Singletrack subscription is what I asked for. Generally if I want/need something then I buy it. A subscription is the sort of thing that I wouldn't buy for myself.

Having said all that I`ll probably end up getting clothes.

no bloody idea! I don't really want or need anything in particular.

an extra day off each week? £100,000 in cash to enable me to take a few years off work?

Asked for a Vosprung Air Sleeve.

Will probably get SFA and a massive bill for several tonnes of plastic crap for the kids.

I read that as Kylie Minogue at first! I'd be happy waking up to that on Christmas day. I doubt she would though....

Ask them to put it to charity instead. either pick a charity or let them chose. I get a couple of token pressies value of around a tenner and the rest to famine charities

I usually do this too but this year I've asked for a halo, a sack cloth and some stale bread.

Still can't believe no-one's bought me a custom stem cap. I've got six bikes, come on people this is an easy gift option 🙂

What I want: Happiness. What I am likely to get: Not happiness.

I'll take some nice socks instead though.

Mountain rescue is my usual beneficiary for things like this

Already got them GaryM

We have reached a situation in my family that all of us have everything we want and need. So pressies are either duplication or unwanted. A couple of things I was given last year went straight to the charity shop. At least only a tenner was wasted and the charities got something out of it

Yep same, here. The few things we get given end up in the local charity shop!

Of course.
You should see what some people wear in first class these days, it's a disgrace.

Anyone have a picture that illustrates my point?
