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.

Granny gets the last laughI'm one of those people who's Dad didn't like his first bunch of kids, so decided to 'do a better job' with a new batch.
As a result of this, I have an annoying 11 yr old 'brother'. Most kids love pressies, but this little sod takes the biscuit for demanding behaviour, selfishness and ungratefulness.
When my Gran arrived for a visit after an 8 hour flight, he immediately started harrassing her for gifts before she'd even got her shoes off or a cup of tea.
With a glint in her eye she promised him she'd got him something 'very special' and went into her luggage looking for it.
He arrived back in the kitchen, his eyes close to brimming over, his face a picture of disappointment holding a bag of airline peanuts.
Hahahahahahahahahaha
Nice one gran!
