    All I want for Christmas is ...

    OK so my kids have asked me to update my Amazon wish list, and so I've added a few DVDs that I wouldn't mind owning, but apart from that, I can't think of anything I really want. Something that will make me smile and say "oooh thanks" on Christmas Day.

    Yes, ideally, your loved ones should think about this and buy something that they feel is in character, appropriate, affordable and shows that they "know" you (it's the thought that counts). But teenage sons lack this imagination!

    I don't play golf, I don't want the latest Jeremy Clarkson book, I don't garden, I don't go fishing, I don't have pets, I don't want a Porsche or Ferrari mouse or keyring, I have plenty of cuff-links.

    What's on your wish list (electronic or otherwise) that costs less than £20 ?

            I went through Firebox.com and found a few things that I thought "that's cool / clever", but weren't things that I would buy myself.

            Now I just need my sister and mother to buy from the list.

                Is that books on the history of cookery or books on the history of cookery books?

                I can't imagine there are many books about the latter although the Mary Berry autobiography is probably close to being one...

                  Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

                  No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.
