I dropped a few hints to the future MrsJimothy so I have an idea.

She knows what she's getting as I've got her what she asked for...

Toppers knows one of his, as he asked for it after I'd bought it......

Now is that great minds thinking alike, or small minds seldom differing???

Nope, the pie is still sitting in the fridge! I think tonight may have to be pie night. All I need is some salad, pickle, cheese, bread, onions and an apple for a nice pork pie ploughmans!

I had a small list this year:

Civilization IV computer game
Epson P-4000 (multimedia gadget)
Manfrotto-Bogen 501 Camera tripod
Canon EF-S 60mm f 2.8 Macro lens USM
Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM Ultrawide Zoom
Panasonic Shaver Vortex #ES8077S
BVLGARI AQVA Cologne 3.4oz
A history of Britain DVD Collection - Simon Schama

Basically, all stuff that I would have bought for myself by now, but the Mrs puts a moratorium on purchases around 31 October every year to make sure that she has something to get me for Christmas.

I did catch a peak at a box labelled Manfrotto-Bogen. Purely by accident m'lud (she shouldn't hide my presents in the same place that we hide the kids' presents)

Pretty much know what I'm getting but there's always a few surprises including the one from a PH'er that arrived this morning that is a fab bit of kit.

I asked (in my letter to Santa) for an electric guitar, dartboard and a rolex daytona.

I've been a very good boy this year, so you never know!

Mrs Smoke is getting this...........
