Default Online Crimbo Shopping - best year ever...

Well I can say my butt defintely got bigger this year because until now all
my pressies have been mail order. I must by some shares in insert courier
company here, because this has been my best year Crimbo shopping ever.

Even given the 20 minute wait at ****tyLink depot (Sydenham).

Now I still have to brave the shops for the few remaining pressies ....

Seconded. All done in a few hours from the comfort of my study. Only
thing is why has it taken me so long to work this out...?

Yeah but I cringe to thing how many people are unwrapping a computer
bit or a book from amazon... A second hand palm vx, a faster modem, a
512mb memory card for sisters new digital camera and a fixed psion and
I'm starting to look rather narrow minded.

Oh and father christmas has put a handy usb extension lead with a
holder for your usb memory stick in two stockings (2.98 from ebuyer)
to save people bending over.

I just don't feel like I'm giving fun...

Ouch.. Too close to home ... After ordering it I told GF I might get her a
17" TFT. Lets just say she was less than enamoured.. I meant to cancel it -
but I think it has a place next to the one I just bought myself.

Think I might get her some massage sessions .. not in Kings Cross

Fortunately mine actually wanted something slightly techy/spoddy - one
of those little USB MP3 players )
