So far I have Brandon one of these, with this, this, and this to play. No doubt I'll spend the next few months dodging this, while Doctor Who features heavily again this year, as do Power Rangers and Ben 10. Throw in some Transformers too. Then add in all the other various stuff I'll pick up as stocking fillers (traditionally cheap stuff from Toys R Us swords guns and the like), along with book vouchers, clothes and such and it's a hefty hole in my bank balance. Worth every penny though, Christmas is fffffffffbbbb.

How old is your little boy?

Mine is 4 and all he wants is Spiderman and Power rangers, looking for more ideas really. If I take him shopping he wants everything, want to surprise him a little!

Ta!!

christmas freaking rules. might brave the Trafford Centre tomorrow and try and get as much as possible done. dad's getting a dvd, a golf glove and other golf bits, sister's getting some stuff specific to her current trip to new zealand, no idea about my other sister and my ma. desperately struggling for ideas for the girlfriend though, will have to wander around and hope inspiration hits me. so hard to buy for.

TC shouldnt be too busy yet on a week day. I usually go there too (only 20mins down the motorway) on a weekday in the run up to Christmas. Cant get any days off until mid Jan though

Brandon is six. Shopping for him was easy, just let him on the PC for a while, browsing various toy sites and he picked out a bunch of stuff he wanted.

christ gav, how much are you spending on your boy?

[michaelwoodcock]

About five hundred I guess.

Went to the Trafford Centre yesterday if that is anything to go by, I'm going to steer well clear over the next five weeks.
What is it about people when near shops that they lose the ability to walk in a straight line and have to stop every ten yards without warning?
Online sounds like a decent option but will be doing it early to make sure stuff gets delivered in time.

Almost finished the girlfriend's:

Scarface Novel: for some reason she likes gangster films.

Printed canvas of our first date

A clock with a picture of a cow on it, it's eyes sway with each second - got it cos it looked cool and she used to love visiting her Grandad's cows and for some reason liked the ones at the bottom of my garden...

Bunny Suicide Book

A card which says "want another fig pie, fatty?" She'll appreciate the humour.
