Christmas presents; what you want and what you will probably get

[Mich the Tester]

What I wanted last year was one of these.

What I got was a bottle of aftershave with the name of some Japanese homosexual on the bottle. It makes me sneeze so I don't use it.


Hint for Zeity's friends; he wants a Lego Unimog but don't tell him I said so

I have no idea what other people are buying me.

Last year I wanted a new 180L tropical fish tank ( I find them relaxing), I got a remote control helicopter, a chefs blow torch and a backgammon set.

This year I want a 180L tropical fish tank OR the LA Noire game for PS3, I'll most likely get a new electric screwdriver as mine died yesterday when putting up shelves.

You can preempt this by buying a new screwdriver this afternoon thus sealing off that avenue of disappointment (and ensuring you end up with a quality screwdriver )

Perhaps the solution is to buy your other half the present you would like.

I wanted world peace and a box of crystalized fruit.

I got socks.

I don't think she'll appreciate me paying for a blowjob, even if it is for her.

What I want: latest book from George RR Martin

What I'll get: latest book from George RR Martin

Have asked for Amazon vouchers as carting back randon tat from blighty to cloggers will be a pain espacially if you only have hand luggage. Whether I get said amazon vouchers will be interesting as someone will still insist on buying random tat which ends up in the bin or given to charity.
