I know, right? My brother reckoned he got it on the cheap on Amazon and it looks completely legit.

I mean I know it's Christmas and all and it's not about the gifts, (it totally is) but that is two years on the trot I have had absolute shitters.

All thanks to doing a secret Santa to 'make things easier' :dread:

I'd be better buying and wrapping my own gifts. It's either that or finding a new family.

Just opened my stash, received the following:

Jumper
"This is my jolly face" Stormtrooper Christmas t-shirt
Coca-Cola "Holidays are coming" sweatshirt
"I have everything I need for Christmas, I have my German Shepherd" hoody. :dread:

Marvel PJs
Ghost busters Ecto-1 t-shirt
Walking dead t-shirt
4 ladybird books
Horizon Zero Dawn
£20 PSN voucher
Assorted sweets
Wahl 14 in 1 chromium multi groomer
Underwear
Retro mini controller

Got a Switch and Mario

.
Some other little nick nacks and stocking fillers, like food.

I didn't get a switch

I even hinted to everyone to pool their collective present buying funds and get one between them.

It didn't happen

Star Wars Battlefront II Deluxe thingy Edition (PS4)
Aftershave.
Marvel Boxies.
2 pairs of the same Jack Skellington Disney Store slippers.
Boba Fett Lego figure keyring.
3D golden Snitch Harry Potter keyring.
Fancy arse Harry Potter transparent mug with metal emblem/badge from the WB Studios.
Mario + Rabbids Rabbid Peach collectable (GR Secret Santa)
K'Nex Mario Kart 8 Yoshi (GR Secret Santa)
2 Choc Oranges (GR Secret Santa)
Super Play Sens Mini mag (GR Secret Santa)
Official Link/Zelda mug (GR Secret Santa) - Will be using this one in work!
Selection boxes, box of Thorntons vanilla fudge and a bag of chocolate Pretzels.
And an odd giant bottle of Chilli sauce in a glass devils head. Probably my weirdest present to date..

Plus games I'd bought for myself on the run up to Christmas (The Division Gold Edition (PC), Resident Evil 7 Gold Edition (PC), Halo Wars 2 (PC) )

Not bad for an old fart like myself.

I didn’t get a Switch either. Sounds like we have gooseberry fool families.

I did well this year. About £150 in cash overall, clothes, chocolates and some Xbox vouchers.

My lad has a massive haul though, I have never seen so many toys in my life. :shock:

Haha yeah Amelia did well too. Really love all the noisey present the nans insisted on buying to have here and not at theirs.......

I bought my nephew a robotic dog. Honestly, it’s the noisiest damn thing I have ever heard. My brother is seriously unimpressed with me. :lol:

I didn’t know it was that noisy until we put the batteries in. The worst thing is my nephew loved it and so my brother is doomed to hear it constantly for the next few months.

:slol:

Hahaha luckily Amelia isn't too into her battery power noisy toys, there is a phone thing that bleeps but that's about it. She does has a wooden recorder whistle thing which she walks about with tooting like a train but otherwise she is pretty good, mostly likes to flick through her books babbling or getting us to read them

I remember as a youngster my parents bought me a hot wheels multistory car park thing, that had been converted into a race track. Every time the toy car went past the garage door (finish line) it made a loud car noise. And when I was playing with it, the car went past that line about 4 or 5 times a minute.

I remember coming back from school in the January, and it had been moved from the dining room table to the top and back of a cupboard as it was 'messy' :lol:
