I'd already bought a Paul Baker knife (Graduate in medium Oak) as a present from me to me, and then my wife surprised me with a spoon knife and draw knife (frosts).

Best pressie was spending happy time with family and seeing kids enjoying theirs.

Ollie is delighted with his DD travel hammock so thanks to folk on here who recommended it, he spent most of the afternoon snuggled up in there reading his new books then made a brew in his new hobo stove (thanks Russ aka Warthog 1981) then slept out in it last night.

As for me I got a new Hans Karlsson adze. Didn't play with it yesterday but I am off to play with it this morning.

Congrats to you and yours FGYT!

 

[Ozhaggishead]

I got a home brew kit

 

[johnnytheboy]

Bushcraft and Survival Skills Magazine from my mum and dad, that was a real suprise

 

[Mike Ameling]

I must not have been very bad this year. Not even ONE lump of coal! I'll have to work on that this next year.

But I did get a new pair of hand-knit red wool longjohns. But I think I messed up when I washed them. Mayhap I got the water a little too warm?

I could be wrong, but I don't think they are supposed to be this ... snug.

I hope the rest of the winter isn't TOO cold!

Nice one Dunc. Congratulations to you and the missus.

Congrats FGYT, those things are great when they are house trained but they will keep you up at night, and they're smelly, noisy, and will cost you an absolute fortune in the years to come. But boy are they fun and they will draw an odd "proud Dad" tear now and again, usually just before they have you pulling your hair out at them, and of course they will last a lifetime. Give the wife and little one a hug for the best present a man can get, in the words of a certain tv celeb "they're worth it".
Pressies, I got
silk sleeping bag liner, Granpas toasting fork. Spork, 600gb external HDD, and although I got it early a new digital SLR. A very happy bunny indeed!

 

[J14]

That must be a great present FGYT.

P.S I got maya sticks, spoon knife ans a sighned copy of RM outdoor survival handbook
