Shoddy Presents
I 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.

Girl's World
As with Sausagegirl (Below), I also wanted a Girl's World more than anything.
Come Xmas morning I excitedly rip off the wrapping paper to reveal..... a polystyrene head with a wig on it!
My Mum's reasoning? She had been *everywhere* and couldn't find one, so rather than have me disappointed, she improvised. Bless her really.... Actually, as we were living in Berlin at the time, she may well have been telling the truth.
