Postby phillwilson » Sat Dec 27, 2008 12:41 pm

ok, just a bit of geek talk, wondered if anyone wanted to spout about what their santa brought them.

this was my first surfing christmas, which meant finally people had an activitys worth of equipment to use as gift ideas,
I got

1. Skate Longboard (useful for training)
2. Surf Guide of UK and Ireland
3. Changing mat / bag
4. Turbo tunnel (well,an iou...its in the post)
5. Hang Air drying-hanger
6. New rashie
7. changing robe
8. new towel
9. single fin DVD
and
10 H3O game on PS2

so over all I have had a massivly lucky and fun christmas, I just need to get out.

hope you all had a wonderful christmas.

I got a cuddly duck that you can catapult across the room, which quacks as it flys. It scared the life out of the cat :D.

Some of you guys and gals did real well. I didn't get a thing, however, surfing beautiful Christmas afternoon was really all I needed.

bought myself a 9'4...cuz I knew no one would get me one.

I did get a gift cert for my local skate park $150.00...I will hit the pro shop to set myself up a new skate, and have some left over to go hurt myself.

A two week visit from the mother in law :cry: which resulted in excessive time spent in the middle of nowhere fishing which resulted in a couple of nice trout and a really nice salmon.

A new clarinet and the stormriders surfguide plus some money which will hopefully be spent on some new snowboarding gear.
