A visit from DOM for winter break from uni. SOM (in grad school) isn't visiting because he has a job (yay!). 3.125% interest on my new house. SWMBO hasn't wised up and left me after two decades and change. All in all, a damn good haul! The four of us are Skyping a game of Troll Ball later (gaming stuff). |

A wide screen TV for playing over the net and K9 slippers (Doctor Who Variety) to wear while doing so. Not miniatures related but I do plan on planning some miniatures rules online using Roll20. (officially I have not gotten them yet) |

I practice a one-for-them, one-for-me philosophy of gifting, so I'm never disappointed. So far, a couple of Don Troiani Civil War picture books and copies of The Forgotten Centuries and the Thousand and One Nights. |
| cherrypicker | 24 Dec 2014 4:14 p.m. PST |
Yep I should have said all bar the tanks. was a Christmas gift from me to me (always the first gift I buy) Jules |

not much gaming related seemingly… A few presents from my partner, (including a bottle of beer…) I am still holding out for a laptop in the big box downstairs… (but maybe not!) – And of course I got lots of clothing and smellies on my ten year of being with my partner anniversary (she wont marry me until I stop playing silly games… so I am not married yet..) and that was just a month ago. I will report more in morning. |

| BTCTerrainman | 24 Dec 2014 8:27 p.m. PST |
No toys yet, but I got my daughter! We had a scare this weekend that led to brain surgery to remove a tumor. The results have been very positive, and I could not ask or desire any other gifts this holiday! Merry Christmas to all! |
| leidang | 24 Dec 2014 8:31 p.m. PST |

DBA 3 & HotT 2.1 plus a pile of WW1 books and more naval books. Decided the lead queue was too long to get anything more to paint until I've cleared some of the backlog. Just about to get the goose in the oven. |
| M1Fanboy | 25 Dec 2014 6:47 a.m. PST |
Nothing gaming related thus far that I did not buy myself. On that front, got some 15mm figs and vehicles from GZG and some 20mm from Ehliem. Perhaps I will grab some more post Xmas. |

No toys but I did get a scenario book and some hilariously pointless items of militaria. I've already got an Xmas painting project so I'll be getting on with that (yet more late nineteenth century european wars stuff). |

In addition to an iPad I received a Barzso 54mm 'Guns of the Alamo' set to go with my TSSD/Conte Alamo, four 54mm scale Alamo buildings from Hobby Bunker to expand my CTS Alamo, and five bags of CTS Mexican and Texan 54mm figures. I also got the large 15mm Middle Eastern city wall, gate and tower set with three market sets and some bonus walls for my Khartoum project. |
