Nope! Relative day is tomorrow I'm pleased to say :-D So I've been playing with my Xmas presents at home.

Firstly I was taking photos with my N95 and Bluetoothing them to my new printer that prints them out for me at 6" x 4" 8-)

At the moment I'm smashing up the frontroom and chopping my family into pieces with a radio controlled helicopter. How the hell do you fly those things? :lol:

I've got loads of radio controlled helicopters... they are all a pain to fly at first!

Will do mate. It's only a £25 cheapy that charges for 30 minutes for 5 mins flying time. I'll have to get a really good one soon. I have radio controlled engine powered aircraft in the loft, but nowhere to fly them as people start ringing the authorities as soon they here the engine noise.

Can you fly flight simulators? I've done 'Airbus 320 Volume II' on the Amiga, but now I'm giving MS 2002 a try and could do with some help.

Ahh yeah, I've seen one of those in the shops! I've been thinking about getting one!! They really look like fun.

You're lucky. I've spent the whole day with the other half's family who are driving me mad. Having spent the last 2 hours deciding which film to watch they proceeded to talk incessantly throughout :-x Fortunately I'm sleeping on a sofabed in the conservatory and a stinking cold has granted me the excuse for an early night with the iPhone. Ahhhh sweet double-glazed peace and solitude :lol:

Well, I decided to spend xmas alone this year. First Christmas since I split up with Jennifer... I must say I'm enjoying the quiet, though it is a bit lonely and very boring. Earlier I made myself a massive christmas dinner, which was nice, It would be a pretty good xmas if it wasn't for my horrid cold :-/

Bored, lonely and ill - sounds rubbish! Come to Newbury and we can listen to music to pass the time and commiserate about our colds ;-)

Yesterday I've been to relatives and it was very nice :-)
Now I am at my parents' with my laptop :lol:
Not bored out of my brains, though, I am never bored out of my brains. :-)
I got enough music and games on my laptop, and a couple of nice movies...
Besides, I got a part of my collection of vintage computers in working state here at my parents'. They need attention too, see?
And the canary said: \'chirp\'

Right, so you're not bored because you've got your laptop - which was exactly my point :-)
