Re: what was your worse christmas prezzy recieved


Mine was from my aunt and uncle. I was about 13 and really wanted a leather jacket. A cheapie would've done. What they did was wrap up my aunt's old, bottle green jacket and gave it as a gift.

Although it wouldn't bother me now . . . at the time I was a sensitive teenager and was very offended and upset at having a hand-me-down wrapped up as a present

Re: what was your worse christmas prezzy recieved


I can't really think of anything - though I'm sure there have been a few oddities.

What I really hate is being given money (How wierd am I?). If you can't be @rsed to think about what I might actually like, or to give me flowers/chocs/bubbly as an easy but always acceptable gift, or even a small box of chocs with a voucher/token of some sort, then please don't bother. Bah humbug!

My worse pressy was a brass clock, it had a naked lady standing beside the clockface, and I hated it, it now lives in a box in the attic!!!

Mine was a pooper-scooper

We had just acquired a second dog, Tam1, and everyone thought a pooper0scooper would be a good pressie however they did make up for it with a cosmetics bag

Re: what was your worse christmas prezzy recieved


I like surprises!!!

All the time I was married I was either told, just go buy what you like or we wont bother with presents for each other.

If I get a present these days from anyone, I like a surprise. My friend once didnt have much money on a birthday so she got me some moisturising cream and some oil of olay which she knew I used. Was so much better than rubbish I didnt really want. More thoughtful.

Agree money is rubbish!!!!

Don't think I've had a really naff one. Any present to me is lovely and even more so if it looks like thought has gone into choosing it
