OFFICIAL Christmas Presents Thread

[Benny Seagull]

between everyone on here us lads can get some serious brainstorming done which means less thought, less time, more drinking in the pub. and by the 25th, we'd have some good ideas too.

so far i'm trying to get a family photo done for most of my family.
then there's always cd's an chocolates etc but maybe something different this year!! i need help! what has worked for you guys in the past which is available in any half decent town center?

 

[Raphael Meade]

i'm gonna get the old man a dvd player. you can pick em up a lot cheaper than a year or so back and its time he joined the new age of technology.

 

[Sonic]

Why not be totally original? A couple of years ago, I bought a mate of mine a session of colonic irrigation as a joke. He put it off for ages. but when he finally went for it, he loved it. Very healthy apparently.

PM me if you want the details. £55 last time I checked. The only registered colonic therapist in Brighton.

If the loved one you buy it for doesn't like it, they can shove it up their arse!!

 

[Dover]

Dvd for the folks, as a joint present. Then vouchers. Mum will probally want Fianl Fantasy what ever no it is now, for her PS2. The OB, I'm thinking something to drive Mum nuts, like a Satus Quo album.

 

[Turkey]

A ticket for the game at Walsall on the 28th.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

I suppose a weekend in Walsall is quite an exciting prospect for someone who lives in Reading. Most residents of Sussex By The Sea would find it fairly disappointing but, hey, we shouldn't be sniffy about other folk wanting to broaden their horizons.

[The Great Cornholio]

Me and my sister had one of those hologram's done in Churchill Square. They take your picture and turn you into a hologram! All clever stuff.

I have four step kids this year and they all have birthdays between 28/11 - 29/12 (eldest step daughter is on the same day as me) as well. Thus far I have got two Birthday presents covered and one Christmas present.

Luckily I have got Mrs BHA sorted !

 

[tinx]

I'm going to www.play.com for every present I am buying this year except the mrs who I'm tkaing shopping in the january sales.

 

[Kenhead]

Still not sure what i'm going to be getting people yet, have got a few of them pound shop dvd's though for a couple of mates as a joke!!

Oh how I love to read your posts Lord Bracknell! Truly a legend.

Wot? Like Rimmer?

(PS. Any "NSC Legend" currently unsure about Christmas presents could consider a desperate need for additional Nikon products)

 

[Yorkie]

For my Dad, some olive oil, and balsamic vinegar.
For my Mum, a Pair of decent Ski gloves
For my Sister, a ticket for the game at Walsall on the 28th.
for my Girlfriend?

Any ideas?

(P.s, Not sex related, her mum wouldn't appreciate it )

Silver chain or bracelet (silver isn't that pricey and nicer than gold)

For those who are laughing at Ali buying his sister a Reading ticket, his sister is a bigger fan of Reading than he.
