I got a lot of random things this year but managed to get 4 different mugs (from 3 people, two of whome are my family!!!) and 4 prezzents of chocolates.

I am sure they are trying to tell me something!!!

I think my worst presents are calendars as i always seem to get these and this year have 3 hanging in my room and 3 small "hand-bag" sized ones! I am still very dis-organised!!!

Just been on the phone to a good friend of mine, hes 6 foot odd, was in the Marines and an all round manly kinda guy.

His mum brought him a jigsaw rolling mat as one of his presents this year, and last year one of his presents off her was a cross stitch

lol

lol! my lovely sister in law always does a 'theme' when it comes to presents - one year the theme was chocolate, which was great. This year the theme was... wait for it... pears. Is a good job I like them! I now have lots of pear-flavoured and pear-scented goodies

bless her it took her a while to track lots of pear things down!

that really made me smile! I suppose its one way of making shopping more interesting or challenging depending on how you look at it!

Lol, these are so funny.

The telescope one, he probably wanted one himself, so bought you it instead...I do this all the time with my hubby...I buy DVD's and CD's that I want

[/quote]

Am guilty of this aswell! I got ym boyfriend the criminal minds boxsets last year cos i wanted them! I cnt help it! If the dvds crap i will still need to watch it!

I really can't think of any terrible presents except when i made ym holy communion as a kid, someone got me a pack of sponges and nothing else! I was only 7! Chocolate would have been better and cheaper! I still get "gifts"from the lady who got me the sponges! There not as bad as tht!

Loving these though givign me a good chuckle!!
