I have a sneaky suspicion I have got a Wii and Guitar Hero World Tour

Does that count as a toy?

My best pressie was 3 years ago, missus got me the massive Lego Technic Enzo, I didnt have a clue and it took me right back, superb surprise, kept me busy for ages, proved to me you can still be a kid at whatever age, this year its a PS3 and 9 games.

A 911 Turbo would be about the best I could get.

I've got an ice maker! Fifty quid off at Argos. Takes six minutes to make eight icecubes. I'm sick of having no ice because i only drink cold drinks, except a coffee occasionally when i eat steak.

We're off to Tenerife on tue till new year, and wifey said she'll treat me at the airport on the way out. Hopefully, it won't be from boots or burger king!

A new colour changing kettle (it was a present, actually), and a new cordless BT home phone (bought by myself). The old one (only a year old) had croaked it
They are my toys

I really really fancy a Sony Rolly... I have no idea why and think I will play with it on Christmas Day and it will go in the draw after that, never to see the light of day again.

Myself and Mrs T4 had (sort of) agreed not to get each other anything this year due to the arrival of our daughter....

So... so far Mr T4 nowt, but care of Mr Santa Claus, Mrs T4 is getting some bling from Tiffany's!!!

Looks a lot like the muscle cars street racing on Grid which I have got on the PC. Great fun hanging the tail out in great big long slides, very satisfying.

Very much cheaper than the Leica version which is $400 more....just for having the Leica badge (I kid you not!!!!). It's a fantastic piece of kit Pete.

A mate of mine bought one of those a couple of weeks ago - pleased with it?

For me:

An Xcel Infiniti 5/4/3mm Winter wetsuit (my last one died),



Also just spent £300 on my MTB (replaced the entire drivetrain that wore out - 3000 miles in just over a year) and... errrmmmm.... that's it!
