Oh and the dog was so scared it crapped at the front door.
But daughter got great marks in the HSC, and a uni offer, dinner was good, and the then lightning didn't blow anything up this time, and the daughter was out in the rain as we tried to unblock the drains.
Merry Xmas

She got a new microphone and stand.
I got a new vintage type razor thingy, and new earplugs :-)
Our big pressie will be the joocoola ( however it's spelled) hot water system for the camper trailer.

A couple of thoughtful presents from my wife and son. I did buy a new car and new bike this year, which are my birthday and Christmas presents for a while :)
Now to find a quiet spot to read, fat chance of that today :cheers:

We have a couple of copies of the Danny MacAskill book.. a friends puppy had a good chew of it before the wife had chance to read it, and as I was in charge of the dog I got in trouble for it and had to buy a new copy...

Now you're going to have to find new spots to go camping - I'm pretty sure there's 1 or 2 Swaggers up that way who can make some suggestions! :D
Post by: prodigyrf on December 26, 2016, 09:03:48 AM
We've left out the milk and bikkies for Santa and the water bowl for the reindeer which mum and dad will judiciously make look like they've been consumed and with junior sound asleep the bike is proudly leaning up against the fireplace by the tree and the presents carefully in groups. Mum and dad are dripping with anticipation off to bed ready to spring up at the first sign of junior stirring in the morning and sharing in the moment of his first bike. So we're both following excitedly behind him as he enters the lounge and walks straight over to the Xmas tree and presents and sits down alongside the bike and begins opening the presents as mum guides him which ones are for him. No that's all there is for you dear. Finishes opening them all up and promptly grabs some innocuous trinket and waddles off to play with it in his bedroom.
Huh! Complete tunnel vision and never even noticed the bike right beside him and we're left standing there like spare pricks at a wedding ???

When they get a bit older and start with thanks Mum & Dad and forget about Santa, it not so much fun.
Still a giggle some times, but better when they're little.
