Nothing spectacular, it's a crystal paper weight, but I have to say it is one of the nicest I have seen. :)

Perhaps that's just me being sad though. :)

Heh Heh, looks like it from the Gif Net1. :D


Just as an afterthought though, anyone else who has interesting gift ideas, why not post them in this thread.

I'm sure that there are loads of members desperately trying to think up original present ideas. :)

The Best present a loved one could give me......is to tell me that Coronation Street is about to broadcast its last ever episode!.........and all the loser's that try to act in it will never work in TV again!........... waverider

Very good Waverider, but unfortunately the site owner says
Manhole Covers of the World
I do not sell manhole covers!

Damnation, really wanted one. :)

You guys crack me up. If I would to buy any of those thoughtful gift items for my Mrs she would go off on one and never speak to me again.

She said to me yesterday what would make me really happy for Chrismas is a kitten and I said we allready have a f***ing cat that has a mind of its own and shits all over the f****ing house. I think this Christmas you may have to be a little unhappy and live with the dressing gown and slipppers..


Woman....

Regards

If you are still stuck early January with the dish, I may well take you up on the offer as I have a few days holiday to get shot of

Let me know (not sure how many tools I can bring over on the plane)
