bought myself that cheap '100 garage classics' cd from HMV. 75% killer tunes for £12.99. Bargain!

edit: Oh and Torq/connectiv dj software, how could I forget?

I always get money from my olds and buy my own presents. Not really in the festive spirit I suppose...

Seriously fucking jealous of you right now.

I am jealous of all of you - my present haul was seriously small in comparison. A T Shirt, some toffees, cheese, a book (Paris Review Interviews vol4) and a rather cool SAG Messenger bag.

I know we are not meant to say this but I think I gave much better presents than I received!

I got loads of stuff. I am a spoilt bastard and I parade around in a little Victorian sailor suit while my loving, fawning family shower me with gifts.

I got Volume 2 of the Paris Review thingy what jenks got.

My presents have been scattered around far-flung relatives in a (vain) bid to blackmail me into a visit. No one who actually sees me more than biannually gave me anything :(
