What did you GIVE this Christmas
 

You lot are always quick to boast about how much stuff you got this Christmas.
But Christmas is a time for giving and I want to see how many cheap bastards there are on this forum.

Here's my list...

Dad - Box set of 100 Westerns plus a load of other westerns.

Mum - Rise of The Planet Of The Apes, Conan The Barbarian, Cowboys vs Aliens , The Dead Blu-ray.
Bunch of low budget horror movies
The Onedin Line series 1-5
Bottle of Bacardi

Sister - Bottle of Baileys
Bit of money when she finally decides what she wants.

Sister's Husband - Doctor Who T Shirt

Nephew - Scalextric set
Table football set
Full England football kit
Fucking massive chocolate coin (My sister is going to throw a fit when she sees it :laughing: )
Bunch of other stuff my mother has bought that I probably owe her money for.

Niece - Musical Elephant
Activity Lion
Another bunch of other stuff my mother has bought that I probably owe her money for.

Me - Nothing, until I get my Christmas bonus :(

This is my kind of thread.

My mother received from me:

• Harry Potter 7 pt. 1&2
• The Big Bang Theory S03
• House S07

• Bottle of Wiser's whiskey
• Three bars of goat milk soap
• A book she already had a signed copy of (goddammit).
• Two boxes of brandy beans
• A charcoal portrait of Jarvis Cocker I drew earlier in the year.

When she saw the last one, she went "FUCKING HELL!" Guess I did good then!
