Xmas Thread 2022 - Best and Worst Presents

Best present was a wats app Christmas message from Sean Claire for my daughter. A massive thank you to Tracey Leaburn for sorting this out. So tomorrow my daughter going to buy a new Charlton shirt with Claire on the back. 

Worse present. Was some woof woof beer from the mother in law. 

My missus got me a Sonas beam sound bar complete with two rear speakers, already it’s set up and we’re watching Die hard the Christmas movie, bit disappointing there’s no sub but it’s my birthday next week so 🤞
Other than that, walking trainers and cargo trousers seem to be this years socks and pants replacements. 

Got some touchscreen gloves (so wont get cold hands when out with the camera now), also got some Macro Extension tubes, cheap alternative to Macro Photography instead of splashing £300-£1000 on a proper lens.

They were things I'd put on my Amazon wish list, so delighted with both.

No bad presents, my wife gave me vouchers for the new clothes shop in Blackfen, Tonics. Have already bought a few bits in there, it’s great shop. Best present though was just a stocking filler from my wife, a selection of miniature after shaves. Will save having to take a full bottle whenever I/we go away for weekends (which we do fairly regularly).

Best is the Charlton hat @Athletico Charlton very kindly sent down for our son. Very much appreciated and the boy is over the moon with it. 

Lovely handbag (I picked it).
A pair of earrings Pat Butcher wouldn’t be seen dead in 😳 (I definitely didn’t pick them)

Just make sure they spell it Clare 😉

Thanks mate. Much appreciated 

Not my presents but............

Best: Daughter and son in law bought our eldest grandson a car. He opened a box with a key in it then looked out the window to see it with a bow on the bonnet 

Funniest comment: My daughter bought her husband 2 x tickets to Duran Duran at the O2. She has been telling us she will also treat him to a meal etc on the night but will not include it in the gift.

Son in law opens it, looks at us all says “fantastic, I will have to think about who I am taking”, daughter says “are you joking” to which he replies “no, you don’t like Duran, Duran”

Awkward 

The FIL gave me the Neville Staples autobiography, Rude Boy. Will enjoy reading that.

My wife got me a belly button cleaner.

Was he expensive?

A vegetable brush :-(

Proper Charlton.

Best present is tickets to see Mike Bubbins in March. 

That's cool except that illustration for Thames Ironworks. That crossing of the arms thing is a recent trend. 
I stand to be corrected but I think it unlikely.

Was given some nice aftershave and then was told I coudnt open it as the wife had forgotten to buy her brother a present and said she'd be wrapping it up again haha

And her brother is a gooner😁
