Just the usual, clothes, munchies and booze, etc. My best present was to see one of my mates for what will probably be the last time. He’s got terminal cancer and wasn’t expected to see Christmas. He refused to see me at first, because he didn’t want my last memories of him to be a horrible one. While I was talking to his wife she told me that his last will was to be cremated. So I send her into his room with the threat that I would make sure he was buried upright in the ground, and there would be nothing he could do about it, unless he saw me. That did the trick. And to be fair, I didn’t immediately recognise him with all them pipes, wires and equipment coming out of him. Never the less, we spend a few hours together talking about the old times. And we laughed and laughed, mostly at mine expense. In fact at one point we laughed that hard I thought we were both gonna die. But the moral of the story is, time spent with your mates is seldom wasted. Also, spend a lot of time with the grandson under the dinning room table playing with our new head torches. Much to the amusement of Mrs Kamikaze. She never knew such simple minds could be occupied so easily.

I have just noticed something strange ( don't ask me what made me look ) but why is nobody's post count increasing during this thread, or am I losing the plot.

I could be wrong but I don't think Chit Chat posts are counted.

Nice one on the ps4, can't say the same about rat, I am still on ps3 as I heard you can't play ps3 games on ps4 console ?

I was an X-Box 360 man before so it doesn't bother me. I am mainly a PC gamer though which is why I hadn't expected to receive it. I think it's because it's so gadgety and the wife knows she can get rid of me even more now....

I was also xbox 360 but went over to the dark side and must admit never looked back, the obvious attraction with ps3 is the instant blu ray.

@ Kamikaze. That is such a bittersweet story and it's nice that you spent time with your friend. It's moments like that that stay with you and every Christmas you will remember him.

I have friends dotted all around the globe and some aren't well, some are getting on, and some I just miss. I am going to try and get to see them all so I feel I have made some kind of effort.

Happy new year!
