Cool

So far some clothes. Lots of alcohol and chocolate - I think they may be trying to kill me off

New pair of ramps with the wee hydraulic Jack's that lift the car another 4inch, new face shield for grinding. The ubiquitous socks and undercrackers.

Well this was from me to me - collected from a guy arriving from
Belgium on the Shuttle at Folkestone services on Thursday evening - a 4.5 hour round trip but totally worth it!

A bottle of exquisite Calvados from Tanners.

Signed book about one of my favourite sports cars the Unipower GT, hot of their press.

Chocs

A Mecano race car kit for over 8 year olds, and novice grade, my daughter don't you know.

A black beanie hat with variable led lamp on the front, could be rather useful!

The amount of chocolate changing hands in our house yesterday was obscene. I lost 2 stone this year. I think they want me to put it all back on.

I got...

Omicron.

How unfortunate.

I will now have to stay at home with the dog, cupboards full of treats and full control of the TV while the wife takes the children to visit her various sisters.

Good to look on the positive side!

My son tested positive on Friday so haven’t seen him this Christmas and won’t for a week
