Christmas house rule? - don't buy Grumpy anything that smells or can be worn - works for me.
Basic rundown of my pressies this year: A new Nitro truck (Tamiya TNX), an indoor mini helicopter(Picooz), Revells HMS Victory (the set in the big box with the paints etc) couple of books by Cussler, Clarkson dvd and loads of vouchers for the local model shop, led head torch ( look like a prat - but at least I can see!)
Mind you, If I spent on myself what I spent on her and the 'kids' - I could have had at least triple, but that's against the spirit of Christmas...isn't it?
Glad it's over, now the family bit's over I can get back in the garage.
Happy New Year to you all !
