A watch, 3 pairs of shoes, a wall clock with a 4 foot diameter, a belt and chocolates.

I also got another 4kg to my weight and 2 inches to my wait line :(....

Returning from a 7 day cruise last week with all food inclusive was not a good start to the holidays :(

Rabbit food for the next 2 weeks, no ifs, no buts.... I'm down to my last notch on my belt, old and new :(

A bottle of home brew, a couple of shirts, bought myself a 32" Panasonic HD LCD screen for $43 and a 2007 BFII XT.

All in all, a disappointing Christmas.

It's the name of a crystal company from Austria. (also a great thing to keep in mind if you're stuck for gifts for a female...)
http://www.swarovski.com/Web_AU/en/0...ing&na_os=main

They make all kinds of things, figurines, vases, wine glasses, jewellery...
I collect the figurines, and now have about 30, as well as 8 or 9 of their annual limited edition Christmas stars.
This is the dragon I got today:

I had a bit of a good one this year, ended up with 4 1:18 Biante cars, FG01, FG Director, FG White Limited and XE Onyx Black. Plus 3 Marcus Ambrose Nascars, a Snorkel for the Troll, tools for the garage, and a new whizbang Citeck battery charge trickle thingy for the ZD. Think i did quite good. That was just from the wife.
