    I'm a parent, so I got nothing but a fairly hefty credit card bill

    New machine heads for classical guitar (look superb!), DRLs for the car, some good 100% agave gold tequila.

    Xmas prezzie from me to me is an Ikea Fredrik desk which I've modified to standing desk position, plus a tall bar stool to use with it when I want to sit down. Saves faffing with the whole two height position thing - everything is tall.

    Got some Next vouchers too so might fight my way through the hordes tomorrow.

    Got the Oneplus One from my grandparents (albeit a little bit before Christmas, but it was their present to me), xbox one and a couple of really nice jumpers.

    Bought myself an NZXT H440 which I'll be installing withing the next few months when I have the money to go for an R9 290 and a new motherboard + CPU.

    A hangover. >.<

    Also an insane amount of chocolate, which I intend to eat way too quickly. Bought myself a GTX970 G1 too

    I got a new monitor, the Lego ghostbusters car and socks and boxers. I also got fat with all the food I ate.
