I have no unwanted presents to be honest!

I dont think I have had any unwanted ones for years now. :smt009

I feel quite inadequate.

Its been the same for me before this year, maybe my tastes have become a bit more diverse, especially when we go to a fair bit of effort to get others something different every year. :smt090

Unwanted presents make good raffle prizes - there's usually someone out there who wants them!

I bought my hubby a new mobile phone for his xmas...he put it on ebay two days later ..sold it...and is buying some kind of drill with the dosh !!! If id known he would do that i woulda bought a mobile phone id like and kept it !!. Didnt bother me at all coz i actually thought when i bought it he might say "i dont need a new mobile" although the one he has is an antique brick..but he hardly uses it..i just thought new gadget and all that..he might actually carry it with him......but ..hey he did ...all the way through to the computer room to put it on Ebay :smt081
