Who is expecting a cool present from Santa.
unijacko67 - 24/12/13 at 05:38 PM

Lets see who has been good and who has been very naughty.

My elder daughter has been planing a surprise for me and she is very excited to give me it. She comes to the track days with swmbo and me and is car mad, but reckons my present ain't car related.

Lets face it, it must be car related or beer so lets see what Santa brings us all.

I've been promised a 'cool' present this year.

It's going to be shite, I know it, and I have been told I will NOT be sneaking into the shed tomorrow.

Also would love an hour or two one the car - aint gonna happen.

I get to fix the fence that was found across next doors garden this morning. The silver lining was that I needed a new cordless drill to do the job


coozer - 24/12/13 at 07:02 PM

I asked for a helicopter, telescope, Lego, meccano or a train set...

So, lets see....

ive got mine jacko! or ill be getting it in the next week! cant wait to get sprinting in it!
if shes got you a programmable ecu youll be smiling like a cheshire cat! but surely even she's not that clued up on cars? or that rich for that matter!

Well, I've been a really good boy, and I'm expecting a raspberry pi to experiment/play about with. Should keep me occupied hopefully!


Agriv8 - 24/12/13 at 08:54 PM

Son says I should ask Santa for a new clay gun as old one is playing up.

Wife states daddy not been good enough this year !

Not really bothered will settle for two happy & healty boys.

I sent my better half a link to the MK trackday on eBay - subtle enough?......... Fingers crossed!


StevieB - 24/12/13 at 09:38 PM

Nothing exciting for me I'm afraid - wife and I promised not to bother this year as we're doing the house up so we can sell and move to a bigger place.

But the kids have got enough cool stuff to keep me occupied (eldest asked for a lego millenium falcon, which 'Santa' was quite happy to oblige - that'll keep me occupied)

I know I have a new 300nm torque wrench coming, boxer shorts and some chocolate, I would love for good health instead though,

Sod all I suspect, but I bought myself a large stash of whisky recently which I can count as my present to myself!


Wheels244 - 24/12/13 at 10:19 PM

I'm getting an electric drum kit courtesy of my fantastic wife


coozer - 24/12/13 at 10:26 PM

I pointed this out and now after asking for a load of toys and being reminded of the tins of unopened paint lying around I'm getting the silent treatment...


unijacko67 - 25/12/13 at 01:13 AM

I had a gut feeling that my elder daughter had done me a photo album and she has just given me a complete build album from start to finish, she's also kept track day memorabilia and included that in the album. She must have spent hours and hours putting it all in order. Thanks Charlotte.

I didn't get a Prosport Radical or a FlashPro ecu, but like many members have highlighted on here, health, family and friendship are priceless and all that we would wish for. All the best to you all.

Happy Christmas.


daniel mason - 25/12/13 at 10:18 AM

I got a nose hair trimmer, a pocket knife, and some money towards a new welder. Oh and I got the new midlana book but I managed to intercept it before Christmas so not sure if it counts or not.


Daf - 25/12/13 at 02:55 PM

I got permission from the old ball and chain to order an emerald ECU


JoelP - 25/12/13 at 03:33 PM

My best presents were 3 cds from my sister:

Yngwie Malmsteen trial by fire
Amorphis the karelian isthmus
iron maiden fear of the dark

Pretty buzzing with those

And a proper hard back book of my mum's artwork, which is absolutely amazing.

Dont use the nose hair trimmer !!!!
When the hair starts to grow back inside your nostrils, it is stubble, then when you push your nostrils together, the stubble sticks into the delicate bits in your nose.
Ask me how I know.
