3) What DVD or CD that you haven't already pirated...errrm..bought (at £10 or under) would give you shivers of delight?
4) What gadget or silly-bily item (at under a tenner) would give you chuckle-cramps in your cheeks (facial, not lumbar...)

Might help?


So you're struggling then? ;)

I always struggle with stuff like this - even wen I know the person quite well!

To the poor person who gets their pressie from me, I will just say...."I'm so sorry about the phlegm - I always get such bad head colds, this time of year" :shock: :?

I've ordered the present for my person now. They are getting one magic gift, and one of the best dvds known to mankind, not including "How to lose a guy in 10 days" 8-)

I *think* I know what I'm getting for my 'mark', too; just have to hope customs allow it into the country :twisted:

Keep it clean. :D

Well, let's keep things subtle then. If anyone can tell me what this means before the first of December then they get a really good prize worth more than the Secret Santa budget:

PS. John Thompson is excluded from this competition, simply because he's a clever bu**er who knows how I think :)

It's not, but you're thinking in roughly the right area. No more clues :)

Just a quick note to those who are not part of the Secret Santa - you can join in too.
I mention this only because I'm receiving PMs about it!
Cheers,
T.

Is it double-hashed?

Double-hashed? No. But if it was, I'd want to know what file it was.

Alec suggested grid coords via a PM. All I'll say to that is I'd need more info for a correct answer. For example, if these were hardcore grid coords I'd want to know the location.

I'm not saying that it is or is not a set of coords, by the way, just noting how much detail is required for a win :)

Finally, please post yours answers here - not via PM - 'cos my inbox gets full pretty fast.

Finally finally, OK, Tomo can join in :)
