    As usual, I'll start, since it's Christmas morning here already!

    Merry Christmas from all the Thunders, big and small, and a great family day to all. Count your blessings!

    Merry Christmas everyone. Here in Norway we do the celebrations on the 24th, opening presents after the Christmas dinner in the evening.

    A good winter jacket, as the previous one was getting a bit too worn. And a couple more books on programming for my hobby. We are also moving towards brighter days, currently we have 24 hours darkness. The sun will finally reappear the 21st of January, pretty much exactly two months since we last saw the sun.

    How about you? Had a good time with family?

    Wow 24hours of darkness? Where the heck do you live?

    I live in a desert, so no jackets for me. Got a couple of random games and a new hat.
    Oh, and a lot of money, gonna put it on the new car payment.

    I live in a little city called Tromsø, far north in Norway. Mid-summer we have 24 hours sunshine.

    I hope those new games were interesting. Roughly 10 years ago I got Soulbringer as a random game gift, turned out to be an awesome game. So those random game gifts can be pretty cool sometimes.

    My stepfather bought them at a second-hand bookstore and I've only heard of one.
