A gift card from our daughter which was a nice surprise.

A sort of joint present for my wife and I of the latest Game of Thrones DVD. Looking forward to watching this as there's sod all of interest on the telly over the next few days.

We had quite a few family round so had a busy, but good, day.

Through the magic of Amazon wish list, I got quite a bit of gaming stuff:

Bolt Action Rule Book
Bolt Action Armies of Great Britain and Battlegroup Europe books
An Osprey on Market Garden
And a couple of the new Casemate Past and Present books on the British Airborne (these have a huge number of photos in)

There seems to be a bit of a theme with the above!

The missus gave me a very nice bottle of cognac to fuel the old gray cells when thinking of new projects for the new year.
