Received Mr K's cash, thank you Mr K!
Ok we're speeding towards December, which means it's pressy discussion time. I'm a fan of the lots of small things idea, is anyone violently opposed to this?

Lots of small things and a satsuma to top it off.

8.99 Vicous Delicous
9.99 Nyana
28.35 Quantam mechanics (had to have one serous one in there)

In lieu of the plasma globe, we could always toss in a few ass candles for the remaining £2.43...
Other than the missing PG, I've no trouble with that list.

Engines - Removed
Generators and Pumps - Generally unserviceable or not working
And I just thought I could buy myself a nice cruise boat.

Nah, what you want to do is to convert her to sail, say a 4 or 5 masted barque.

Well that's really helpful...... a lot of this stuff can't be sent as a gift...... You know for a smart dude there are times......
Anyway I've made up a revised list of things that CAN be sent, I've also gone for pressies from sources with good reputations and feed back. I'm putting the order in now and will be adding an extra cd in after Crimbo to make up the short fall. (I have an extra £20 going into my pay pal account but you know how quickly these things clear.....
