I sometimes make a joke out of how bad a wrapping job I can do. My wife asked for a new measuring jug for Christmas. Which is obviously a crappy Christmas gift... So I got her one and deliberately did a terrible job wrapping it, I even have the handle sticking out unwrapped. It's very obvious what it is before opening and the wrapping job deliberately the shoddiest I could manage. The surprise though is I did actually put a piece of jewelry inside the measuring jug so she will think haha... Shoddy measuring jug gift but get a nice surprise when she unwraps it.
I save several of the small Amazon boxes and the air packs they ship stuff with. I put awkward presents in those boxes and wrap them...
Who’s the gnome for @Chief? Can’t think of a time when I’d ever want a gnome tbh. I know it’s not for me btw.
His Mrs is expecting a pair of Louboutins and Chief’s been down the garden centre for a decorative clay figurine
Have a great Christmas Sisu. Agree about living it through the kid, the best Christmas's are As for the TV, I'll be catching The Midnight Sky on Netflix a little later. Might be worth watching if it's out there as well.
Had to order the ****er on line, they cost a bomb. Anyway, the kids (my daughter and my Mrs) wanted to do Christmas dinner secret Santa this year. Tenner tops, complete secret and try to be original. (it was sixteen quid delivered mind) The gnome is mine to my father in law. My mother got me, which means I won't get anything!
I've never tried it (or heard of it tbh) Is it similar? I always get Roquefort. There's another cheese called Port Salut which is one of my faves.
It's like a Shropshire blue. It's also soft like Roquefort. Just really like it, not as strong as a Stilton. Got some pickled walnuts for with the cheeses, absolute must have addition.
