A couple of bottles of Champagne, a new carpet sweeper that I needed, a number of cards, and the new car I bought for myself - delivery delayed till the 30th by the fitting of an after-market option. More important, I got to catch up with, over food and wine, numerous friends.

To add to the amusement, the other car I was considering was the Toyota 86 GTS, but the extra 50Kw of output was worth the $4.5K extra.
(And the Renault has a little more cache despite its unfortunated AFL affiliation.) ;)

Mum bought Mrs. Valleys and I a voucher to the Lakes Hotel.
In-laws bought us ticketek vouchers and gave us a bit of cash
Also got the Chris Judd bio from my KK.

Junior valleys got spoilt rotten, seeing him open all of his presents, and the joy on his face outweighed anything I received.

Absolutely loved every minute of lil miss and NG jnr ripping apart their pressies! Got spoilt a bit too...

Nanna Nugget bought NG jnr one of those ride on bulldozers from target and a new bike for lil miss... hours of enjoyment there plus all the rest of the stuff we gave them, gets a bit out of hand actually!

Funniest part was when Mrs Goodness gave me a gift only to discover that i had bought her the exact same thing! (Nutribullet) was hilarious...

Also picked up a watch, some new shirts and aome bulldogs merch. Great day with the family

My daughter is 3 months old and she would have received two dozen presents. It was pretty cool but clearly it effected my receiving of gifts ;)

Can't wait til next year when she can rip them apart herself.

I literally have about 300-400 records including albums, singles, 33s, 45s from both when I Did DJ as well as my collection as a kid and Dads which I inherited. I sold some to MTM records but they pay about $1 each for the good ones that were dance, techno or alternate.

I would be happy to sell you some for between $1 and $5 for the top line albums. A lot of what I think is crap may be right up your alley. Let me know if you're keen. There would be at least 200 I would part with at a very reasonable price.
