Anything wargame related I have to buy myself. This year it was 10mm Napoleonic figures which arrived on Monday.

Other than that I got:

Cash  :-bd
Luggage  ~X(
Spices :-bd
Stuff for the grill :-\

No clothes or gift cards this year. I would have rather received Best Buy gift cards so I can buy the Apple TV I keep yearning for.

Really sorry FK
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

We dont spend a lot on each other at Christmas but got some money that will be used to buy some stuff

Got a Gift card for some books!!  m/ m/

Sorry to hear about the kitten FK, What's wrong?

Luddite

Sorry to hear that FK.

My family are in the south and got hit with the power outage all over Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.  Luckily not flooded though so small mercies.

I got a nice haul of books, some card games, and because according to my family and in-laws, 'wargaming = GW', the usual haul of vouchers.  This year they'll come in handy for more than paint though.

Thats a real shame Kitty, I almost ended up with a puppy last year like that so I know how it feels.

I got some DVDs, some money and a suprise present coming from Los Angeles courtesy of my family who are out there. Not sure what to buy myself yet as I still have a big pile of books from my birthday and the ubiquetous lead mountain :-\.
