What did you treat yourself with when SFP came?

As title says, SFP came (and went fast), what treat did you buy yourselves?

For me it was a new pair of wellies. Made in Germany ironically enough;)

I dont get the SFP but the father does . I'm going to treat myself to a cheque from his book for a new chainsaw this week , ours gave up the ghost the last day

i put nearly all of it into a new cublice shed and it linked 2 sheds together i now have 60 cublices under the one roof with the milking parlour alongside them it was on the long finger for a few years

I had a brief dalliance with my SFP, and like strangers in the night, we parted ways without know much about eachother.

got santa sorted, bought myself a laptop and paid SOME of my bills, enough to keep the pressure off for a month or two

in previous years the sfp went back into the farm, this year's is going on the dwelling house (well we do want to increase it's value a bit before the property tax :pac:)

a solid fuel stove, tv for kitchen and a new shower unit in the new year.

Could do with a new bin ourselves for the weanling and heifer nuts - who'd you buy it off?

A new chainsaw, sheeting for the calving pen, a few traditional gates, a big concrete trough, a new cowbox, a hook drencher, 4 new boots for the jeep...and many more small bits that have slipped my mind I am sure.
