Christmas was good - full of family as usual, and good food and new games and old games - and I really have hardly done anything for the last three days.
I needed that, I think, but I probably need some plans now.
I did ridiculously well out of it, too - highlights are below :)
Books:
A Selection from the Public and Private Correspondence of Vice-Admiral Lord Collingwood (in two volumes) (I'm a geek, but a very happy one)
Storm and Conquest: The Battle for the Indian Ocean, 1809 (from
The Folklore of Discworld
The Interesting Bits: The history you might have missed
The Wonder Book of Would You Believe It (which is really a book about scientific things for children from 1936)
Also £40 of book tokens from my aunt and £20 of amazon vouchers from
Things to build:
A penguin party (paper)
A dragon (paper)
A carousel (plastic, with bits to wire up)
A marble run
A jigsaw (wild animals, including a sloth)
Other things:
A Waverley calendar
Rocket balloons
Pyjama trousers
Far too much chocolate
and more :)
