Pressies were good. I think my favourite one was one of those wooden build-it-yourself kit things of an angelfish, which was fun. On the other hand, my mum and dad got me a gorgeous picture in glass with exactly the right colours for my lounge, which may have the best long-term niceness potential.
Today I nipped out to Woolworths and bought myself a pressie. They're doing the Garmin Street Pilot i3 for £145 at the moment, which I just couldn't resist any longer. So now I have satnav. I've just come back from doing a quick tour of interesting-sounding places of interest from its local database. Definitely good potential for random days out. It worked really well, too, even if it did display a disconcerting habit of sending you down twisty little one-track roads, just like when you go somewhere and get navigated about by a local who knows the place really well. You can tell it to avoid single-track roads, I think, but it was actually kinda fun.
