Cheers for everyone who suggested presents.

I'll quickly go through and tell you why they're all terrible suggestions :->

Wireless Laptop - not a terrible suggestion, but I'm not sure when it'd be more useful than a desktop.

Car + License - I really don't need to be able to drive more than 5 or 6 times a year, and all of those tend to be bypassable with a fair amount of ease. The amount of cost/effort it takes to look after a car (and buy one) is not worth the effort.

Big Foam Party - actually, not bad. That would probably be fun. I'm not sure I know enough people and a cool place to have one though :->

DVDs to replace videos - I'm actually happy to watch videos 99% of the time. If I was buying DVDs I'd spend the money on things I didn't have (West Wing, Six Feet Under, Deep Space 9, etc)

Erin, on a big sugary cake - yes. and no.

Breadmakers - yes they're cool. But very few people use them more than once, and I'm not supposed to eat bread.

Blowjob on shrooms - I'd _love_ some shrooms, if anyone has access to them, but I'm not that bothered by blowjobs, to be honest.

A copy of Fable - That would require the aforementioned XBox that I'm not sure I'd use all that much.

Vacation - would be lovely, if I had more time off. But yeah, time off is always good

A fish - actually, there was no milk in the fridge this morning, but there was some Salmon I cooked two days ago, still wrapped in foil. So I had salmon for breakfast.

baking/cooking - While I occasionally enjoy cooking, it's something I tend to do with my brain off, while thinking about other things (well, to the extent that that's possible without burning things too much)

Gamecube - see XBox

Party/hugs - definitely hugs, and a party might be nice, although I do tend to go and hide every so often.

Immortality - Ok, there's one thing I'd definitely take.

a nice quiet evening with people I like - ooh, definitely.

a quiet life - A few days of quiet life would be nice, anyway

a spanking - actually, I'm not sure if I'd enjoy that or not. Heck, I'll try anything once.

cheese - thus speaks someone who doesn't know of my loathing for mouldy milk... (although I do like yoghurt)

Any other suggestions?

Jeez, XBox = Fable + BC, what more could you possibly want (that I could get on the cheap)?

Anyway, _you_ don't need to own an XBox, _you_ merely need to know someone who owns an XBox ;-)

IIRC significant quantities of Edinburgh have wireless access, mostly courtesy of Martin Ling, so a wireless laptop would permit in-pub/park geekery, which has to be good :)
