I have bought myself a 2 TB USB "On The Go" flash disk [actually it's called an SSD] and I have deemed it to be a Christmas gift to myself.

It was a difficult decision 🤔 should I chance a BOGOF on Christmas Eve or be certain by paying the full whack for them? Somehow a tangerine doesn’t quite fill the toe of a stocking in the same weighty way as a Terry’s Chocolate Orange.

Understood, although I don't have a sweet tooth my wife loves chocolate,she worked for Thornton's for a while but put so much weight on she got fired.

You are too generous Drew.
When people tell me what they want I tell them I will get it for them in the January sales. Then hope they forget about it.

I will take my family out for brunch to celebrate three birthdays in December - my daughter's 5th Dec, my great-granddaughter 9th and my own 10th. That's my Christmas gift to the family, 8 people.
