In amongst the usual odds and ends like sweets and boxer shorts I got some Masters of the Universe construction kit which I’m looking forward to getting home and putting together.

Did well on the PS4 front-had Resident Evil 2 from one brother (Jazzem) and God of War from the other.

My wife then told me to order a PS4 game as a gift and I was initially going to get Fallen Order but decided to get a few games knocking about for £10-15 for the same price: Lost Legacy, Until Dawn, Arkham Knight and Yookee-Laylee and the Impossible Lair.

Especially looking forward to returning to the world of Uncharted and Batman and hopefully scratching my DKC itch with YK.

Wife also got me a travel plug which sounds a little dull...but to be fair, it’s superbly designed-multi country and lots of USB ports.

Had some nice clothes, PJs, socks and toiletries amongst other things from my Mum. As usual she went overboard.

From other bits and pieces:
Had some Heineken with a personalised pint glass with a Welsh flag and an in joke on from a mate. Also, had a bottle of flavoured rum from a Secret Santa with friends which is delicious.

Had Famous Grouse and a whiskey glass in the work Secret Santa.

Had a (very nice) bottle of wine from manager.

Worrying how everyone thought alcohol was best gift for me :lol:

My family have stopped doing presents, for a couple of years now. Though my wife did by me a number of new threads, which I was really happy with.

Donations welcome, please PM me to prevent unwarranted mule kicking.

The Mario Kart clobber is up on Uniqlo, but it's showing as kids only :/ I'm sure that in the preview they had designs for both men's and kids' sizes.

Maf actually said it was kids only a while ago, but I thought they'd updated it for the European release. O well.

I laughed at the cheepcheep.

3 of the Uniqlo DBZ tees are down to £7.90. All sizes still available. (Tees on offer are stripey female Android, Goku+1 other character stripes mix and Frieza target.) I like the Goku and Android ones, but... not getting 'em this time around. I may go for the faces hoodie at some point, though.

DBZ isn't really my sort of thing, so i'll likely pass this time.

Not my photo but i've been eyeing up this watch for a while and finally decided to treat myself to it taking my collection up to a frankly ridiculous 6 watches once it turns up.
