  1. What do you do / buy

    its all a load of tosh in my mind,
    I don't like giving carp to people that don't need it..
    and don't enjoy receiving tat

    tbh
    if I need something I probably have it ...:confused:

  2. Yep, agree.
     
  3. Don't buy anyone a pressie. Then you avoid getting tat back.

    I get something for Ms.T, something for The Eldest Unmarried and something for the parents in law.
    Usually a piece of antique jewellery for Ms.T, books and cash for The Eldest Unmarried and something alcoholic for the aged ones.
     
  5. I think this is going to be implemented next year,
    with a few ££ given to a local charity instead

    im sick of xmas commercialism.....:rolleyes:

    I only get a spare tyre over Christmas
     
  8. Yep. I absolutely hate all the commercial nonsense of present giving. People ask me what I want and when I genuinely say nothing, they don’t listen to me and just ignore it and put themselves through the hell and expense of shopping when I’ve told people I just want them to sponsor me a guide dog.

    Christmas is a time for giving and I’d really like them to give someone the gift of a dog. That would mean more to me than some socks.

    the best bit about Xmas is seeing my family, eating too much and playing silly games. Receiving presents is way down the list.

  13. Have a heart, Baz. If you had to live in Dunstable, you’d be peed-off as well.

    No. It's a "fun" present and is only going to sit under the boot floor anyway. It's actually in very good condition. He has other "proper" presents too
