Shoddy PresentsI have an aunt who for many years would send me the same christmas present every year. A Biro. Each year I wrote inevitable "Thankyou so much for the Biro. I am using it to write this letter" letter, each year a new one arrived.
Tell us all about the rubbish that has been foisted upon you over the years.

good and bad i supposeabout ten years ago my dad had the brainwave of having a large picture taken of me, brother and sister for mum's xmas present. she opened it on xmas morning and was absolutely made up, we were staying in a hotel as we often did for xmas and she proceeded to show every single fucking person the picture, we were all in our teens so you can imagine the shame of having lots of old grannies swooning over the three of us.
anyway, mum was not the only person so taken with the picture, the photographer was also pretty fucking pleased with himself wasnt he, oh yes. he decided to display it in the window of his fucking shop didnt he, his shop that nearly half our fucking high school walked past every fucking morning. i cannot begin to tell of the utter shame me and my brother endured. despite our protests, mum and dad, thinking it was hillarious refused to call the shop and ask him to remove it.
i suppose it does mean we are all good looking!
