a great set -- I've seen about 1/2 of them, but only owned Killjoy, so what fun to have these in my collection now, and I'm very much looking forward to seeing the ones I'm not familiar with.

A razor and a tin. Also some money which is going straight into my savings tin (The same one I got)
I got very little but it was a really good Christmas with the family. I didn't care for gifts so I'm alright. And if it counts, my "soccer" team finally won on Boxing Day, 4-1 and I was there so yay.
The money I got today because my dad treated my brother and sister but I couldn't find anything and actually didn't want anything.
