Did Santa bring you what you asked for?

I didn’t even bother sending my letter to Santa up the lum as he has let me down so often before. How did everyone else fare? Did Alex Smith get his ultrasonic bath?

 

Got my Primus 77 stove fettled in time for Christmas day brews. Mince pies warmed on Trevor’s Radius 119 cook-top.

Haven't seen many family members yet, but my youngest son gave me a bottle of Gouden Carolus single malt whisky. He's a good kid!

 

Jean,
Did Alex need a bath? Ooops, right ultrasonic bath, okay...
I guess this counts:
I got my Vapalux A.M RAF E41 just before Christmas! Can't wait to get started on that project! Spent a lot of Christmass' looking for one of these!

 

Nice one George.

 

Whiskey made from the same mash as tripel in Belgium. That must be unique. I must find some to try.

 

Hi @Fireexit1 , when I was in my 20s I loved the Gouden Carolus beer, now I love the whisky!

 

He did very well this year!

 

Tres jolie JonD.

 

For sure it is Jean. I think that tank bottom is saying April 2019...

282s have been in the local camping shop for some time now and I thought they were slow moving stock perhaps being 10years old or so.
It seems I was wrong about that. Santa has helped them out and apparently they in return delivered within the hour to save him a journey. Remarkable.
(It was all a very pleasant surprise to me).

Since there is only one 282 in the Gallery and it's from 2000 I think I should add this one before they go completely extinct. As I suspect they will before long.
What? It runs on FUEL? Arrgh!!

 

Is it talking out of its a£$e, then?

I'll get my coat...

 

No need David - 'tis funny all the same. The question - have I decoded the right date?

 

I've absolutely no idea but that's what I'd take it as. Mind you, I've generally no idea about Coleman, despite have boatloads of them...

 

Yes, made in 2019, but I can't read the month. Old eyes won't let me...

 

No ultra sonic bath after all, thanks for asking Jean. However a nice ex Dutch Military veritas landed instead, just before the EU boarder shut down. Very pleased with it, have been after one for a while and will get it lit in due course.

 

A much more exciting present Alex.

 

I got a lovely little DAB radio from my dear cousins, a diary from their lads, and a Spike Millican calender...
