Xmas presents

Sat, 24 Dec 2011 21:45:39 GMT

Right lets just see who actually gets some usefull skiing stuff from Santa or whether he will just bring his regular shit.

Every year I ask the mrs to tell the usual jumper suspects that I cant effin stand knitwear.

Guess what....................I still get the jumpers

I hope some of you have better luck than me.

Well I got another effin jumper and the worst of the jumper breed aswell............

A V neck one with a fake t shirt sewn around the neck area.

Did get a Helly Hansen base layer so not a complete waste of a day.

I think I said it in such a way that the in laws may have finally got the message..............

'Oh wow, thats going to be my favourite jumper from now on. I will wear it everywhere I go and for bed tonight for sure. I feel really bad now I only bought you a sat nav'

New ski gloves, several years overdue, I may not get frostbite on my thumbs this year.
Ski socks, which I rarely wear. I recently bought a couple of pairs of lightweight merino socks to try. It's the thought that counts.
Ipod, 10 x the capacity of my current one ~ well needed, and now loaded with Alpine favourites.
Tennis raquet bag, so I can put the bits of my old one straight in the bin.
Verdi CD ~ including Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves ~ my favourite ski tune/song.
Reg D Hunter DVD, good apres ski recreation.

Send the socks this way, I did not get any.

In fact. Excellent idea. A Christmas ski swap shop.

You can put socks in, nutty his jumper. I will have your socks. I have a pair if driving gloves?

Giving my ski socks away would lead to a quick divorce.
Apart from my Wildschonau Racing Club sweater, (golden dragons on the sleeve, and madetory) I don't do jumpers, just lightweight merino Trying to get my luggage down to 12 kgms, including boots.

My mum sent me some money so I can replace the ski poles that I left on a bus last week.

And that's about it.
