[Bazile]

1.What's the most valuable ( monetary terms ) x-mas present you have ever received ?

2. What unusual / odd , x-mas present have you received in the past ?

[mallyh]

2 for a couple of years the adults decided to buy presents costing no more than £5 we had a lot of fun with trashy(and rude) things xx

1. My Daughter, Christmas Eve 1981 :o)

2. A Dehumidifier from the OH one year !!

1. Not sure but would imagine my Paul Smith handbag must be up there. For longevity though my 'Simon' toy is definitely the most enduring, not that you asked about enduring gifts.

2. A friend once gave me a pair of acrylic socks with diamanté cats on. I don't wear synthetic fibres, am ambivalent towards cats and don't like sparkles.

Baz.....1. Probably my scope and bird watching equipment....

Can't think of the oddest Christmas present so will this do....

When I lived in Canada I opened the door to a man holding a little gift box.
He said he'd been watching me and wanted to give me a present....before I could slam the door he thrust the box at me and ran....
It contained an insect magnifying jar?????

A superfluous Hyphen, I found a use for it eventually

£3,000.

A framed pair of xxx white underpants.

[gness]

Why framed, David?..x

[Islay]

1. welsh terrier puppy
2. a vest (I was 23)

[david small]

My son thought framed pants highly amusing, so did I. Even funnier is that they fitted.

[gness]

I like your son!!!....☺

[yogi-bear]

My Dad gave me a gift of his prize Ford Capri at Christmas 1984.... so that was priceless to me... mint condition too.


A parachute jump in Surrey .....when I was absolutely sh****** myself, as never done one.

Done a few now for charity fund raisers etc and love it.

[mazie]

Well she's cost us a fortune over the last 35 years(nearly) Baz !

I would say my Dad's new lungs for Christmas in 2003.

Definitely the most valuable and unusual present. Couldn't be topped.

1. a television for my kitchen.
2 One Christmas my husband bought me a set of oven gloves,, a new shopping bag and a CD that I was going to buy anyway.

[Georgiesmum]

He had asked me what I would like beforehand and i said perfume please, any type. but he said I had got plenty already!
