Come on you ungrateful lot, what were your [through gritted teeth] "oh that's lovely" presents this year.

I got a crappy home-made looking (it was produced by the large international he works for) cookbook off a mate, because it featured a recipe from his wife in it. We're taking them out for a posh meal.

Carpet tack removal tool??????

Top that would fit a toddler - I'm 6'5" hehe

Over to you.

Three scarves. FFS I have one already and never wear that. Also a pair of Halfrauds driving gloves. I have never seen the purpose in driving gloves in modern cars.

Other than that pretty pleased: 2 track experiences; Caterham and Atom, bottle of Jura and an ice cover for the car.

A pair of multicoloured ski socks, size 9 to 12.

I am a size 3 or 4 and don't ski.

I think someone bought them according to my dress size, not shoe size!

Well my ex MIL who is normally very modern and fashionable got me 2 trulyy awful pieces of crockery which are so dated its unreal, you know white with bad blue pattern, and they don't even seem new I think they were off a car boot, so I don't know if it supposed to be some spiteful point but I don't get it if it was..as I never expected a present from here, she never liked me anyway. Either that she finally has gone mad or bankrupt.
