Two rear flat tyres on my MV6 complete with Merry Xmas fingered on the iced up rear screen (prob some p*ssed up b*rsted on Xmas eve), took bl**dly ages to pump them up (frozen 17" rubber with the alloys almost touching the road).

Not at all car-related, but my fave pres this year was a toilet roll holder with a built in radio  :)

Yes I know it sounds awful (and yes, it looks very tacky, but it's MY toilet) .It's really handy for not missing a bit of traffic news in the morning, or a comedy show on radio 4 in the evening, or whatever.  Yes I know I could have had a portable radio on the window-cill, but a) I couldn't reach it from the 'sitting' position, and b) being portable is the problem - it's portable, and ends up in the garage, shed etc.

So you all know what to ask for for your birthday!

Received prior notification that my parents couldn't think of anything to buy me this year and would be giving me a cheque :y - so I relieved them of that predicament:

Sounds like Zirk could have done with it.... :(

I had some money given to me at Christmas, don't know what to spend it on.

Thought about a cruise control stalk, but will probably hardly ever use it.

I got a huge heap of tools, inc another 150pc halfords socket set (most of last set is rattling around various members engine bays!), lots of sockets on rails (halfords and clarke), 3 of those lovely clarke rachets, extension bars, those tools for removing rounded nuts, new little blowtorch thingie.  Lots and lots of stuff :)

Didn't get a helicoil kit to do the sump on the tractor, so I can see a visit to a certain Nottingham resident so I can watch him demonstrate how to use them ::)

Yep. Sadly, can't justify a costly one until I find something to actually use it for other than blowing up tyres and scaring the cat!   ;D
