From my gf/her family: Jumper Hoody Stig Bubble bath Shaving gel, after shave balm and after shave Choccies
From my family: 2 Ed Byrne DVDs 1 American Haynes Manual for a British car (which does not feature the correct engine) Some cheques and chocs
Pretty much fail from my family, at least my parents still owe me stuff and a lot of money right now so will get them get stuff I need for my car (and get my dad to fix my lighter socket that he broke... so I can install my iPod kit properly.... wired into the engine and everything!)
pretty f**ked off in fact as I seem to have spent the most out of everyone (including my parents) yet I'm the only one that is unemployed, and I just had to buy a car out of my own pocket
They're all getting a card and that is it next year, if they're lucky

Best present : A table football game (requires some assembly, but still ace) worst present : Some Ted Baker branded deodorant. Someone paid extra money for something that's very cheap in a slightly differently painted metal tube. Thanks for the thought though, really.
