An honest answer,
and therefore boring. Last Christmas I got my grandparents one of those calendars that online photo companies print. You know the sort - upload a couple of pictures for each month and your granny has the delight of seeing your oversmiling face grinning down at her while she eats her catfood in front of the superser. They loved it. Thought it was the best thing EVAR. You'd have thought I'd invented the concept of time itself.*

This year I'm either getting them another calendar or more catfood.

*NB: it wasn't one of those naked calendars, just regular photos, not from my private Internet stock library. No breasts.

Steady on, I'm waiting for confirmation or otherwise of breasts before I expend that many capitals

They are terrific, aren't they?

surely
the catfood will only be for Catface - unless you plan on leaving him there while you go off skiing or something over the holidays...

he's the skiier, not me.
Captain V and I have set a £20 limit on each other's presents. Catfood may actually be an option.
I'm hoping he's got me a hamster. I don't mind if he doesn't wrap it.

it would be a disappointment
if he did.

Imagine going downstairs a finding your present had opened itself

I got the missus a hamster last year.
He's ace. And has enormous knackers.

Hamsters
Bollocks are legendary. On a body size ratio they are quite unreal
