Ok I’ll ask.
@jc what was the car?
A GT-R. The Anti-Leaf.
Hope you chipped in for his insurance as well!

We’re in our late 50s. Insurance companies assume we drive like nuns.
Edit: I’ve probably mentioned elsewhere that I’ve got one as well. I bought them together and got absolutely no discount at all - don’t ask me how I managed that. Anyway he got to choose which one he wanted and got the white one with red interior, mine is black on black. The actual Christmas present was the one the dealer’s girlfriend got I suspect.

I said it before and I'll say it again. No matter how much you are worth that is a class move

Yeah well this year I may have got it wrong. I bought him a kamado. It’s here at my house and I’ve got no idea how I’m going to get it to his. In my head I’d just load it into the car and drive it round there. The reality is I can’t lift the bastard off the ground and the box is too big for the tailgate anyway. I’m close to the humiliation of asking him to come and pick up - in both senses - his own present.

Those are frikking heavy mate. Would have been better to have it shipped to his house and hidden for the big day!!

My sister's need to up their fucking game

@mariner4life I have some of these which I use at the gym on ambient mode, as I get nauseated without the outside sound. They work a treat. Would probably actually work with just one in too.

i found some really good ones, that guys training for triathlons seem happy to wear on the bike (which still seems madness to me). So they'll do.
Kids have got a playstation. so i guess i got a playstation.
One day of work to get through, then christmas celebrations begin with Wigilia at the in-laws.

I only had 5 beers at lunch time today...need to eat lots of the food in the staffroom before I go home now.
Have a safe and happy holiday season all you good cnuts, even those of you who arent good cnuts, stay safe!

I'm "working from home".
Snap me too. Yesterday and today, "working from home".
Annoying thing is, to keep my status on Skype for Business green and not "away" or "off line" which just looks bad, I have to keep pressing my keyboard before 15 minutes or up or it will lock automatically.
And before anyone says change the settings, I can't as our desktop guys have it locked down and I would have to hack the registry to unlock it.
I may work in IT but I've been a Manager way too long to be able to that sort of shite any longer.
I will say "Happy Holidays" to all you Ferners and hopefully 2020 will be a better year.

@Machpants fark when I was at the council I am sure we knocked off at mid-day..or at least my Dept did

Similar here...
I work in State Government here in NSW and we are the same, if you are working and not on leave - and our official close down started on Monday - then you are meant to do a full days work or at least be present for a full day. That's 8 working hours plus the mandatory 30 minute lunch break for me but at least I started around 7 am so I can finish 3:30 but I'll stick it out to 4-4:30.I've told all my few staff working today that they can finish early between 3 to 3:30 and I'll just keep an eye on things for a bit after that.
Plus I see my Executive Director keeps coming online in Skype so I don't want to look like I'm taking the piss today.
