    Pah the UK edition of The Office was always and will always be better!!

    Didn't realise that it was called Axe in the US, thought it was only European countries that gave it that silly name. Either that, or we're the only country that call it 'Lynx'

    Darlene, I have an older Nikon Coolpics camera, 5200 I think looks very similar except mine is silver. Great little point and shoot digital camera!! Not hard to figure out. Mine does video, and will actually shoot a decent picture in total darkness. Think you will enjoy that! :-D

    Well, enjoy the camera, don't know if you like taking pictures in the dark.... :-D

    Darlene the secret to doing good pic's is, You don't ask you just aim and click. Get natural pic's they come out better. I have to pretend to be shooting at something else or sneek up on mine or he try's to "pretty pose" if he's nice and neat or turns and walks away if he is "grubby" as he says.LOL
    That is a nice looking camera though.
    I received 2 Grandma mug,Gator Calender & wrist watch,Targus Chill Mat for lappy,Belkin Router(got that early),my son for 3/4s of the day for the first time in over 7 years,(which is a big deal for me as he was always working or went to his best friends parents first then to me for deserts.) And just like PapaDuke lots of smiles from kids and grand kids. They are well worth it.

    Damn . . . me too! I guess Santa doesn't care about our carbon footprint, does he! (I guess it is kinda cold at the north pole . . . :-D).

    Actually,

    I got some Craftsman tools :drool to replace the ones that I have loaned to my kids and never found their way back to me; Pliers, vice-grips, channel locks, adjustable wrenches, 18pc screwdriver set - oh, and for the record, I compared the quality of a new phillips screwdriver with an exact model I have had for about 20 years . . . and I can't tell any difference save the plastic on the old one is yellowed a bit. Good on you, Craftsman!

    Various clothes (thank God for the women in my life . . . I never have to buy clothes LOL).

    Heck, I didn't even get coal :cry

    Serves me right, for leaving town on Christmas - and as the brat decided to tag along with her father, she got nothing too :-D

    Well at least she has a ton of stuff waiting for her back home. She's greedier than good old Zdawg :-D

    That laptop thing is neat Laura.


    I gained socks, undies, PJs, a few mugs (neat Pantone one, the designer in me and mug-a-holic, have a neat collection of MSFT ones, including all the in-house I'm a PC ones), £££ and a toiletry bag that I've needed for ages, travel a fair bit and just chuck stuff in a plastic bag! so all in all I'm happy as I never want anything anyway as I am a pain to buy for so anything is good.

    Did buy myself a netbook and HTC Windows phone just before xmas.

    roflmao @sikvik I didn't even notice the coffee cup. *makes the sign of the cross to ward away evil coffee spilling gods* :-D

    It's actually really comfy. It keeps my laptop breathing efficiently and it keeps my lap from frying. Oh, and it has a handy compartment for things you want to store.

    Yes, see link: http://www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts-apparel/interactive/c498/

    It sounds a bit tinny but has tone and volume controls.
    Hilarious. Should have gotten a drum t-shirt for the little old wifey.

    Christmas is suppose to be able family and health and etc. But if you want to know about xmas presents! Then I got pretty crappy ones. First I got 3 of the same video game for same system (1 cousin got off ebay 1 aunt got no receite). I got a shoe warmer (you rest your shows on two poles and I guess to keep then open and air to get in them( I dont know) :cry And 10 dollar gift card to food place(so 1 person can eat). Basically only thing I got good was clothes and I hate clothes on xmas.
