Re: What you get for Christmas
I got all the usuals (socks and smellies) but nothing too big this year as things are planned for next year so money is a bit more tighter this year.

I did get a remote for my SLR which will be used a lot.

Let me know what the PC version of GTA4 is like, not heard anything about it yet.

The homemade presents are always the best.

I can't eat chocolate, which sucks, but they have bought me loads of fudge and smelly stuff for the bath.
