Wrapping presents: are you good at it or not?

[Bozza]

I hate wrapping presents - it's hell on earth. I might be slightly better than I used to be since learning that too much paper makes it difficult. Lesson: Don't be so bloody lazy and use the scissors to get paper of the required size and no more.

But because I'm no good at it, I am very definitely shit at it. Hows about you?

Shit hot.

I even provide a service.

And I've got a black belt in origami.

Super dooper with bows on top!

I'm useless so I don't wrap presents I just give them to people as they are.

I'm going to study this as I only got through about a third of mine the other night.

I am 'good' at it in a man way, but all things are relative.

The missus takes it to a WHOLE new level. We're talking perfectly wrapped gift, then wrapped a second time in gauze [or something], with SPRINKLY THINGS between the two layers, then tied with a ribbon. She is the DON of present wrapping.

I'm a bit rubbish too. I'm just about to make a hash of wrapping some chocs for mini tanks teacher, but I suppose it will look as if an 11 year old has done it and not me!

I like to think I'm pretty good at it, although the mrs tells me I'm shit.

I'm Rubbish, everyone thinks they're getting a bottle of something....

 

[Drumstick]

I'm ok as long as its a nice even flat boxy shape. Any curves or sticky-out bits and I'm in trouble.

Bought the missus some perfume in Debenhams the other day, and the bint behind the counter done a wrap-TASTIC job on it, with ribbons and bows, the lot. At no extra cost. I could have KISSED her.

But the security guard seemed to have his eye on me.

Apparently it's as simple as: ½(d + 2h + w)² = 2(w + h)²

Is it a DVD?

Seriously - my god - that is truly awful. I feel like some sort of expert relative to you fella. Still, chin up, eh.

Is it a HAGGIS?

Drumstick, you might as well bung the gift in a king-sized bag of Doritos and just tape the end up.
