2008 Christmas pressie haul!
Shiny new kettle - looks exactly like shiny old kettle, only less melted and green. Has all-important glass so I can cackle like a maniac when the descaler makes it go all fizzy. *does the descaler boogie*
Alarm clock powered by battery, and alarm clock powered by mud.
DVDs of Takin' Over the Asylum, released at last (thankyou David Tennant, for getting famous ^_^), and Independence Day special edition (wot?) and the Die Hard quadrilogy, and Pirates III.
Books: The Frozen Thames, which is historical fiction via random vignette, v cute :-D Alastair Reynolds - Revelation Space, Ivan's latest attempt to make me read proper sci-fi published after 1975. China Mieville - Looking for Jake, Ivan's previous attempt and a general success. ^_^ Cookbook from my brother (you know you're in trouble when your LITTLE BROTHER buys you a cookbook because he is worried about your health), which I have actually cooked something from, despite the fact that this required me to purchase vegetables.
Warm pyjamas with frogs on, Jane's latest attempt to deal with my apparent post-mortem temperature issue.
Crowley perfume. Yes, that Crowley. Don't ask. ^_________^
