24 Redemption

Not a bad haul if I may say so. Mind you, as I don't own 24 season 6 yet and 24 Redemption is the prequel for season 7 there's a minor ****-up there, but what the hey.

That's not including the stocking stuff.

Me grinch na i love christmas and with 5 kids how could i not,im just not needy.I dont need the wife to buy me something i dont need to tell me she loves me,she takes it up the garry for that.I also tell the kids not to buy me anything because i want for nothing,my life is good and a scarf would not make it any better even a nice one.
I had a great christmas as did my family but i just dont need presents,sorry im wierd or am i?
 
not weird at all mate. To be honest the kids are what xmas is for, as an adult if you want something you can buy it yourself

Spot on, there's a deeper happiness than the quick smile a present can bring

My family don't go in for presents much, it's basically a few token gifts. Did get the DVD of Amelie off of one friend though. Not seen it before, so was something to enjoy whilst waiting for dinner

Spot on BS. I got a few token bits and bobs and a decent torch for work which was just what I wanted and was split between the wife, daughter and father-in-law. Other than that my day was made happy by watching the delight on my daughters face, a huge great dinner (which I cooked) and a nice relaxing day. Couldn't have asked for more.

Also spot on. If I want something then I go and buy it. That way I get what I want and not what someone else hopes I want.
