Not really meant to be a thread about bragging, but basically you can share some of the gifts here that you really like or even ones that make you shake your head as you politely smile and remember that it's the thought that counts.
I had a decent christmas, the highlight for me being getting Guitar Hero Live and hilariously failing on Expert with the new control set-up.
-
- Lenovo laptop (heck yeah!}
- Tickets to see Stoke v Liverpool in January
- Night light
- £30 GAME gift card

There were other things, but those things are just as nice to get as the rest.
