Mostly sweets, it's kind of a tradition in our family to not spend too much money for Christmas...

Santa paid for:
- The registration (and insurance) on my car for the next 6 months;
- A digital keyboard (the piano kind, not the computer kind)
- An all expenses paid trip to the Gold Coast (a different part of Australia) that i'll be starting this thursday


Go santa! :D

Ahhh yes I wonder who else has got a new PC for Christmas :P

Assassins Apprentice by Robin Hobb. This seems kind of cheap actually, my brother bought me this and it's the first of a trilogy, now that I'm going to read it, I'll then have to buy the next two.

Runaway. Played for about 15 minutes, looks to be very good.

Tony Hawks Underground 2 Remix for PSP, good, but I'd have prefered another game.

Pocket case cover protector thing for my PSP to stop the screen from getting scratched.

And 150 bucks.

-Lots of food
-Thud, by Terry Pratchett
-A white silk scarf (:w00t:)
-A Kraftwerk DVD (for some reason)
-Family Guy, Stewie Griffon - the Untold Story
-An "Interducing Philosopy" book (I yet to figure out why)
-A ?20 HMV voucher

And I also benefit from the presents of the rest of the family, which include some Buster keaton DVDs, and Creature Comforts, series 1.

mmmm food is good :P

Yes food is good.

We had a very big lunch with roast turkey, roast lamb, roast beef, and a honey glazed ham, a large number of baked potatoes and pumkins and sweet potatoe, followed by chocolates, cakes, trifles, custard, coffee and a nice short game of Anti-Monopoly.

I ate way too much ham.

As do I. I bought the first volume of Danger Mouse DVDs for my brother, and he does like Danger Mouse, but I'll probably watch them more than him. Also my mum got a Cairo Jim book that I'd very much like to read. And my dad got a new record player which I'm sure will find some use from me.

Mostly clothing. Amongst that a new Levi's501, new, FITTING leather gloves for driving and by far the coolest jacket in the world... :D

Some DVDs I was too cheap to buy myself so far.

Some money which will be spent on some more clothes and/or new shoes beginning of next year.
