go on then, whats the best present you got this year?! My fav has to be an electric 4x4 off roader, great fun rolling it head first down stairs etc

Presents you bought for yourself dont count, but im sure we'd still love to hear about them!

Best I've recieved so far is proabably a haynes mug

But due to the post service at this time of year my main present, a suspension kit for the polo, didn't arrive in time. Hopefully that will be the best.

Damn people get annoyed at me putting MONEY on the xmas list all the time! All I really wanted was a clutch for the indy! Otherwise, the Dylan Moran DVDs are pretty good.

Long weekend (almost a week) in Salsburg with two gorgeous women (my best friends unfortunately). Probably won't spend much time there as one of them has a friend who's a tour rep so hopefully we'll find a nice white mountain nearby
