You are very much on my wavelength young man. Which Xperia you get? I got the T in November. Awesome phone.

I soon found out that my girlfriend hates that game... When she has a headache... Because she drunk too much.... But who's fault is that?

I got this too, cannot stop playing it. Anyone with even a passing interest in guitars should get it.

Ohhh nice I have the same exact camera, but the model here in the US is called the Rebel T3 Smile

Its a really good camera, I use it for yearbook photography for my school since I'm the main photographer. I'm still a noob though learning a lot haha. There are a really good amount of settings to play with on the camera, and the quality of the shots are excellent Very Happy

I don't get gaming stuff any more. Got a pair of new boots and a shaver, and then the usual socks and what not.

But, to be honest, I have two brothers aged 5 and 10. For me, Christmas is all about playing with their stuff, which included an electric guitar.. I had a smashing time.

But other than that, the house is always stocked up with masses of good beer and steak. That's also very good stuff. I love Christmas. All that's left to do now is to get monumentally gazebo'd at hogmanay!

I can't remember the bells on the last two years!

I just remembered I got a 900g bag of dry roasted peanuts. I was given a bag last year too, I ate them all too quickly though (over the course of a few days) and... Well... Let's just say they came out faster then they went in. Yey, fibre content!
