All this living in bare feet stuff is great, but they certainly don't look too pretty after a while.
 
Well having read the "What did I get" thread I felt rather bummed...but then I came here and got reminded that giving ACTUALLY is more fun than receiving! (If you put in a little time and effort)

Mum: Lush (look it up on UK google) Gift Box
Dad: Richard Branson Autobiography, Dan Brown book
Sister: Photogrpahy book which she has wanted for ages but never been able to buy for herself (she's a skint student), and a CD
Best Friend (who I might fancy a teeny, weeny little bit): A day trip to london to go shopping, then off to see the producers at the theatre in some of the best seats in the house. And a book called "The Goddess guide" (It's awesome - I want a copy for myself)
Equally best friend: Why don't penguins feet freeze book, and a kit put together by me to make a vesper Cocktail (or 20)
Other equally best friend: A remote control car/plane, which cost £2.94 - masterful bargain hunting there! (in honour of his aspirations to own a "car that can fly...one day")

I enjoyed giving them and buying them easily as much as I did opening my gifts this morning! (especially the trip to London... - although the gift she gave me in return was equally awesome :D)
