Did you see Countdown the other afternoon, when that Carole Vorderman had on a black shiny dress, with great big puff sleeves sort of 3/4 length, pulled in at the waist with masses of spare material bulging out over her deriere and it ballooned out down to her knees!! It made me feel quite ill! Yours is much nicer than that Lucky!!!!
Aw you're such a special mate - it's yours! I will send it to you.

You must have a pair of shoes somewhere to go with it lol!

Well, I've decided to join you.

Just to set the tone, this is the type of bracelet I'm currently into:




Seeing these, one of my staff decided to buy me this:


Pretty much cause for instant dismissal if you ask me.

The admin staff and managers also do a Secret Santa. The perpetrator of the above gift is not included in this. I usually manage to get something nice - last year I got a lovely woolly scarf, and the year before an Eminem calendar. The budget is £10. We have a new member of staff, and I think I drew the short straw. Just to give you an idea of my taste, here is my mobile phone:


...and here is my Secret Santa present:


Now I know I should not be ungrateful, but please.........

I'm curious to know what she did with the rest of the tenner!

Nah - don't like the bracelet and definitely don't like that 2nd thing, what is it exactly anyway??? I wouldn't be seen dead with it whatever it is. Is it a mobile phone bag sort of thing then??? Why the straps though??God forbid it's a blooming handbag Vicki with your taste in bags!!! No doubt you would have hit her with it if it was though??

Oh i do think Amanda with her cement mixer may give me with my ever so charming stuffed and mounted bearded collie head, a run for the title of worse present EVER received.
I really must dig the ghastly thing out..i think it's in the attic somewhere...

Mine was four chrystal whisky glasses, OH bought them for me - I don't and never have liked whisky - but he does, so who was that present really for? Kath
