Hahaha! It was actually my step-dad which he also classed as a 'uni gift'. Makes the pair of pink socks I got him one year seem reasonable.AFKABartram said:1 -
Nice! It's at Shepreth Park near Cambridge but I know Paradise well. I do love lemurs and I'll be doing it with my girlfriend which will make it even more special. It will definitely be putting my 'Real Men Love Lemur' t-shirt to the best possible use.Leroy Ambrose said:
I've done that. Paradise wildlife park, near Broxbourne? This is by far the best Christmas present you will ever receive. I had an incredible time.RedPanda said:I have a lemur experience, basically where in a zoo I'll be sent into the enclosure with food and they jump all over me. That will be bloody brilliant.

Whatever floats your boat. Bear in mind, lemurs are matriarchal - they might not appreciate itRedPanda said:

Right, beat this.
My old Mum, 83 years old, got me (obviously from a charity shop) a FLOPPY DISK with some Phil Collins tracks on it and a book with the music and words.
WTF, just don't bother!
Plus side, it made the book '80 recipes for your bread maker' seem quite good! (and I haven't even got a fecking bread maker!)14 -

It gets worse. My sister has just told me that she bought my Mum a bread maker last year. Yes, you've guessed it, it had a free recipe book with it.........Absurdistan said:

It wasn't Christmas in our house without a good old laugh at Nan's latest money saving present. She virtually invented regifting and often used to give last years present back to mum and dad because she'd forgotten who gave it to her in the first place.
As kids it was a race to finish the church jumble jigsaw first to find out how many pieces were missing this year!
I'll tell you what though, we got and still get more enjoyment out of Nan's crappy old, broken, second hand presents than we would ever have got out of a shiny new one and we treasure the memories.1 -
I almost pissed myself at the phil Collins one.
Just tucking into my Caol Ila now... Presents are better when you choose them yourself!0 -
Quality, @stone..cheers for a dump & chuckle0

I remember taking an unwanted M&S pressie back when they did that scheme.The woman behind the jump looked puzzled and asked for help.Eventually a third person was called and she reckoned they stopped selling the gift at least 8 years previously!!!
I got a mini helicopter as well this year absolute dogs! With enough ale to float a Battleship.Perfect!0 -
