That's right: sometime over the next 24 hours, you will be receiving some gifts. Post what you receive, here, whether to boast, complain, or just because you're obsessed with this board.

A new cordless keyboard and mouse. A football (soccer). And a pimp-looking cover for my cellphone.

Now this keyboard of mine is one of those "formed for comfort" ones, and i'm having a damn heard time typing this! The buttons are divided in two sections (the letter ones)... I can't bloody type with these!

*cough*Mercenaries!*cough*

I got a pair of Ralph Lauren jeans, two new shirts (Kickers and Ben Sherman), £60 cash, a series of books on WW1 and 2, two videos on WW2 (out of a series of 3) and various other odds and ends, (Filofax, Gillette shaving gift set etc).

I feel like a walking ad board.

From my wife:

Four sets of Bob & Ray CDs, from their vintage humor on radio back in the 1950s and 60s. Great stuff.

A nifty stainless steel wine stopper with some interesting blue handblown glass thingee on the top.

The William Blake Tarot.

$250 to purchase CDs at the Berkshire Record Outlet.

The DVD reissue with Children of Paradise. I've posted about this film before, here: it's among my favorite films. This reissue not only includes lots of commentary, but also uses the cleaned-up version Pathe made in 1991, plus additional computerized restoration work. They have a short feature on the DVD comparing the pre-restored and restored versions. Can't blame 'em for boasting.
