What did you buy "yourself" for Christmas?

Well my DH never buys for me as he never goes to the shops! Always tells me to buy myself something and hey-I do anyway! I went on Amazon and bought some DVDs. I do love watching concerts so I got the following:
2 Russel Watson
Cliff Richard 50th anniversary
2 Take that concers and a book by the Dalai Lama.
Oh I do like a selection.
Have listened to Russell, Cliff,Elvis,Johnny Cash,Robbie and Take That today.
Also bought myself 2 bottles of Baileys. The one with mint choc didnt taste any different to the original though so Im rather disappointed. Also bought an icecream maker so its more "treats" and night in, I think.What you you get yourself?:beer: :beer: :beer:
