What have you all had for Christmas then??

Post by DaveB »

Morning Chaps and the seasons festivities to you all :wink:

What did Santa bring you this year then beside those 'oh so lovely' jumpers, socks and the odd shirt or two!! :lol:

Got a set of tiny Spitfires and a very impressive Corgi 1/72nd scale Lancaster which, unfortunately, is probably too big to go anywhere sensible :think: A nice touch is you flick a switch on the stand base and you hear Lancaster sounds, machine gun fire, bomb's going off while at the same time, searchlights come on and little orange lights show.. syncronised with the bomb sounds!! :lol: Ahhh.. it's good being a kid again.. albeit for a couple of minutes :wink:

Ah well.. you don't have the problem of clearing all that unsightly wrapping paper up :lol:

I also got a nice pressie off Lee.. a box set of 3 DVD's.. Spitfire, Hurricane and Mosquito. Thing is, there aren't any DVD's in the box :shock: Nice picture on the front anyway and the thought was there :lol:

I got 10 hours and 23 minutes of Planet Earth DVDs, Wildlife Photographer of the Year portfolio (I get that every year - well, not the same one, obviously :roll: ) and money towards a new camera.

Round to the out-laws for dinner so no cooking and cyberbrat says he'll let me play on the new Nintendo Wii later on when he's bored with it.

A perfect Christmas in the Speedbird household :dance:
