I can see the novelty with the Margaret Thatcher nut cracker but if I get a swan pin cushion in my stocking I wont be impressed ...

But it also begs the question - what is the worst xmas present you've ever had?? I'll have to have a think before I post.

Actually, that divers helmet ice bucket looks nice. I wouldn't ask for one for christmas, but if somebody gave me one I wouldn't be mad.

Oops, have to hurry back to the store to return Lady Rose's Boot Vase, and to think I thought I had the perfect gift. ;%

I can't really think of any bad gift I ever received. I have received some CD's of music artists I didn't really care for, but that isn't that bad.

If it came from you Barry, I'd love it {[]

Actually, Mo and Allesandra are more shoes girls, I'd prefer the bag

Just hope you enjoy your book on serviette folding )

I dont think I've ever received an awful present but I know the best present I ever had which was my daughter. She arrived Christmas Day 12 years ago.

( I may have mentioned that once or twice over the years on here ) )

I remember being younger and receiving the most ghastly frilly swimming costume you have ever seen, from my auntie. It was never worn. I've had some truly terrible things sent from her over the years to be honest. Every year I would just be thinking 'can't she have something off the list or just send me the money?!' She usually sent clothes that were not to my fussy tastes at all. The past few Christmas and Birthdays she has taken note however, as has my uncle in Australia (who has also not been the best at getting me the ideal present!).

I was delighted and positively over the moon when last year I received an itunes card from them both.

I always had a sneaky feeling that the Hillary Clinton nutcracker wasn't the first of its kind to hit the gift-market

I've been fortunate not to have received any truly lousy Christmas gifts---until this year, when I get...

An Extra Day Of Work Yes, I have to go in on Sunday (28th December), which was supposed to have been my day off. So I guess it wins the prize in my world

Just as well you liked it - without a receipt you couldn't exactly take it back could you?

And the runners-up

2) Well, that's what comes of wearing the Easter bunny outfit, LR!
3) Something involving the phrase 'Second Coming...' that might draw the mods' fire...

I could probably do an exchange but at that time of year and with the sales on there would be only broken, dirty ones left )
