Always enjoy this one.

    Dog was an early present to ourselves, Charlton top from Secret Santa (Brother-in-Law - AFC Wimbledon). -



    Worst present was a nice top from Mrs, 2 sizes too small. Cheers dear 😘 Be down to me to send it back now, no doubt 😉

    Is that her version of an unsubtle hint?

    Screwfix branded wooly hat. Apparently it came free with the Stanley knife which in and of itself is a distinctly average present!

    Got a Guinness wooly hat which I can’t see myself wearing. Did come with a can of the stuff though which is better than a knife.

    Got a Lego model of the Ferrari FXX K which is one of my favourite cars from my favourite marque.

    Also got a keyring with a slightly blurry picture of a puffin on it from the MIL...

    My ibrik (not made by Apple) for making Lebanese and other middle eastern style coffees (like Turkish).

    Also socks.

    Edit: both good presents!

    As we’re away, we said we wouldn’t bother with presents but my wife bought me a copy of the Glen Matlock book, I Was a Teenage Sex Pistol.

    3 boxes of dried goods/food and cleaning products. Like a large care package. From my sister. Probably the best present I've had in years.

    Got a couple of small Camera accessories so far, some Boss aftershave... A couple of small Lego sets and a Nintendo Switch 2 - The latter was more of a present that I got for my Son, but imagine I'll end up using it just as much :D

    We weren’t doing presents but we’ve had such a difficult year as a family due to mental and physical health issues that I wanted to do something special for my wife as she’s been an absolute rock. Went to the Tiffany’s flagship store on 5th Avenue yesterday and bought her earrings that I know she’s been looking at. Worth every penny so see her face, plus there’s a good chance I’ll have a free pass to get smashed at the Chelsea game.

    3 boxes of Imodium probably beats most on the worst Christmas presents.
