Christmas Pressies

Just got my first one.

Ah Timmy, you been left out again?

Left out of what precisely, Nig...

Anything and everything?

This thread is shit, but better than most.

Everybody is going to get a voucher this year. If I can be arsed they'll even get it wrapped in shiny paper.

Aww, I didn't even know you were getting me anything, how much will it be for...?

I wouldn't even bother with the shiny paper.

In your case, it's 50p off your next purchase of Nescafe.

Well I have to post many gifts o/s and it costs the bomb. But I hate the idea of something as impersonal as a voucher, which you can't even wrap from here. Being a girlie girl I lurve wrapping and ribboning and making pressies look all ChristmaSSY. sO IN THE SPIRIT OF cHRISTMAS SELFISHNESS, i END UP SPENDING THE BOMB EVERY YEAR, WRAPPING ALL THE PRESENTS TO MY HEART'S CONTENT AND POSTING THEM O/S. tHEN i DON'T EAT FOR THE NEXT MONTH!! (Jezuz I hate it when I'm typing with my head down, and look up to find it's all caps. Soz.) And every year I promise myself it'll be vouchers next year. They make all the sense in the world, but I can't bring myself to do it.

I have received so far:
1 box Walker's jams, teas and shortbreads
1 huge nifty plastic container (empty) given by Great Aunt June
1 Glorious Australia calendar
1 Vienna Philharmonic DVD
1 French Provincial clock to go with my kitchen
2 boxes chocs, one Belgian.

Of course if I knew more Australians I could send them the 2009 Ashes Series DVD

Sadism is a most ungracious quality.

Are you sure you're an Aussie - I was half expecting a soap retort there...

Neighbours DVD?

My local Threshers is having a closing down sale - 30% off. So that's a bottle of Beaujolais Nouveau for one and all!
