If you got a present this holiday period let us all know what it was and why you love it so much!
I got the Aqualog L numbers Pleco book which is so packed full of great pictures of variants of the L numbers too! Just a great book!

I had to do my own Christmas shopping this year, but at least I know I'll be happy with what I got. They won't be here till Tuesday, but I got a group of six Oryzias woworae and twenty-five Corydoras hastatus.

I got lots of clothes and random stuff. I did get a Sega Genesis (with the original box) and seven games from my boyfriend though. This makes my 24th video game system, making video games my other hobby
We did also finally set up and finish our 375 gallon, which was our main present to each other.

Apart from an unusually bad hangover, some garish bjorn borgboxershorts & a rather smart mini toolkit i got a dozen Rasbora dorsiocellata (emerald eye rasbora) one of which turned out to be a tank bycatch of a vietnamese hovering loach, a new anubias coffeefolia (which i never seem to do well with)
Oh yes....& a cut above my eye where i got glassed in a pub (as an innocent bystander)

If they are anything like the shirt that Richard wore to the last UK catfish convention, I do not think we need proof. Or if we do, stand about 10 feet back from the screen with two pairs of shades and earmuffs on.
Amongst other great things I got the "History of the Native Woodlands of Scotland" book, a portable camping sink (to be used as a
foldable collecting bucket), some nosilife gear (
http://www.craghoppers.com/webapp/wcs/s ... 5751_11051 - "The ultimate travel shirt, equipped for hot climates with
permanent insect-repellency and no-niff antibacterial action. It's powerfully sun-protective; even shielding your sensitive neck with a flip-up SolarDry collar.") useful should I happen to find myself in the tropics and a Mercedes Benz golf towel. Eh? Jools? Golf? No danger seeing me on a golf course, but
it rocks as a fish room towel as it comes with a hook.
