Looks like Santa didn't forget you. Nice gifts. No gun stuff for me....unless you count a Xbox game with a lot of shooting in it. Does that count?

No, just some chocolates.
My Mum passed away on Dec 27th aged 93¾ and her cremation was on Jan 3rd so things have been rather subdued here.
I am still waiting for confirmation that the SMLE I bought for our 40th Wedding Anniversary has been shipped

No firearm related gifts for me this year.
I'm sorry to read about your mother passing, Duncan.

Duncan, my condolences for the loss of your Mother.
And I consider you a lucky man to have had her in your life for so long,
most of us aren't that lucky......
.
Peace is that brief, quiet moment in history.......... when everybody stands around reloading.
