Although it appears everyone on here had already bought their own presents long before, I'm sure some people must have had the odd interesting surprise.
I got one of these ... budget pack-rafting disaster here we come

garmin edge touring plus to replace my failing 800
wine, chocolates, bobble hats
and a day of waiting on the inlaws for less than miniumum wage, nothing in fact but the opportunity to allow them to drink my wine and then do all the washing up
its fair to say I hate xmas

A full set of decathlon thermals. Also some nice warm overshoes. Oh and both a balaclava and a beanie. Think people think it might be chilly on the Ford Fiesta

A box of 48 Fry's chocolate creams. Feel a bit sick now.
And socks. And a cd I've been after for a while.

Smellies, whisky, some sealskin socks and a base layer for me.
I second the idea of an official launch of Stu's boat. We could swing a packet of cous cous against the bow.

I got the explorer Hotpogs. Impressed the map pockets are on both sides. Hoping they should be enough with Sealskin Lobster gloves!

I get cold hands, even in the summer, so thought these would be best for me. Feel write thin, so hope they're warm. Wish they had the map pockets though as I can see they would be handy. Can't wait to use them now

Not strictly bikepacking as it doesn't fit the small and light classification, but still outdoors gear.
