My red scooter when I was about 6 - I'd had to share everything with my sister up until then but this was the first big toy I'd ever had for me only

Loved Christmas as a child. Love them even more now for mine.

There was a boy in my street had that, I was so so so so jealous. I actually saw this guy a few years ago and I told him about my severe jealousy of his Evil Knieval toy, he looked at me like I was potty and couldn't even remember the flippin toy
A camera when I was 10.
My Nintendo DS.
I bought it for myself, wrapped it up and put it under the tree.
This year I've been dropping hints to myself about an iphone. I just hope they're not too subtle

My brother and i have a funny relationship ...he's had some knocks and likes to keep a distance while I always try to help with stuff and keep trying to get him more involved. A couple of years ago for christmas he gave me a sewing chest that he'd made from scratch himself - the time and effort he'd put in to making it for me had obviously been considerable. I was in tears when I saw it - and I'll treasure it for ever ...... he still won't come round for christmas dinner though!
back on topic...
best gift... as in, total surprise... and totally something I had always wanted..
a pair of diamond stud earrings from my parents!
they'd been to New York for a short break the month before and had had a moment of madness & bought me them.
It took a while for them to convince me they were real (on account of previous years gifts cubic zirconia studs they would try to pass off as diamonds, by putting them in decent jewellers boxes)... but they were. And beautiful. Not huge... they were a third carat each... but excellent quality... they blinged!
I wore them all the time... til a couple of years ago when I took them out and put them on the mantlepiece whilst I dyed my hair.
A couple of hours later there was only one there! I have spent hours with the mantlepiece & fire pulled out and my head up the spider infested chimney & fireplace looking for it... never have found it.
the remaining one I have let my daughter have on long term loan.... as she has one ear pierced twice... so has the diamond in the odd hole. The condition being, that if I find the missing one I want it back.

I got a pair of red boots when I was 6 or 7 that i was thrilled with especially as it was a white Christmas (the last proper one we had in London) and I got to wear them out for a walk in the woods so they really looked good against the snow!
