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.

garage sale queenMy nana is vaguely crazy, and spends all her money on the races and furs, and so has none left to spend on presents. Instead, she would go to garage sales, buy random second hand toys and clothes, put them in clear plastic bags, and then sellotape on a price tag which she had pilfered from something she actually had bought new. I was always impressed with her attempts at sneakiness until the year she bought us all second hand underwear. Then I was just grossed out.
