Didn't get any Tom. 
Actually that's not true. Someone brought me a couple of small 'consumable' items on Christmas day .....despite being advised not to do so!

We had a particularly nasty outbreak of relatives on Christmas day. Took me till Boxing day lunchtime to flush them out. Have just about recovered from it...and another lot are coming this weekend! 
Surely there are some shots you can have to protect against this?

My wife and I gave up the Christmas present treadmill a long time ago. Christmas is for kids..and as we don't have any, there is not point!

We do celebrate birthdays and wedding anniversaries though, and as both our birthdays are shortly after Christmas, it sort of compensates.
I've ordered a camcorder for the wife. She has struggled for quality with the Flip in awkward lighting and the Nikon video option is a joke for handholding casual videoing.But I think she will need a new computer to cope with editing, as hers is a little old.May even get her an iMac if it's any good! ;-)
