If you've got a birthday in November or December, you'll know what it's like. Suddenly you get a rush of people asking you what gift you'd like; so you give them a suggestion; then they say "And what about Christmas too?" You have to start thinking fast.

It's been a long time since I looked at my Amazon wishlist but I'm really impressed at how much better it has got since the last time I looked. The Compact View is really useful, especially now it lets you make changes to multiple items at once (select a bunch of stuff you've decided you no longer want, remove them all in one go).

Of course I'd forgotten where my wishlist was, so I used the "Find a wishlist" feature and banged my name in.

Three of us at Amazon

And look - there are two other Giles Turnbulls with Amazon accounts! And one of them's not far away from me, in Marlborough. I'd heard of one other Giles Turnbull before, but the thought that there's potentially four of us in the UK is exciting indeed.

I wonder what stuff they want?

Giles Turnbull from Abergavenny has modest requests. Giles Turnbull in Marlborough only wants a Curtis Mayfield CD, and has wanted it since 2000. I'm almost tempted to get it for him.

Neither of them are anything like as greedy as me.
