All I got was a WWE Calendar 2007, a couple of Tracksuit bottoms and a couple of shirts for Christmas.
All I got was three shirts.
Consider yourself lucky.
But, in all seriousness, I asked for clothes so I shouldn't complain.

The Wii's really nice... but I'm feeling very poor now, I must say!
WIS: Yay, another Dark Materials fan! I can't wait to start reading it. I've got two other books on the go that I should really finish first, though

Zega, you got a hell of a lot of presents.
Mazil, I'm also a His Dark Materials fan, though it's been a few years since I've read it. I have The Amber Spyglass, but not the other two.
As for my own presents - I got a couple of books (John Marsden, Tomorrow Series), some jewellery, some clothes, money/vouchers from the extended family, and suitcases and various stuff for when I move out in 17 days for university in another state.
