Geno 2.0 - Genographic Project Participation and DNA Ancestry Kit  ( I already know I am getting this from OH) I participated in the first phase to

discover my ancient history through my DNA, now I will found out if I have Neanderthal blood, saw a programme last night saying scientists now know we interbred and assimilated them and did not kill them off, all so very interesting.

I am preparing a box of all my family and ancient DNA history to hand down through the family.

A new iPad air.

I really don't know this year. The past two years I have had a kindle which I love.
I am really trying to think of something that will let me play with it on Xmas morning 

Every time I say that my hubby looks very worried.

Littleminnie I forgot to add an iPad Air  and maybe a MAC computer 

[Joyce]

I fancy a new digital camera. Hubby bought one a while back, but it's way to heavy for me to handle properly. I currently have a compact one, which is good but pictures aren't as sharp as his. I've managed to find one that doesn't cost an arm & a leg.

Lie in (as if!!!) A nice peaceful day. Paul O Grady on Radio 2 whilst cooking & being able to play with the kids new lego etc instead of slaving over a hot stove, (we are going to do different food this year to make it less of a chore.) Maybe a bit of snow after lunch but not so bad it causes road chaos or accidents. The puppies due in a couple of weeks will be 5 weeks old by then so I hope there are not too many & they are exceptionally well behaved & maybe constipated just for that one day   Nice film in the evening & a glass of wine.

Honeybun - are you collecting kindles then?   

[Limpy]

One of those smart phones, where you can really access the internet.

Every time I say that my hubby looks very worried ........ mine would be delighted 

Peace and quiet
Warmth
Mum to behave 
Long range weather forecast which is correct 

This thread is far too early though 

[dulciana]

A gorgeous meal cooked by various family members, as I'll have been playing for the Midnight and Christmas Day services (I really appreciate them doing this, as I can't be in two places at once), also in the company of my elderly Dad and our 16-year-old moggie; a peaceful day with no frayed tempers; beautiful music playing; a fantastic film or two; and presents??  I don't know, really - anything that's given with love and that makes me feel all warm and gooey inside, I suppose!
Oh, and no hot flushes - not a single one on Christmas Day, please!

"This thread is far too early though"

CLKD - I think you underestimate the amount of time some of us need before our hints make a blind bit of difference to our OHs

[CLKD]

For C.mas lunch DH helps Mum cook 2 brace of pheasants with chipolatoas, onions, bacon: with roast/mash, sprouts, peas, gravey, bread sauce and stuffing.  Well they do, I don't have sauce or stuffing.  That leaves plenty of meat for the next couple of days with pickles then it's done with.  When alone DH and I used to cook the C.mas pud for 12.30 and eat our main meal of pheasant or duck or goose in the evening.

We always take a large lump of beef to his brother's for Boxing Day, we buy it they cook it with the veg..  It's all the extra food stuffs that puts me off C.mas 

I don't hint to anyone these days, I say it like it is! after all, it doesn't suddenly appear, it's 13 months already before the next one 

[Rowan]

My OH likes my list well in advance and I like his too, so I can order on the internet and make sure they arrive in time.

Usually with my list I just can't think what I want and OH tends to leave it to the last minute and just grabs anything for me, this years I decided to be organised hence the "thread" and also this year I knew what I wanted

My geno kit is coming from America so takes a while.

[CLKD]

His brother was awful about buying gifts for me and his choice of cards ain't suitable even now so I developed a list in about, oh, mid-1990s! it's when he asks at a later date 'what did you think of the gift?' that makes me even more annoyed  .  You've given me something, bothered to wrap it and you want to know what?? usually by then I can't remember what he gave me anyway 

DH loves to shop for me, usually we go out together to buy but he likes to whizz round: apparently 

[Ju Ju]

I am asking my family for contributions towards an I-pad. I have a very big birthday next March, so with Christmas, I may have enough to buy one. It will mean I can Face Time my son and his wife. Skype is rubbish around here. We tend to talk on the phone, but I would love to see their faces.
