Posting cash amounts is a bit strange...

If only bench could make a t-shirt that didn't have it's logo in your face. I can't stand brands that do that. Go in bench and try to find a t-shirt that doesn't say NaAaaahhhhh! I'm from bench!!

Impossible.

Impossible.

My nephew got a Bench tee and the only branding was a small B on the front.
 
Well I got a dressing gown off the daughter, pants of the inlaws, wife got me beer!! Always goes down well. Some lynx sets off sister in law, Voucher for tesco off brother in law, parents are giving me money towards a roof rack, and £30 quid from various other family members.

Strange that the most exciting thing is the roof rack, had one on old car, and haven't on new one and trying to move ladders without it is interesting to say the least!!

I got the wife a 7" android tablet, which she loves and had no idea about, so extra bonus points for me for the next week!!
 
Got a wallet which now contains around £9 in change after a night out the other night.
A bottle of Monkey Shoulder Whiskey
£50 OcUK voucher.

Didn't get anything from my grandparents this year which I was surprised at as everyone else seemed to lol.
Nor did I get anything off my dad, which I'm not surprised at :p.
 
Totally surprised to unwrap a Kindle Fire from my sister tonight!

Surprised because she's only just started working having come back from the USA, and I'm incredibly hard to buy presents for!

Now I feel guilty because I haven't got her anything. I'm going to have to take her shopping tomorrow!
