My Son Would Like To Do This To His xBox 360

Unfortunately right now, my son's XBox 360 has gone off for repair. 10 months old and the DVD drive appears to have failed (wouldn't happen to an Apple would it??)

Thankfully it's still under it's original warranty, so a couple of weeks from now it'll be back.

One thing I think he'd like to do at some point would be to customise his Xbox 360 with a new skin but perhaps it's just as well he hasn't done that so far as it's gone off for repair, and I wouldn't like to think that Microsoft would have any excuses to reject the warranty work.

He misses that machine you know...

Chuck Makes A Great Christmas Idea

Christmas is fast approaching and I've seen a few websites displaying what they think is going to be the hottest Christmas gifts for kids this year.

One site that caught my eye, but as yet I haven't seen this toy in any top tens, was this one about Chuck My Talking Truck

This guy looks great fun.

What surprised me most was this is a Tonka toy. I remember these being "tough" toys when I was young and really aimed at toddlers. I had a big yellow dumper truck from Tonka that was just brilliant. It was big yellow and made of metal and was so strong it practically lived in my back yard in amongst the gardening tools.

Chuck looks like he would be a lot happier indoors having a nice chat with your toddler and keeping them entertained for hours.

Chuck could be the surprise perfect gift for toddlers this Christmas!
