Your favourite present? (mine is so tasteful)
« on: December 26, 2005, 21:54:20 »
Weeeellll....it had to be done, didn't it?  And if it pushes those other stupid threads off this page then it can only be a good thing.

My most favourite and tasteful present of 2005 was from my mum and sister; a sexy black over the shoulder boulder holder!  Seriously, that's what it's called.  Photos have been taken, now it's just a matter of whether I'm brave enough to put one of them on here! Hehehehehe.

I also at long last got a 96 frame memory card for my digital camera that means that I can now take small length video footage. ;D

Well I have only had tiny presents, nothing to brag about, but they have been off my family, so they are all appreciated.

Can't really say fav one. Each present from my kids and grandchildren whether they be big or small are precious to me but I did say Brilliant when amongst Lorna's many gifts there is a DVD of  Beaches also a CD of Barry White. I am so lucky.

Just like to mention unusual one (only present to do with gardening). It is called Toiletries and plant pot. It consists of a rather nice little pot,(ceramic), hand cream  mini spade,mini fork,soap,nail brush,flannel .  Couldn't make it all out when I first looked at it. Thought the rake might be a new fangled comb.. ::)Going to decide what to sow in it.

If I may speak for the gentlemen on this forum, our favourite present may still be to come....  :o :o :)

Debbie and I just bought ourselves a digi camera at last - a Pentax Optio 60.  It had to be a named camera manufacturer due to me fancying myself a bit as a photographer - it's all in the lens you know  ;D

Other than that may faves were walking trousers, a small plastic greenhouse, gardening gloves, seeds, a Jerry Garcia tie (collection 8) and a book on Peak District walking.

I have had so much in my keyboard (and got through so many) over the years that I thought it was worth investing in a sealed keyboard.  Now when I spill my beer in my keyboard, I can just pour it back into my class - yum. ;D
