I got a doughnut maker, so when the other arrives I'd ordered myself because he said he wasn't buying me any 'house things' I'll have to send it back Got some money & a gift voucher for argos which hopefully won't get eaten up by bills so I can buy myself something with it. Got a few not OS presents aswell.

Hi Everyone,

Santa was very good to me!

I was given:

some wonderful Icebreaker skin 200 base layer thermals - OS because I'll be able to turn the heating down a bit.... they are made from non-itchy very fine merino wool, and so so comfortable..... bliss! The tops are a nice sort of cranberry red and a black one - could have had pale blue too. They are not cheap but will last for years.

A wind up torch

I was also given some money so will send off to the Orkney Angora wool company for some cosy socks as well.... it's been so cold up here, all I can think about is getting warm!!!

Also will purchase a wind-up radio, don't like batteries

There is a theme to this which I'll explain on another thread..... edited to say, it's the B*ggery Box thread - sorry can't do links!
