[Closed] So .. whats top of your xmas list

Top of my list is dinner with my mum brother brother_out_law wife and son... Toys are toys family is special.

I'm trying hard to disappoint myself by not buying a set of pikes. Does that count?

I got myself some lovely tube blocks:

I bought myself a rather expensive jacket and shoes. hopefully they will last me a lot of years.

I tried that and failed. Secondhand pikes, but happy xmas to me 8)

Trying to work out if I can buy a Tamiya RC car - my brother has come to visit and is prepared to pretend it's his present to me... not sure if the fun police will fall for it 🙂

bencooper,
what are they for ?

Nipple clamps.

🙂

They're for holding bike tubing while cutting or filing it.

I'm waiting for the sales and hoping to get a deal on a Mio GPS unit.

A new line manager 🙁

From the missus and kids some fatbar lites and grips and an uplift day at BPW when alpine build is done.

Nexus 5 and chrome book for myself (already using them though)

wifes buying me a bouyancy aid. The kayak I have to supply myself

I really couldn't give a shit about presents as long as I get a rest,time with the family and a short break from dealing with work related f***wits and bullshit.

World peace.

^^ This too.

Very nice Timberland boots,
A pair of 501's
A Montane down filled coat
Macallan 18 year old whiskey
Courvoisoir XO cognac
Service kit for my Roxkshox Revelations

If my boss would use his brains and b•••s, I'd get a promotion. But I know he doesn't want me replaced by a numpty. Just like me of a few years ago.

I bought myself a second hand courier bag from here. (Thanks Neil). I've given it to my wife so she can give it me as a christmas present.

After christmas I'll be buying myself a PS4 at some point.

Have recently bought the family a VW California so am hoping to get some bits and pieces for that off the extended family. Looking forward to using it sometime soon.

Northwave shoes
Bowmore 10yo
And maybe a Santa Cruz Heckler....

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh what I'd do for a rest, time with the family and a break from work! 😀

Christmas in the north sea with a bunch of foreigners 😐

Don't want any presents this year. Happy to have a couple of weeks at home with my lovely family, plenty of nice food, a few days out and an opportunity to get back into running every day.

My pressie to me was this frame bag from wildcat

Being in the process of moving house, the last thing I need is more toys...but I'm enjoying a stay with family (older generation) for the first time in years. Happy Christmas everyone!

I bought my self a lovely pair of half cabs. Pretty skint at the moment but desperately need a new rod (skateboard) so it will be that if i get a few quid in cards etc...

Apple TV it's been under the stairs for about a month now waiting for Santa.

I spend the cash on the kids, just hoping to be off as each day goes by the chances increase. If I can get through to tomorrow then I'll stand a good chance of being off.

Then in the New Year I'll be getting a PS4 thanks to overtime shift on New Years Day.

Havana Club Rum
Southern Comfort
The age of Ultron graphic novel

and....

I've just put my order in for a Planet X road bike. Which is definitely a present to myself.

A day off that involves not visiting anyone and 4 quiet hours to put my cx bike together.. that's all I want.

Nothing. I buy what I want / need whenever I want / need it 🙂

I don't like gifts or people spending money on me.

Hopefully a BMW 1M

Still saving up for this. Maybe next Xmas...

Bought myself an Orange Five - Wanted one for years and took the plunge at the beginning of the month. Took it up to Whinlatter for a pre-Christmas ride last week. Love it. Now looking at a Diva for the missus as according to her 'it's only fair'... There go my plans for a van.

Test riding this...

I've got to hand it back in January 8)

I'm hoping for a SC 5010 (Solo). In reality two weeks off with (very knackered) better half and the boys will be far better.

Sadly its just the packaging and not the contents but it will make jumping in the sea wetsuitless for the traditional swim a bit more enticing.

I might have ordered myself a Garmin 810 using the 30% off code at the weekend as a sort of christmas pressie..... but the wife is currently not working and we are meant to be tightening belts so now feeling a bit guilty 😳

Some decent weather- I'm off for 2 weeks, I want to spend it all either eating, drinking, hungover or riding bikes but that might be a bit much to ask...

World peace.

In the festive spirit, "We're the CIA, we don't do world peace"

Maybe a new buff.. Some new gloves would be useful, I've got my eye on about 80 albums at the moment so a couple of those would cheer up any time spent in the car.. Perhaps even a piece of art..
Sexy contact time is top of the list though

Just ordered a Cannondale Scalpel Carbon 29er 1 at a price which was too good to turn down, however, I think that means all the presents to myself for 2014 have been used up!

Can't wait for it to arrive, along with a dry frosty morning to test it out.

A new pair of jeans.

I bought myself this from a fellow STW'er. Happy Xmas to me.

I am going to treat myself to entry for next years Bewl Triathlon, I did fancy the Royal Parks Ultra, but at £200 I dont think santa will stretch to it

the lovely mrs_drummer has bought me one of these:

I'd like to replace my Sabian crashes, Zildjian hi hats & ride with more of the same, but as that would cost over a grand i'll settle for...

the all-clear for my B-I-L following a wrestle with pancreatic cancer

Currently sat on a train that was over 3 hours late so just getting home would do for me at the moment 😆

I'm treating myself to a GoPro, I can't wait to start playing around with it! Fingers crossed it arrives today.

Someone to give me a hug and tell me that they love me.

Best hop over to the depression thread I think.

but where's the conditioned gift? I work in a very big supermarket, and the disgusting amount of unnessecary sppending is so evident. one bloke said to me "we'll even waste £60 of this, why even buy it, it'll go in the bin" but the guy was very aware of it. I dunno. got many stories.
