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.

I stayed for christmas at my aunts/uncle's house.I hadn't met her parents before so it was tricky getting a present, but I gave it some thought and got them some v.posh chocs.
They gave me a packet of skin-colour pop socks (guys, that's v.v.v.v.short stockings to you).
Unfortunately, upon being asked if I wore such things (I didn't), I did that thing where you just say "no" when you mean "no don't worry about that, it's fine" - was the second best deadly hush I've created (the best was when I intimated to sometime friends, dead pan, that my boyfriend was my half-brother, heh suckers).
