The joy of making something as a gift for those occasions is infinitely more enjoyable than signing your signature on a skinny piece of paper and spending the next 6 months paying it back.

You're right Dan, we spoil our kids rotten and all they do is ask what else we got them. They've been taught from the outset that Christmas and birthdays are all about presents. Trouble is, when I jack up about it I'm a grumpy old miser"I don't practice what I preach because I'm not the kind of person I'm preaching to."

Anyway, I would love the complete James Bond CD set, but pigs don't fly over Chez Bodgy.
Oz Winner and Liz could watch them with Naomi Campbell and me, adding a couple of more obscure Single Malts to the reds.Bodgy
