unhappy xmas

What's the worst present you've ever received at xmas. Mine has to be the West ham strip I was given when I was 14,God knows why. Worse still,other people thought it was a Burnley strip. Other gifts that stand out are,the Homer Simpson shower curtain,the U.S.S. enterprise alarm clock and an ear/nose hair trimmer with my name engraved on it. I want the money this year,then I can buy my own presents.

when i was about 12 i was hoping for a bike and my old man got me a plastic junior golfers kit.

Similarly I got a pro shot golf set with a sponge putting green. My Dad decided the green would make a great insole for his shoes,so we were left trying to putt for the US open and at the same time avoid disappearing down the size 9 foot shaped holes. He tried to pass them off as bunkers!

I will come back with a worst present when I can think of one but with regards to your West ham strip, it reminds me of when I started primary school and my mum and dad bought me a man utd kit (the one with the laces on the shirt!) for PE which was one of the copy strips with the sew on badge.

That time was really one of the bad moments in my life

I feel your pain KP.

My sister bought me the "Bolton Wanderers Premier League Highlights 2011-12" DVD.

Then you progressed to a baseball bat?

Good one SK!  

Fucking hate Christmas, it's not the money , it's the fucking hassle that goes with it.

Asked the wife what she wants for Christmas, she says there's nowt she wants, sorted 

That's code for "you're screwed, you have to chose a gift all by yourself..."
