@sundancer ah yes best to get stuck in early with the gifts if you have a little one… Unless she changes her mind with what she wants later on of course 🙂 3d puzzles – have never tired those – unless you are counting lego of course 🙂 I’m going to be stuck for gifts when my nieces and nephews grow out of lego 🙁 Ha, Nerf! top answer. although I’m fairly sure if we had had access to nerf it would have just ended in tears. Or possibly in losing all of the darts… Glad you are methodical in sorting your minis out again after a game 🙂 30 Silver Florins.

@dawfydd sounds a busy weekend hobby-wise. Keep us posted on how you progress 🙂 Up to Christmas Eve? That’s terribly brave, I couldn’t do it. I am usually done by now, and am actually starting to get a little stressed that I haven’t started. I think I might cheat and just go exclusively with mail order gifts this time around to save facing the masses at the malls… Home delivered mexican would be amazing. Have just finished a late breakfast and suddenly I’m hungry again… Mmm proper pie filling. Am now even more hungry… 30 Silver Florins.

@querion welcome back 🙂 some good nautical themed hobby there 🙂 Haven’t heard of those bands before, thanks for sharing.  Particularly like the Exit Eden tracks. yes we stopped doing gifts between adults a few years ago. We worked out we value having less clutter in the house more than the gifts 🙂 Door to door ramen cart – there has to be a gap in the market there. Proper ramen though, not just someone with styrofoam cups of noodles and prepackaged flavouring and boiling water on hand. Excellent point with regard to kids today not necessarily having access to older toys (after all, they are all valuable collectibles now). Yes I remember my old castle lego and compare it to the nexo-knights castle lego nonsense of today and it just doesn’t seem fair to the little ones. 50 Silver Florins for responses and tunes.

@limburger inbound KS’s nice. Ooh Carnevale! very shiny. I have to admit that the aesthetic of that game is very tempting – I could quite happily order a bunch of the TTcombat terrain and build my own little section of venice. 10 kilos of habblocks?… All I’m hearing is thousand point game of Kill Team 🙂 Please keep us posted on what arrives 🙂 Have you considered doing gift registers or something similar between the adults? Yes buying for little ones can be a bit difficult like that. I was considering getting a lot of kids books for gifts this year but I don’t know what all the children already have in their libraries. Heh, I’m just trying to imagine how big our miniature collections would be if we had all started another 10 years earlier 🙂 30 Silver Florins.
