My Christmas NightmareThe bringing together of one's family and friends over the holiday period is never quite as fun as it is supposed to be: this year, my mum and dad will be in the same room for the first time in 28 months. It should prove interesting.
Tell us about the nightmares you've had over christmas.

Leather JacketSort of a Christmas nightmare fashion disaster. About 15 years ago my dad was working in London (we lived in Glasgow at the time). There was a big wholesale warehouse where they sold leather jackets on the cheap. My dad came back with leather jackets for the whole family for christmas. Mine was one of those with a bit of leather, a bit of suede, some knitted sections with snowflake patterns and *way* too many zips. It was horrendous. I never wore it past trying it on after I unwrapped it. I still shudder when I think about it sitting in my cupboard for about 2 years before my mum started to wear it to walk the dog in the mornings. Possibly the worst jacket in the world. Apparently, they're still considered high fashion in Afghanistan.
