So my girlfriend has asked for a christmas list from me. It got me thinking what you guys will be asking Father Christmas for?

Hey Guest, Early bird pricing on the Summer Moot (29th July - 10th August) available until April 6th, we'd love you to come. PLEASE CLICK HERE to early bird price and get more information.
Some tools probably, i've got my shed up and i'd like to start getting stuff together so i can make stuff, like I used to 
A belt sander would be nice but i doubt that will happen....

Heh Heh!
Just bought myself a Belt and Disk sander £150 inc a bunch of spare belts/disks etc.
You can come round and borrow a go on it if you like Tony!
My list is
Books
Whisky
Whatever
As a revolt against the system my wife decided that the majority of prezzies have to be bought in Charity Shops this year (I hope she gets my Whisky elsewhere!) so I have no anticipation of expensive prezzies.
That is why I bought the sander myself.......

I'm after a sander too, there is a belt and disk one in Scewfix for £70. The quility wont be superb but its got a 3 year warranty and wont get used too heavily.
Also after DD bivi hammock, Thermarest mat and 4 season army bag off ebay
Its my birthday on the 1st so I usually do quite well in December

My family have decided they are not going to buy presents this year because of all the terrible commercilism, so I put my thinking cap on and came off with an idea...I am going to carve them all a spoon each! (as joke because it will p*ss them off royally - they don't like my extraodinary spoon collection lol)
It's a wee bit annoying because I had originally asked them to club together for a Small Forest Axe for me!
Other than that we are making each other's prezzies.
So my 'WISH LIST' would be:
Small Forest Axe, DD hammock & tarp, my very own workshop with all the fittings (+ heater, coffee machine and armchair!) and...hmm...some sherbert lemons too.

SWMBO always asks me what I want and, when I ask her, says: "You choose something - you always get such good presents." This year I'm going to get her an angle grinder and some blade blanks - if I'm brave enough...
Whatever i receive i will be grateful for!!
Should make it easier for you all to buy for me now!
Dan
having noted your taste for gucci kit Dan, i think youll be lucky to get a hanky

try machine mart
A shaving horse and tripod carving block would be nice. I have a sneaking suspicion that Santa will be kind though!
Nothing spectacularly bushcrafty for me, as everyone has been prepped to buy the odd bits of kit I need for next year's TGO Challenge walk across Scotland. A pair of Inov-8 shoes will be the main item, along with a couple of pairs of Smartwool socks to replace my threadbare ones. Rather takes the surprise out of the whole affair, but at least I shan't be doing the walk in slippers
There will be a hint of bushcraft, since I'll be taking a wood-burning stove, a tarp and a decent knife. And my trusty Ventile smock, most likely, as it has served me well in Scotland before now. Maybe I should put one of those fancy possum fur hats on the list
