    I just tried to wrap something simple and rectangular, and ended up making something that wouldn't look out of place in the Tate. But if you're going for the heap-of-**** look, I'm your man.

    I should just say, I'm awesome at presents. Picking them, wrapping them, I'm like a ****ing Santa already at the age of 19.

    A good tip is to give gift vouchers...guaranteed no disappointment for the present reciever and the minimum of wrapping and mess for the present giver.

    I don't like getting vouchers really. It's just not Christmassy.

    We did a house Christmas dinner in my house at Uni, I was in charge of the mash and the pigs in blankets. They were delicious if I do say so myself.

    I would retaliate to your jibe at my sexuality Joe, but Strictly's just started.
