Oooh, fancy!

Gingerbread biscuits
Handkerchiefs
Money (apparently, not hit my account yet)

Things I bought for myself whilst buying presents for other people:

Concert tickets
32" Sony Bravia LCD flatscreen jobby
Slanket (Hunter Green)
Books, clothes, CDs and DVDs
Looking at buying a PS3

Things bought for other people:

Slippers (at my dad's request)

Previously mentioned concert tickets are also for someone else, though not technically a Christmas gift.

This year I managed to spend a full two hours at my parent's house before getting irritated and having to leave - I think the record before that was a good 4 hours. Did get to watch Scrooged though.

My family are planning to boil me and as such have bought me thermal socks, a thick jumper, a nice shirt and a wooly scarf.
Also cuff-links, chocolate, O'Brian and Lock stand-up DVDs and a funky battery charger (AC -> Batteries -> USB).
Off to see some family tomorrow- I believe they have Rock Band, so fun will be had.

I got Ramsay's *** Chef book book I've been after for ages, the recipes aren't exactly everyday ones, but it'll be fun sourcing some of the ingredients.

Got my Dad a weather station which we nailed to the shed this afternoon, the control device appears to let you select the weather you desire, but unfortunately didn't have a snow option.

I cooked and did Alton Brown's Steak au Poivre complete with huge flambé.
