You fence? I just started last week. Haven't really done anything yet, just strength training and stuff. Should be interesting.

I used to fence as well, its such a fun sport. My instructor was well known and I think even went to the Olympics for it but he died so I do not take lessons anymore, real shame it was very fun.

I might also get a new Dremel, my existing one is wearing out!

Poor dude

Fenced for 4 years so have finally decided to get my own gwear. My Uni team's gear is rather iffy and doesn't really fit me.

Glad to hear of a new convert Cameraman, you'll have a blast. Foil isn't too exiting but it'll teach you the skills needed for Epee and Sabre.

I want:
16gb sdhc card
bluetooth GPS receiver
I'll leave my parents to surprise me with whatever else they want to get me.

Watch the "whatever else" be a "negative 16gb sdhc card" and a "negative bluetooth GPS receiver", essentially eliminating your Christmas.

New Computer (building it myself)
Blue 8GB Zune

That is all I know I am getting ATM.

Computer Specs

AMD Phenom X3 8450 2.1Ghz
2GBs of OCZ DDR2 1066 RAM
640GB HDD
Sapphire Radeon HD 3870 512MB
GIGABYTE GA-MA78GM-S2H Microatx motherboard

and a NZXT Apollo Case

I have ordered everything but the HDD

Didn't get the Quad because they sold out on the cheapest one, and then removed the combo deal I had with my Motherboard.

It is all good, 8450 is quite a nice when it comes to overclocking, people have been able to push 2.7ghz-3.0ghz Stable, and 2.5ghz with stock cooling, maybe even higher.

My father got me a Pandora preorder for my birthday, so I won't be getting much from him

As for my grandparents, Money, I guess. I'll probably throw it at electronics projects (like my portable)

Im not getting much this year

Its got to that point where Christmas presents are now mundane but useful things that i cant afford but need

(like books for uni and stuff)

but in terms of things i want, im just after money off most people, if i get enough collectively i might buy myself a cheap camcorder or some new microphones

I ordered MGS: Special Missions (thats VR Missions to you if you live in US)..

and I get money. I want some DJ Equipment, along with the required Pendulum & Chase & Status vinyls im missing.

Oh, and thanks for the link to those Gildan shirts, plain shirts are a lot easier.
