My great-aunt does quite well out of this. My mum got a plastic leopard print high heel, just the one, and was told it was a table decoration for displaying a bottle of wine. As one does…

MIL got me a Campervan Cookbook with amazing new recipes like –

* English breakfast
* Museli with yoghurt
* Chilli con carne

It is clear she did not look inside but ticked a present off her list of people to buy for.

My Gran seems to want to give me a worse present each year. Last year I got a pair of Lidl gloves but this year I got a small painting she’d done in a photo frame with the flip out stand bit broken off.

Amazing!

I’ve done alright this year but my Nan had a friend who used to give her presents back.

Apparently this ladies birthday was in August and for years my Nan used to give her a present that she would receive back at Xmas.

Took her a couple of years to suss it out but, one birthday present she sent were some chocolates and she drew on the corner with felt tip. Yep, that Xmas they got sent back.

Mr Mule gave me a blu-ray player.

Under most circumstances this would be a brilliant present. Unfortunately it didn’t work quite as well as it could have done, because I gave him a blu-ray player too.

Great minds eh! 😆

Waller, are we related?

Mrs Ps nephew gave her a plastic photo frame containing 3 pictures of the baby they had in September. One of them is even in focus… Just what we wanted!

A Jeremy Clarkson book of MsD’s brother and sister-in-law.
MsD could hardly keep her face straight..

We got a cheque for a decent amount of money from my wife’s nan. Only the amount in numbers didn’t remotely match the written amount and the name was a mixture of my wife’s and sister in laws, spelt completely wrong…

SIL gave me this! TBH its sort of funny!

Blue stratos aftershave off the wifes gran. Might come in handy for stripping paint or keeping the local cats out of my gardens!!!

£10 Primark gift card Yay!!

I got nice gifts!!! 😀

Oh you ungrateful lot !!

From my partner- a wrapped packet of angel delight..

Main and only present from my brother in law- ‘a drumstick lolly’

To say I’m ecstatic really would be an understatement !!

Must have been the only one’s left in the shop!!!

You seem to be confusing bad with truthfull. 🙂

Mrs W got a bottle stopper from Ann Summers – now in the wheelie bin.

I’m not sure that was a “bottle stopper”

I thought the plastic “bronze” bird bath was the best until I got to the plastic leopard print high heel wine holder!
We didn’t get anything awful, the nearest was a scarf off Mum that was “British Airways check-in desk” style, (as opposed to a nice stripey woolly one), totally not my style.

chunky.
If you don’t want them slippers i’ll have em.
I can wear them when i’m posting on here. 🙂

A robot patterned chefs hat too small. Will never be used and is even too crap to go in the kids dressing up box.

My 8 y.o. and I have concluded that next birthday/Christmas we have to provide the grandparents with a list!

And if that doesn’t work the next step is buy the presents and send them the bill.

Do I win £5?

MsD’s brother and sister in law bought me Jeremy Clarkson’s ‘The world according to’ – i sat down today and dutifully tried to enjoy it.

I lasted 5 minutes, after a rant about letting people park where they like in order to ensure small town prosperity & a denial of climate change the book was hurled across the room!

The bloke really is an absolute tool.

Only if you think you can honestly resell it at that price!

Just got a onesie here. From Primark with a Nordic pattern across it. It’s actually quite tasteful 😳
