. Which he is playing now. Happy moment!

Loads of gubbins for my new car

Nebbie · Post by **Nebbie** » Sat Dec 25, 2004 8:10 pm

I got my X-Box!! And my workout game!! YAYY!!

Mostly I got sweatshirts. Guess I was complaining a bit loudly about how I had to give all mine to Goodwill cause they were too big. Which is a very good thing, don't get me wrong, but it did leave me without a lot of warm clothes in what looks like is going to be a very cold winter (for us anyway)

Now all I need is ROTK and I'll be perfectly happy. And if I don't get it, I'll get it the moment I get back from vacation.

*goes to work out*

Post by **Kaylee** » Sat Dec 25, 2004 9:04 pm

I got:

From dad:
Energon Omega Supreme (who's now combined with Prime AND Prime's trucks AND Star Sabre to make one huuuge robot!)
G1 Jazz reissue (only 9.99 in TRU)
Some aftershave

From mom:
2 nice warm tops

And my uncle Mark got me some more aftershave (which is cool) and some clothes. Mysteriously all extra large. I later found out he bought them for himself

I don't ask for much other than someone gives me some thought, not even necessarily a gift. Ho hum. I was pleased with the aftershave though, it's nice to be thought of

My friend Tristan got me an Energon Starscream and a cool incense burner

I got:

Dad a signed photograph of Brian Wilson
Mom got a tea-plant (grows up to a peppermint tea plant

)
Mom's husband (Glen) got a nice set of Inspiration Tea teabags (I was in a tea theme

)
My Gran on that side got a nice pot-plant.
My housemate Sally got the Marvel 'Mighty Thor' DVD
Tristan got my Alternator Smokescreen. He's loved it ever since he first saw it

Grandad on my dad's side got 2 boxes of chocolates (from all of us) and Gran on that side got some posh bath salts.

Best of all I got lots of txts wishing me a nice day from lots of people

It's nice to actually feel popular.

Gag t-shirt and money from my brother. Tshirt says "CULT LEADER: Do as I say and everybody gets hurt". It's a tad big but I quite like it.

Dark Vanilla perfume from my sis. Smells ******* fantastic, it does... love it!

HotWheels display model- cherry red 2004 Viper SRT-10. very very pretty.
Chocolates, bath stuff and the usual from my parents and other assorted relatives. Ooh, and a ceramic bunny container from my mother with two silvertone necklaces and a bracelet in it. Was nice.

The stuff I got is cool but I think I had more fun giving this year... I'm just incredibly tickled with the presents I gave to my nieces. Two giant stuffed unicorns with purple and pink saddles-they're bigger than the three-year old is, and they just love 'em.

So far I got...

And money, clothes, drink and sweeties.

So I shall be wealthy, warm, drunk and sticky-fingered this Christmas-time, just like a Member of Parliament.

-U2's new alnum
-Got cash off my parents so I brought a PS2 with GTA:SA, RAw vs Smackdown and Pro Evolution 4.
-Lots of nice clothes (My sis must have picked them)
-Peter Sellars DVD: The pink panther series (randomly missing the 3rd best film

)
Wine kit.
More clothes
DVD of The office crimbo special and Little Britian.
Also LotR:RotK:EE-I gave it to a friend as I have it already.

I'd love thoset Bill Hicks CD's Besty, as I've heard it of some neibours (who are also constantly stoned) many times. Some bits are already on his DVD's however mostly not available elsewhere.

I think that's. i did get loads of sweets and chocolates from the kids. That also means I'll spend the last of my crimbo money on gym membership.

I think I know that ep... With Tiamat?... damned if I know the name though. That's an awesome episode. Hank pussies out, ha ha!

I also got a Perceptor figure (original one, from my first youngest brother-completely unexpected and really cool!) a foot-pampering kit (awesome girly-type stuff) and an exercise bike (I had fun with my cousin's exercise bike when we went to the city in the summer so I asked him where he got it- my mother told me to hold off on getting one then as she'd get me one for Christmas so I did... didn't think she'd be able to get it really, so actually getting it was so cool. Same kind, too... new though.

) as gifts this year!

It was a good year for gettin'.

I'm sitting here in my bath robe I got yesterday.
Yes, of course; besides the robe, I'm naked.

BB Shockwave · Post by **BB Shockwave** » Mon Dec 27, 2004 10:40 am

You lucky chaps...

I'm too old to get TFs as gifts anymore from my parents. Nonetheless, I got some cool stuff, like a salt lamp (crazy as it sounds...), pyjamas, DVDs of retro eastern block cartoons (hey, we under the soviets grew up ont that!

) a bread-baking machine and lots of books.

There were some TFs though, last week I got an Overlord handgun and a Powermaster Prime's shoulder gun left from an earlier trade, and I traded a G2 Blaze and Sidetrack for G2 Flamefeather and (MC) Hammer! Yo!

gee glad to hear that everyone got games and toys they liked, all I got was 3 lousy long sleeve shirts and one of them doesn't fit.

can't exchange that, because the gift receipt is missing.

all I bought for myself was a VF1S 3rd-issue from Yamato Toys and the Fast Pack to accompany it, and that's my b-day gift for earlier this month of dec.

i still have to buy my own x-mas gift that I want...

I guess this payday, I will splurge for myself.

(new hard drive and case, here I come).
