Good presents

I just opened up a new bike work stand. And it’s a beaut!

What did you get that you really like?

Off to the olds in a bit, wife spoilt me rotten. Bose quiet comfort 15 headphones and a display case for my watches! Apparently I have a mint sauce jersey from the inlaws.

Top pressie is definitely 2 tickets for Johnny Marr at the Ritz in March, from mrs Binners. Can’t wait 🙂

She also got me a framed, vintage print saying ‘bicycles may be stored here at the owners risk, please remove any valuables from your saddlebag’. To be put up where my bikes inevitably find their way indoors 😆

An axe. Golly, it’s sharp! 😀

Already cut myself! 🙄

Slippers….

One of these;

Wanted a more “everyday” watch, but something that could still work under a suit when off on my travels. Very pleased indeed! Will be changing the strap for a TimeFactors NATO one shortly.

I actually quite like that one Flashy, classy rather than egregiously bling.

I recently discovered the author Haruki Murakami, so was very happy to have his collection under the tree this morning.

IPod dock off me mum. She won it in a competition, but i am chuffed with it!

a stove top coffee pot, which if you don’t follow the instructions very well makes very very strong coffee 😯

Over here there’s a black gortex Arcteryx jacket and matching fleece mid layer.. Bring on the rain ! Oh, and a mountain or three please!

Wifey got me an iPod dock and a senseo coffee thing.

I’ve got a headcam thing. Is this for use during cycling or whilst in flagrante? 🙂

Happy Christmas guys! Pretty good cycling gifts here.

Wide riser bars
Head cam and accessories
Training session with Ed Oxley at Gisburn
Overshoes for the road bike
One of those stolen bike tracking things that goes in your seat tube

Pretty well spoilt really.

Mrs ssstu’s delight on recieving her presents was enough of a great gift for me.

Have you been told off for wearing them inside and destroying the carpets yet? 🙂

Good one here, got tickets for Sarah Millican next September, an insect hotel, a new kitchen & a Bose sound dock off the mrs. 101 Whisky’s to try before you die (+ some samples) off the bro in law, a 12yr old Glenlivet off another bro in law, a spurious Islay malt off the other bro in law, a 12 yr old Bowmore off my eldest, a bottle of Bombay Sapphire off the stepdaughter & Guy Martins ‘How Britain Worked’ book off stepson.

Happy me!

Ignore, wrong thread!

Just activated my Singletrack subscription, (Ta Ed, no adverts, WOO HOO!) + stuff to tube-less my wheels and a nice hoody.

Only disappointment so far is no-one will play Hide and Seek with me, but off round to a house with incumbent 3 and 7 year olds shortly, so that should be fixed also!

Flash…what is that Seiko and link to the strap please.

Apparently I have a mint sauce jersey from the inlaws.

My mum’s a good knitter, could I borrow this for a bit?

Ta! That’s what I was after, really. Smart, every day and not too shouty. I have a lovely vintage watch for posh, and then a G-shock for getting dirty. Wanted something in between that wasn’t as smart as the Omega. 🙂

Oh, and waiting as a surprise in the fridge for me this evening;

Christmas in a glass!

Clutch – Blast Tyrant cd with bonus cd/tracks 🙂
