I'm not sure to be honest Pete, my Mrs is good as gold with the pressies but hasn't given any clues, although hints have been given from me on numerous occasions. I'll let you know though !

Know what you mean Mate, I was dropping hints about the WERA/WIHA not sure which, advent ca lender, it seems that She has decided that I have enough Tools and the calendar is "persona non gratis" or for the less educated among us me included "don't even think about it" so no tools for me this year then.

As that 'other' thread got closed down, just thought I'd report back, that I made it to 6.30pm on the works do. As the others expressed their intentions to continue on until 5 in the morning, I said my farewells and scurried off home, for my cocoa & slippers.

I hope none of you get your tinsel in a tangle and as you know, an electricians Christmas is always at least six or seven times more pleasant than anyone else’s. We start drinking early and while everyone else is seeing only one Santa Claus, we’ll be seeing six or seven. Hopefully you all have made it on the naughty list and it was worth it.
Merry Christmas everyone! Have a good’un!

I’m not Santa but any of them babes can still sit on my lap.
