Merry Christmas Froggy.
Long day but it's over now.
4 weeks of holidays. The first is over, and I had very little time to myself and/or CP2077 time. And I'm exhausted/broken.
But pretty much a clear road ahead now for the next 3.

Day after. Hope all had a good one. We hosted so a busy day of kids and mess. Gotta front up for a new family member’s birthday today (turning 3). Nice kid but I wish she wasn’t born on Boxing Day.

Merry Christmas Ranchers! :up:

I do believe this has been the first time in my life I've been sick at Christmas. Boo-urns! I am glad I was over the sore throat phase of the cold before Christmas Day, and just had to power my way through 1000 tissues instead :|

Was a good day though. My boy fell asleep about 1.5 hours before his bedtime because he didn't have a nap and there was so many other kids running amok during the day keeping him going :lol:

A good haul :)

A great year to be sick, did the family treat you like a Covid lepa? :lol:

Nice work, I got a tamiya rc car kit but no games this year. New xbox kind of killed those presents as I went and bought that plus any games I wanted then and now I've got a backlog. Kids got some cool stuff I can play with though so there's always that, lots of lego.

Merry Xmas.

Hosted this year for the first time. Family members turned up at 630 so they could see our kids open the presents plus one of them had work at 1pm.

Scored a wallet, genuine HSV exhaust tips for my car (brand new, yet been an obsolete item since 2006), a registration pouch for my car, pre paid credit card and a couple of articles of clothing.

Gave the kids an Xbox One S Digital 1TB and bought some games a few weeks ago so it was all ready to go today (Lego City Undercover, Minecraft, Sonic Hedgehog 2) plus installed a couple of my purchases like Daytona USA, Hydro Thunder, Gyruss,

Wtf is a registration pouch? I love finding new old stuff when I get onto something old like converting a Lego train to 9v and finding brand new engines etc. Finding those tips proves at least someone in the family actually loves you!

Reminds me I need to get Daytona installed for my boy. It's not in the Xbox store but online? How'd you get it on the Xbox?

And a happy new year. For the first time in my adult life I'm officially low key. Will take the kids out for a special meal tonight and that's it. My partner not feeling well so I can't even hit her up. It's all good though. A fitting end to an unprecedented year.

Didn't even bother to do anything. Nothing on anyway and too much effort with the rules anyway to enjoy yourself. Happy New Year all unfortunately 2021 looks like it will be a shitshow too for most of it

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all Ranchers. :)

Should have been a quiet one but I ended up at a friends place who had originally organised a huge bush doof (cancelled of course), so five of us made the most of the sound system, smoke/laser machines and whatnot. Had projectors with a whole bunch of friends on Twitch taking turns DJing, was a cool kind of pirate radio vibe. Definitely an unexpected turn of events but the best NYE's are always the ones you don't plan.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all. I hope that 2021 is a FAR better year than 202 (how could it not be???).

Anyway, obviously best thing about the Christmas festivities is seeing my kids opening their presents, but especially beautiful was seeing my 2 year finally "get" what Christmas is about for the kids, and really enjoy opening her presents!

As for myself, well I got given a Chucky doll that will remain in it's box as to not torment the kids!!! I also received a replica Freddy Krueger glove which will also remain boxed! The one I'm having the most fun with is my new Oculus Quest 2! This thing is brilliant! I also got the PC attachment cable for it. Now all I need is to upgrade my damn PC!!!

I posted a pic below, it sticks to your window for our registration paper as we have to display one all year round.

In the dash you go to My Games then Show all or something and it will show all games you've paid for. It even shows all the supported XBLA titles I purchased when I lived in London back in 2009, hence downloading Daytona.
