As usual I'm struggling 'entering into the spirit' of Christmas, usually it just washes over me like a cold wave ... help me out by telling me what the fat bloke in the red suit's bringing you, share the excitement and some might rub off on me

I'd start but sadly I don't have a Christmas list

i am just wishing for a bit of luck healthwise.
i have got pneumonia at present, so the El n Back is looking like a no goer at present. if i get a lot better quickly, i might do it and sleep in a b n b.

I'll be allowed my alpkit frame bag at Xmas.
Also a HH warm base layer and Traveltap water filter bottle.

Sorry to hear that Tony ... seems that if you didn't have bad luck, you wouldn't have any.

Hope you're feeling better soon.

Wife came back with a trespass carrier bag the other day and told me not to look in it on pain of death, haven't a clue what's in it.

Just gone apesh1t on the Warbonnet site with the CC. Oh dear

Here's hoping Customs miss it 8-)

What did you go for?

Blackbird, Ridge Runner and a Cloudburst Tarp.

Blimey!
You really did go to town.
I'd love to see what the fuss is about the Ridge Runner.

Pretty much exactlythe reason I bought it. If I hate it you get first refusal

Blackrock Gear down hat for me, plus some other bits and pieces.

Not gone mad this year as I did go to town a bit on the cyclocross build

I'm a bit like you Stu, tonight we have been getting the tree out of the attic, setting it up, putting lights on, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, the point is that the wife noticed I was not really into the spirit of it all so suggested opening a pressie from one of her relatives, a lovely bottle of red, she must have known. I am now more in the christmas spirit :D .

If only I drank Ray
