This is a question 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.

I generally do pretty well present-wise
But there was that year my aunt bought me a plant "because I like that sort of thing". It was dead. And last christmas she bought me a cheapo (think 99p stores) pink set of hairbrushes. My sister got the same thing, only green.

My other aunt often buys me rather pretty pieces of gold jewelery, which I guess to most people would be a good present - I hate wearing gold and being as I'm a rather punk-ish student living in jeans and t-shirts never wear them.

But I think overall the crappest present has to be my Valentine's Day gift. I'd only been with my fella just over a month by this point, so didn't want to spend too much and told him to do the same. I spent about a tenner on a really nice AC/DC picture vinyl (he is an AC/DC obsessive but also a poor student so doesn't often buy vinyls) and took him out for a meal. He bought me a data cable for my phone. Nowt else - not even a card. Mr. Romantic.
