Yeah, I know it's not about that, but what was your favourite?
Mine was a big bag of home-made Vulcan bomber cookies & chocolate Mini Coopers from a lady friend at work. Really made me smile & are rather tasty too ...there may have been quite a few more when I unwrapped them.

Don't know about "Best" Xmas present, but here's a couple of "strangest" candidates, a 1944 Bren Gun magazine, and a late 40's NATO field telephone set!!  , why you may ask, no idea, except that my eldest son's prezzies are often quirky, to say the least, maybe he's trying to tell me something  , and these are just the latest! so......Morrag |

Best Christmas in a long while. 4 generations of family and I was the oldest one there! Invited them all back for New Year Lunch and they all said yes, wife is very happy. And if she is happy I'm happy. And Ralphy the bull terrier is happy too.
Happy New Year everybody !!

My Christmas pressie to myself arrived today. Perhaps not quite as unisual as Morrag's, and some might find it odd, but I love both engineering and old books
A near pristine, early copy of Machinerys Handbook. Not the 1914 first edition I have been looking for but this 1919 fith edition was in such good condition, I couldn't resist.
