What did you get?


I'll kick it off

Leatherman Charge TTi (always wanted a decent knife)

and a proper esky (EvaKool 60L)

got my bitches a necklace/pendant thing from Tiffanys, the jeweler - not to be confused with tiffanys - the den of iniquity*


* haha currently down due to a bandwidth limit problem

I also gorged myself on Christmas ham and trifle, so much so that I had to nap for a few hours earlier
All in all an excellent day

the gf and I just got back from the boxing day sales

I hated it, I was all of a sudden one of those people that lines up at 5am
anyway, was kinda worth it

scored 40% off a full set of polo Ralph Lauren bed sheets/doonah etc
got some s*** for the kitchen (knives/chopping board yada yada)

the gf got herself a new iron, which apparently is the equivalent of a male getting a new video card or something

WTF? 7:14am, and you're in Qld so it's only 6:14am, and you're already back from them!?
I was going to go down to look for some things today once I get back from a training ride, but it's starting to sound like by the time I get down there (around 11-11:30) everything will be gone.

nah I'm in Sydney

edit: also, f*** going later during the day, there was enough pushy bargain-hunting people + angry old men/women galore, at 5am.

one sales assistant was heard to say 'I dunno I don't work here' - while she was processing my items, mustn't have had her coffee

I went shopping for a 'christmas present' from me to me today, swimming through the crowds of boxing day shoppers, but in the end came home having decided I'll order it online ($100 cheaper).

I did however come home with what I'm convinced are the coolest riding glove design ever:

(I already have three sets of these same gloves in plain/all black).

Haven't really gotten much yet at all, I haven't seen my family yet. They live in Cairns, so I'm flying up to see them in a few days.

The gf got me an extra keg and CO2 bottle for my homebrew.
