    I feel a bit guilty this year as the boys only have a few pressents to open as they are getting an electronic drum kit between them with an amp.

    They usually have lots to open but there looks nowt there:o

    I really dont want to start buying stuff to open for the sake of it though, apart from their main present they only have 4 small presents.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Woohooo my kids Heeleys have been despatched. Probably wont make it for Christmas, but wont be long.

    I was sounding DS out about them, and he said he'd love some, but 'have you any idea how much they cost' ;)
