What's in your stocking this year?

[TheBrownDog]

Have we done this yet? What's on your Christmas wish/gift list? I'll start:

• a few wheel building tools. I'd like a spoke tension meter and a decent nipple driver and if resources can stretch to it a dishing gauge. Please.
  
  some magic tape. Magic because I can put it on my new-to-me Lauf forks and carbon bars to protect them from bar bag straps grinding them to dust, but also be completely invisible and easy to remove when I feel like removing it. Otherwise know as moon-on-a-stick-tape.
  
  a dropper post that comes back up when I've got an overloaded saddle bag back there.
  
  a new paint job on my OOF that doesn't require sending it off for 12-14 weeks.
  
  one of those doohickies that fits under the stem and you attach your stem bags to rather than getting into a tangle of velcro.

I think that will do.

Calvin and Hobbes complete collection is the only thing I’ve hinted at to Mrs-Voodoo, everything else will be a surprise (asssuming I’m getting anything else…!)

[Bearbonesnorm]

Absolutely nowt, sorry.

A couple of Tailfin cargo cages, but I'm starting to wonder if my hints were strong enough.

Hopefully my wife.....well in hers, more fun.

Actually hoping for some ND grad filters/holder for my camera.

I would prioritise the dishing gauge over the tension meter. You can build a perfectly good wheel without a tension meter, but you'd struggle without a dishing gauge.

I'm not expecting anything cycling related this year beyond the traditional cycling themed socks. My family wishlist tends to only include the smaller cycling stuff that needs replacing or the odd tool but I don't think my family will buy me the torque wrench that's on there and everything else has had such low usage in the last 18 months that nothing needs replacing yet.

My mental wishlist for me to buy myself in the new year:
A set of poles to go with the new tarp.
Dyneema cord for tarp.
A clue on how to pitch it.
Possibly some form of groundsheet though I'll probably just use my tent footprint.
A new mat to replace my current non-self inflating mattress.

Bought mine already, to be packaged up by the kids for me to look surprised on the 25th:

Wilfa Svart electric coffee grinder; my ageing elbows have finally had enough of my Porlex hand grinder three to four times a day.
Velosolo 6 bolt disc mount fixed cog; I'm going fixed single braked gravel commuter for the new year until my ageing knees start complaining like my elbows.

I don’t use mine anymore, exposure bracketing and photoshop have made them no longer necessary.

Meh ... Tony you got too many people who love you who won't follow that advice.

Hopefully a pair of slippers and one of those thermos mugs. Mum likes buying me pressies at Christmas so I indulge her! I'll be buying her some books and me Dad another pair of Crocs. Due to his duff ankle he always wears the right on out in double quick time so I buy him a pair every year. Pity I couldn't just buy him a right one. If anyone wants a load of left foot crocs size 8 let me know!

I shoot film as well as digital, I try and get as much done outside of photoshop as I can

Hopefully kids get me a Stolen Goat voucher and the wife volunteers for the local food bank so told her instead of getting me something to spend the money on food for Xmas for those in more need than me

cokins are great! and polariser are something you can't do in photoshop, or exposure bracketing... .!

Love the Cokin filters, I have used them for ages, sadly the set I have now wont fit my wide angle
