And for once, the traditional present-swapping fiasco was fairly successful all round.
I got:
- 9 books (7 humour, 1 serious and 1 Edward Monkton, ie both)
- several horrific stripy shirts (well done Mum for keeping the receipts)
- some very smart clothes from my bro (who got a cooking set from me - each of us looking after the others' area of deficiency)
- a Groove Glove, from one of my Consultants (I don't know which is more disturbing, that he thought it would be suitable for me or that I love it!)
The presents I bought were well received too (I got my brother a signed print from the excellent cartoon site Perry Bible Fellowship and I got Adam a Dance Dance Revolution game & mat for his PC.)
But Mum outdid us all by getting Sarah one of these incredible bags (makes up for the autobiography of Mother Theresa that Mum got me a few years back.)
Most importantly we all had several relaxed, quality family days together.
But sod that; next step - buy everything in THE SALES!!
(My brother & I have already spent 3 hours in Fopp earlier this week! Woohoo!)
