    I think some sort of qualifying question may be required. Get the question right and they get the present. The only problem is that I'd need some questions and answers, and I don't remember anything from Sunday school beyond someone complaining about a child wanting Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle pyjamas and making crispy cakes.

    Well, aren't you lucky? ;)

    As for me, I'm not really wanting much at the moment; I'd like a new computer but I'll end up waiting until next year and the hardware will, of course, be much better. The only thing I can really think of is a new phone, which I'll be getting next May. Looking at the Samsung Omnia (i910 CDMA version for Verizon) unless something better comes out in the next 6 months. I'm sure the rest of the family will get me some odds and ends, but not much. Like some of the others here, I don't really care that much about the gifts anymore, I just get them whenever I want them!

    This year the Mrs is getting me Fallout 3 collectors ed. and a few suprises :D My parents have got me a gig ticket (which was last night, what a blast!). Apart from that it's all little suprises from family and friends (way more fun :D) and a couple of days of fun, friends, family and beers :D

    I have asked for a new screen and some new earphones. Based on last Christmas when ?I asked for some new earphones, a new case and a torch and got the torch, I am not expecting much.

    They say I am difficult to buy for, then don't buy or give me money towards what I want :wallbash: I am not expecting to get an entire screen, but a few people giving me a quarter of a screen would do nicely :)

    I'm getting a Razor deathadder mouse, spooks series 5, heroes 2, a couple more of the Halo books (they are so naff and cheesy but I can't help liking them), a couple of Hamilton's sci-fi books (never gave sci-fi much thought before, but was pleasently supprised by Pandora's Star). A pair of cx300 headphones and smashbros wii. The rest will have to be a supprise, though I don't expect much more as my mum did just buy me a car.

    I got my mum a v4 tom tom One sat nav, looks easy to use (know she will love it), got my nethew some toy set which looks good fun. Still need to do some more shopping.

    Does he know you took it? Or worse, did you hide the body?

    My family keeps pestering me for a list. I'm deliberately being difficult and not sending one out. If they want to get me something, they have to come up with an idea all on their own. :p

    The Missus has got me a BD-ROM/HD-DVD drive for the HTPC for christmas, and the Batman Begins/Dark Knight Blu-Ray double pack.

    I'm trying to convince my dad that he wants to buy me the wood-burning stove that we want for the lounge, but at £900, it's a bit of a stretch.

    Wood stoves are awesome, I lived in a 2 story house we heated with wood for 20 years. Kept the electric bill down and the house nice and toasty. Ever thought of making a brick stove? Might be cheaper and they're cool looking.
