An Early Xmas

We’ve been good this year and so we’ve asked Santa to give us some early Xmas gifts. And after handing over our hard-earned cash to the fat man in red, he willingly obliged and gave us what we wanted.

So what did we ask ol’ santa for? The kit we needed to travel the world and film our adventures. Or at least the kit we didn’t yet have.

That includes a brand new laptop with a Core 2 Duo CPU, 2GB ram and 160GB HDD and best of all, it weighs less than 2KG! Why didn’t we choose a mac? We’d already spent the money on the software and didn’t want to buy it again for the mac. Also, Grace needs Windows for her trading software (G: yes, Macbook is way sexier, but my trading is more important than that!). Besides, this laptop is 350 grams lighter than the lightest mac!

How would we show you life under water, or for that matter in the pouring rain without a water-proof case for our video camera? So Santa gave us one of those as well!

And last but not least, so that we could film for longer without our batts running out, we got a super-long-lasting mega-powerful battery for our camera :D It weighs about as much as a brick and is only a tenth of the size, maybe they’re using Uranium as the secret ingredient??

Sadly though, we couldn’t get any photos of Santa, he claimed to be camera-shy. I’d swear I saw him taking pictures with kids on his knees last Xmas though. Something fishy must be going on?
