We got enough sweets/chocloate/toffee to make us 10 stone heavier. We got enough alcohol to keep us merry 'til next Christmas and enough smellies to keep us smelling nicely untill...I can't think of an until!
Jon
Oh...and a few DVD's to keep us entertained for a good few months
Also some money, which is always nice. Jon got me some pink stripey pyjamas that make me look like a giant (somewhat misshapen) stick of rock, a necklace, a sequin scarf thingy and travel ludo

"Nothing in biology makes sense, except in the light of evolution" - T. Dobzhansky
Santa brought me a fancy effects unit for my bass guitar (which was later deemed to be a big mistake since I've been playing with it incessantly) and a very rare Devin Townsend CD (which was later deemed to be a big mistake etc etc...)
I've just realised I never posted what I got! Mostly it was stuff for the house. We got a very nice knife set, some serving dishes, cookbooks and doorbell!!?! :? I also got Simpsons Scrabble and some other bits and bobs
It's pretty much the same as normal scrable, except that the tiles are yellow and the tile racks are red.
oh yeah, and the board is double-sided, one side is normal Scrabble, and the other side is real Simpsons scrabble where all the premium tile spaces have been jumbled up and there are quadruple & quintuple letter socres....and quaruple word scores...and quite of them are close together, so you could get a double-triple word score.
and you have special card that can get you extra points (or take them away from your opponents)
needless to say, the scores can end up quite a bit higher than your average game of scrabble :shock:

I got a metal detector! And a digital dictaphone. And an Eeyore that flaps its ears and sings. That's a lot of fun...
