Best was a pair of enduro boots, Forma Terrain Evo.
Worst was chocolates, I'm too fat anyway.

A Haynes model V Twin engine... Now I have an inline 4 and the twin.
She said it kept me quiet for 2 hours Christmas day while she was cooking, thus keeping the pigs in blankets safe.
Loads of smellies (think they are trying to tell me something)
A Helinox chair for camping.
A new pair of MX boots as my touring and MX boots fell apart, so I opted to go back to MX for road and offroad. - I'll go through a pair of boots in 6 months regardless of make or price.

Then the Mrs found yesterday she hasn't given me the Terry's chocolate orange.

I got G.u.y Martin's latest book for xmas & have nearly finished it now. Quite liked the bloke before, thought he was down to earth and a normal bloke. Liked most of his TV series too.
Now I just think he's a tw@.
I should have read the reviews on amazon, as quite a few others have the same view.
If you like G.u.y Martin then I'd suggest that you don't read his books..... :shrug:

Not for Christmas, but I had a rather notable birthday on the 30th of December and I'm going to Mugello next year to watch the Moto GP ! The Mrs has got the flights & accommodation sorted (Florence) & one of my mates has got the tickets, which is nice  :thumb:


And if you were wondering I was 50...  :old:

Santa didn't bring anything so I went shopping on my own  :xmasgrin:
HEED bars and central stand - ordered directly from Poland about £160 total
And what I really can't wait for is set of fairing panels in black to replace my blue ones. Got them dirt cheap!  :dl_hyperhysteria: :dl_hyperhysteria: :dl_hyperhysteria:

Best present ever came from my Mum (93 in two weeks) and look how the decorations have huddled up into the last piece of real estate. Analogy for humanity and global warming eh?

I got a mug with a Spitfire on it. And then going home utterly, totally, completely flippin' soaked. Helmet, jacket, gloves, jeans, pullover, t shirt, boots & socks. Which would be a problem if I wasn't going from Dunoon in Scotland to Ipswich, Suffolk. Wound up in a hotel off the M6 to warm up & dry out.
So I need a new jacket, gloves & maybe boots. Before next Xmas

Wouldn't a helmet with horns on and the urge to ride through Tescos thumping the customers be a simpler test?

Moto Skiveez, a boot liner for the V70 and a new cordless drill. I did consider making my own skiveez using a couple of Tena Ladies and some tight pants. :)
