In the online edition of The Daily Telegraph today there a list of Christmas presents that women do not want. These are:- Sexy Santa underwear...Housecoat...Amy Childs vejazzled onesie...Plastic surgery voucher...Shaping underwear...Boots gift set (Shampoo, etc.)...Dustmop slippers...Festive leggings...Celebrity perfume (e.g. Lady GaGa perfume)...Workout CD (eg Essexercise)...Novelty Christmas jewellery...Fake designer handbags...Cheap engagement rings...50 Shades of Grey charm bracelet.
An office colleague of mine once gave his wife a vacuum cleaner for Christmas
One year, when I was a kid, my mother said several times that she must get a new frying pan.
She wasn't impressed on Christmas day when she opened her presents!
My ex bought me a 50" tv and games console... funny it was exactly what he had been talking about just 3 weeks before christmas (to buy himself!!!). I never did have control of the remote and he bought himself 3 games to play over christmas too :(
My OH bought me a useful amd necessary, if rather unromantic present last year - a new windscreen for the car! (and not even gift-wrapped!) This year I doubt if I will get anything for Christmas, as he's just had an operation on his hand, so can't drive - so I've told him that I hoped that I would get something extra nice when he is mobile again - and hopefully not car orientated!
Chocolate, I don't want any bloody chocolate! I have chocolate from last Christmas and Easter in the fridge, I hardly eat the damn stuff and I don't want any more!!!
Mr A has bought me a deep fat fryer, a lawnmower, an iron, a hoover, not all at the same time but over the years. All coincided with Xmas.
Funny that.....
