    regen - that camera looks awesome!

    I got (aside from t-shirts, smellies etc)

    - Logitech mx-510
    - Brandy :D
    - Lots of gift vouchers for a new aquarium - i asked for these, I'm so easy to buy for :p I've got my eye on a 180L one which is about £400.
    - 2 x Global kitchen knives. If you don't know what these are, they are generally regarded as the best commercially available knives. Samurai's use these to make samurai meals (whilst fending off pesky ninjas). They are razor sharp, perfectly weighted and completely awesome! one like this and a smaller one. Really pleased with these :D
    - And my pressie to myself - a logitech MOMO :)
