A little silver helicopter which you can clip, on a bouncy bit of wire, in your car and fill with air freshener. So... looks like a helicopter and helps to mask the pong of wet dog - top prezzie!

I asked for Shawn's book, but apparently it can't be had for love nor money in the UK. I got a Garden Vac instead. I'm wondering if I've been had.......

I believe that it is (or was) only available direct from the publishers - I ordered my copy this way and it arrived in the UK within a few days:

Thumbs up It ain't a lump of coal

I got a beautiful scale model of the Canadair Global Express. It is solid mahogany with all of the windows and panel lines shown in contrasting materials. A welcome addition to my extensive collection. Also got a scale model of the Los Angeles Fire Department Bell 412 and I’m awaiting delivery of a model of the R-44

Thumbs up

The kids got all the goodies this year, which makes it even better to be a parent... you get to play with all their toys! When I was a tike, G.I. Joe with the Kung Foo grip was HOT. Now, the little ankle biters get walking talking dinosaurs that look pretty real (and scares the heck out of the family cat). I think I've been hogging the electric helicopter (flying model) a bit too much. Ahhh... to be a kid again!

My present? More flight time... what else could be better?
