What do you want for Christmas?

You can't leave us hanging with that one, I'm too excited to know now!

It's just a table den. Not particularly exciting but a labour of love that grew to be a bit ambitious. We have a pool table the sprogs like to play under so this thrns it into a house.

Sprogs are 17 months and 3 1/2. I will attempt to upload photos.

That's brilliant, I'm sure they'll love that!
Well done on all that effort too (y)

The little dude is also getting a spiderman doll. Spiderman may well win over the table den that took a ridiculous number of hours to plan and execute.

I'm betting he takes spiderman into the den to "play"
in his own little world :)

Thank you, I'm very much looking forward to that thing called a full nights sleep again.

That really is brilliant! You can can see there's so much work gone into it. They're going to love it :D
 
I'd love a Samyang fisheye, but I'm happy no matter what materialises - just as long as it's not socks!

Congrats Ben, my little one is 14 months now, but it was a good 6 months until we had a full nights sleep :D

I'd like socks, I don't have a single pair without holes in.

I was there when my mrs bought my presents, a GoPro and some astro binoculars, but no doubt there'll be a few surprises. Possibly drinkable surprises.:D
 
A naked fit chef to cook dinner for me, would be quite nice:D
 
Some artistic ability. However after 70 years waiting I don't hold out much hope.
 
Pass me the Bisto, baby.


I need your clothes, your boots and your kenwood chefette.

Nothing really, I'm the worst person to buy for as I tend to just buy what I want when I want it however yesterday I did order a shiny new photo printer that my dad purchased for me as my Christmas present, which was meant to be delivered today however it seems the amazon and myself have different definitions of what is acceptable as next day delivery :(

this time of year amazon delivery often goes to pot.

Indeed, but they've been particularly spectacular in there cock up and subsequent complete tosh there customer services have spouted, my suspicion is that the printer has gone out of stock and they know they'll have some more in shortly...

Basically below is what was discussed with them earlier when communicating with their CS Department :lol: copied from my Facebook

For the first time since being an Amazon customer I've had crap service on a delivery, to the point that one customer service person suggested I'd only paid for expedited delivery for part of the order...yeah because you can do that FFS
then a different agent saying I must have ordered it too late on Wednesday for next day delivery, okay that could be the case, it's not as there was still several hours on the time clock for ordered before the deadline for next day delivery, but that aside, it doesn't make sense that if it's to late to dispatch and order for next day delivery on the Wednesday that you then skip the whole of Thursday and don't plan to dispatch it until Friday....
Very unimpressed
 
well you see sir the thing is our delivery driver was driving along minding his own business but there was this TR6 ... your printer will now be delivered in 8 different parcels just as soon as SOCO are done with it it... our apologies for any convenience inadvertently caused...

Come on there's only so many TR6s left at some point they'll have to start to destroy something like an MGB :P

They'd better mind those TR7's though, they have a sloping nose,
Oh hang on. They could have "jumped that" instead of playing rolly polly :thumbs:

You've seen the Gymnastics, where the judges hold up the score cards for
artistic interpretation etc?
I can just see the insurance company doing that too :D

Indeed, but I only scored 6 points with my last effort :P
 
I can cook (and I'm sure all will be relieved that I'm not going to post the unedited version of my mask and snorkel selfie) but I'm not sure Mrs Nod will lend me out and I'm even more sure that T. can't afford my hourly rates!!! Besides, we're going out for christmas lunch with the MiL.

Good! That it makes you look like an extra for that crap ABBA movie thingy :p
(Which in itself I'm sure was / would be far scarier than a Nood Nod )
