Want a Duacti 1199 ;D , but will probably get socks :'( . Have my eyes on another mod for the cruiser but it's a one of custom build so I won't have a chance of getting it before Xmas.

I have bought all my families and friends a stainless steel double walled drinking mug by avanti (trying to think of the name of the style) I bought one for myself fell in love with it, it so great to drink out of, keeps the tea nad coffee hot, the cold drinks cold. Bought myself another to keep in the camper permenately and one for everyone else, will have to but other stuff to go with it, but ordered a heap from Peters at Kensington on line. Got delivered to the door. zhow good is that!

Luke Skywalker is all in a tizz.
Darth Vader told him "I know what you're getting for Christmas"
"No, no!.. ..How do you know?"
Darth says ..............."I felt your presents"

After 10 years of little aths, and 5 years of Soccer (where both home and away games meant 4 hours travelling), I know where youre coming from.
Fortunately, there is a life after raising kids. We're just starting to enjoy it. Stay focussed!!

Baaaar humbug >:(

All I want is the Camp 6 book with the pics - easy! I'm not sure what my other half wants, I'm sure he will let me know. :angel:
-
I'm getting a new car! :cup:
-
My wife went out and bought herself a new watch today.
When I asked her how much it was she said it could be her Christmas present from the boys and I (I'm not looking forward to the VISA bill!!!). At least I don't have to do my usual frantic X-mas Eve shopping spree now!!
What would I like - I'm not really sure, but I know what I will get: a shirt, tie, and socks.
-
What I would like >:D and what I will get :'( are two different things. As long as the kids are happy :angel:, I have a cold beer :)and the wife a wine :). All's good. :cheers:
-

Yeah but unfortunately you had to buy it your self, or did you??????
I hope you get some good presses, you deserve them :cup:
-
We're having a brickie coming around to build in our new stainless steel BBQ with hood. That's our pressie to each other. No need for anything else. BBQ's all year long (when we're not away camping).
For the rest of the family we try to buy small but meaningful presents: a personalised calendar for Dad (you make them online with your own photos) and the promise of a wildflower season camping trip for Mum.
My brother has no sense of community spirit whatsoever, and so we have bought him an Oxfam Unwrapped gift - which is two goats for a village in Cambodia. They are great presents and maybe he will learn something (or not?).
:cheers:

Well, this is true but...at least this way, I get what I want!
Thanks for that Carl...you're very kind! :cheers:

Better put a sign up.. I don't think Santa knows where Tanny is.

i would like to go out in the KK and enjoy some quality family time, unfortunately i dont have any time off work or the funds to do it, let alone time...........
some time would be nice
-
No point putting up a sign ...we wont be here ......
No one knows where Tanny is ...... I like it that way! :D

For each other we have bought a Cub Supamatic Escape which we pick up in 2 weeks time ;D. The kids will be getting sleeping gear for the camper, inlaws getting a set of Maxtrax. Loved Christmas shopping this year.
-
Boring I know but with the amount of time I spend away from the family all I want is for the kids to be happy and the wife to have a smile on her face :cheers:

We're getting two Camfaro 12v Sorroco fans and of course our new Aussie Swag camper, although she won't be here until April.

My wife used her christmas bonus to buy me a Tamron 200-500 zoom lens for the Sony her Christmas bonus bought 2 years ago...
-
Scott and I have just booked the Triton in for a dual battery system, canopy and new UHF. That's our xmas present to each other financed by the tax man. The daughter and her boyfriend are getting a double swag so they will stop pinching ours, and some gear for their new home. The 21 year old son is the problem - I haven't got a clue what to buy him ???
:cheers: Glenyse

This'll do.

You've obviously met my son. I'm sure he'd love unwrapping that one. :-[

Christmas came early. The BBQ is good to go. What do you think?
-
Nice BBQ!
The better half got me front row tickets to the Saturday Top Gear show in Perth last week 8) and I am paying for her share of a four day road trip with her closest friend in January. Kids will get spoilt as usual.

That looks the goods Stozz. No need for indoor cooking again :cup:
Our boys are grown up now, no more need to buy 'things' so they don't feel left out from the masses.
B'days are much more important & have more meaning ;)

We bought all our pressies in the states....1 of the girls toys must be switched on as a suit case had
jingles and voices coming from it. had to quietly explain to customs the noises.
Wife bought herself jewelry and a kindle and i will get a webber q100 tomorrow.
-
Got a 12V rattle gun for Dad-in-law who worries that he isn't strong enough anymore to change a tyre.
DH went to ARB on Saturday 'to get a winch extension strap'. As soon as he came back he locked himself in the spare room and emerged with wrapped presents for me. I haven't seen the extension strap yet. Wonder if it's under the tree ???

Gave the Missus a gold ring and I got -

The inlaws bought us a Weber Q 220 for the swan - got it early and had its first camping trip at Neurum creek on the weekend. That thing rocks - the 6 burner at home will only get a look in for large gatherings other wise it's the weber all the time.
SWMBO got a Nesspresso machine for the camper when we are on power :angel: :angel:
I've got bike racks for the roof of the camper and some $$ for a couple of mods - pole carriers & volt meter.
But best of all we get about 16 nights away in the camper!!!!!! :cup:
-
Top bit of kit the Weber Q, does the best roast ever!!
-
The misses got a weber q 220 and all sorts of accessory's to go with it, I got solar panels thanks Theo they are great

Since selling my homemade wooden boat (like the idiot that I'am) Morag and I have always wanted either a canoe or Kayaks for fishing the rivers that we frequent.
So after seeing a couple of these in use at the last FNQ camping trip we decided to each get one.
(http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a281/safetyman_1/Kayak.jpg)
It is the Eco Mahi Recreational Kayak
Of course thier being $200 off at BCF didnt hurt none either.
We also bought the seats and paddles to go with them.
Now we will get each other and the boys some stocking stuffers and it will be done for this year.
Oh and hopefully I will still be building a canoe during this wet season as well.
Merry Christmas everyone...

I know where there is one for sale Julian. !!!!!!!! ;D
We don't buy each other any gifts.....which means more money for camping......and beer. !!!

We bought ourselves a Weber Q100, tonight the missus cooked an awesome steak as per the Weber dudes instructions on Pat Callinan's show.

We could swap gifts, just put a bow on the KK and park it under a pine tree from me. I'll bring your present in my fridge every single time I camp with you. I promise that you will never need to leave your chair again. We have talked about yours.

I missed the episode again but heard it was good, how did the steak come out?

how did the steak come out?
It was magnificent, seared to perfection on the outside, an even red all the way through, with just enough juice to mop up with chips :)
Oh and the missus cooked it and she is a vego ;D

No did not go for a paddle.
Seen everyone playing with thiers and just went to BCF to "have a look at them"
When we seen they were $200.00 off we made a snap decision...

Mystq mate it is called a kamado oven but the brand is kamado joe. it is made by very thick ceramic and it's weight was about 80kg. it uses charcoal and you can add wood chips for extra smoke. So far it is amazing, have roasted turkey,s seared steak at 500 to 600 degrees, yet to cook low and slow but they can hold a low constant temp for close to 24hrs if need be. it is a great alternative to a pizza oven that can do so much more.

If you feel completely comfortable owning that vehicle and can't find a jack big enough, I've heard besser bricks are really good to stack under a jack to allow you to lift the vehicle.
Note: Besser bricks will only work under this vehicle, Please don't use besser bricks under any other vehicle. ;D ;D ;D ;D
