The “what did you get” thread
 
Been years since I started one of these threads:D

Hundreds of smellies
Tommy Hilfiger aftershave
Inviticus aftershave
501s
M3 car mats
Pitbull Gold head shaver
White Converse
Loads of protein bars
Manscape 4.0 set
4kg tub of protein
Calvin Klein shirts
Replica of Obi Wan’s light sabre handle on a plinth
And the best of all, “working” replica of Mace Windu’s sabre complete with light up shaft and sound effects

Been truly spoilt by the Mrs this year.

I'm not going to go through the usual socks, slippers, smellies routine, but I will admit to getting a Bonsai Tree kit . . 4 pots, 4 different seeds, basic instructions.

I'm almost 68, according to the instructions the 'trees' (if they germinate and grow) will be ready for some of the clever 'bonsai' treatment in about 5 growing seasons.


:erm: :Yikes: :D

I can't wait :LOL:

What presents ?

My daughter has been diabetic since she was 11 months old, there is nothing she must not (or cannot) have.

Didn’t buy gifts for each other as there’a nothing we want.

Had a lovely meal, drank far too much Châteauneuf du Pape & Ron Zacapa

I have been diabetic for 20 years. Currently there are no foods I have to avoid. I just adjust my insulin to account for the extra sugars/carbs.

I am well aware. I even let them know about my eye surgeries due to diabetic retinopathy. I'm just lucky though as I just meet the legal minimum for being allowed to drive still.
