Happy Christmas 2011



Christmas Day 2011 starts in a relaxed manner


Some are more manic than others


A cute girl in a devil suit offering
Dungeons and Dragons.

That never happened in the 80s


Next is a present-opening saga. A bit
like pass-the-parcel, except I didn't
pass it to anyone else.


The unwrapping begins


I get stuck in


Time for a pause


It's an IOU note for a Periodic Table
shower curtain as seen in the
wonderful Big Bang Theory
tv show

Epic!


Blast from the past!
This Texas Instruments calculator is
from 1974! And it still works
(after a little TLC from Tom)

Probably a collector's item now :)


The two family presents were the D&D game
and an Ice-cream maker mmm


Another present (for me) was the
latest Legend of Zelda game


I ordered this one for myself, after getting such
a fabulous service from Amazon on the
D&D game and Tom's new calculator.


Next working day, the shower
curtain duly arrived!
