I got bought a Slendertone exercise belt one Xmas totally out of the blue. Very upsetting. And last year an aunt bought me a silver plated tooth pick holder with tooth picks. Some people have no idea!!

A picture of me and DH on our wedding day. I have to say it was a very very good picture of him and the worst of me! I'm not that bad looking but my eyes look cross-eyed on it and I have this awful sideways tilted mouth that looks like I'm dribbling!!! Urgh!!!

I guess HIS mum just looked at her son on that photo ...

It hasn't been put up and is currently stuffed in a draw

It still makes me shudder and wonder why I haven't thrown it away!

An exp gave me a ball of shit wool for my last birthday, and a bag of haribo sweets. He wasn't short of money so wasn't that. Even if he had have been and had made something I would have been overjoyed! He'd obviously forgotten and set out to find something on his way through town from work.
Gutted....I bought him a new phone for christmas two months before, quite inexpensive but he wanted/needed a new one. I bought him a multipack of tic tacs for his birthday (just after mine) though so got my revenge Grin

I'd love a Slendertone belt OP! Much easier than sit-ups

Probably any gift I've from paternal uncle and aunt would be a contestant for the "worst present" title.

My friend once gave me a trinket box with a dodgy hinge for my birthday once

Avon. I was so unimpressed! But she seemed to buy some for all the women in the family that year so it took the sting out a bit, think she'd gone a bit crazy with the catalogue, but honestly who does that???

I was given a clam baker once. I don't eat shellfish... Oh and I was 15 at the time!
