I asked for a book and some chocolate. Literally, that’s all I want. I’m working Christmas Day, I want to come home, have a bath, start my book and have chocolate and peppermint tea in bed.

I recently found out that you can buy a streaming service for the Royal Opera House, which gives you unlimited access to the archive and about four live streamed performances a year, all for about £100 - that's what I would like!

A pure wool jumper with a cable down the arms (where from though?), and a new lipstick.

A ring doorbell
An oodie type thing, don't mind if it's an official one
Posh biscuits
A cool Disney sweatshirt (we're going to Disneyland in January)
Silver earrings

Honestly though, if I had to choose between a Christmas dinner and presents, I'd take the dinner. It's just my favourite.

Dashi miso

I'm on a mission to try and make dashi like the favourite restaurant I can no longer afford. Just learned about this and am hoping it is the culinary equivalent of a cheat code

A projector for our garden room (going halves with husband)

Socks

Any food or wine based gifts

A reduction in our energy bills

Fireworks to be outlawed (requested by our rabbits)

What price range ?

dark chocolate lime cremes from the small chocolate shop in our town

a cosy crime book

nice stationary (pens, note books etc) - I have never out grown the joy of a new pencil case

a hanging washbag

recycled cashmere wrist warmers from turtle doves

toasty socks for in boots on dog walks

all the dog owner crap - I love a personalised mug/water bottle/cushion !

more expensive- cashmere jumper (crew or roll neck in one of the basics colours of my wardrobe)

emerald or sapphire stud earrings

tan knee high boots with a chunky heel that’s not too high

a big wrap scarf

peter Kay or Pulp tickets - or tickets to a west end show and childcare sorted.

a mini wallet / card holder that has a zippy bit for some coins but not a big purse (can fit in my jacket pocket when I’m not taking a bag) - mulberry have a nice one

a tote the size and shape as the neverful that’s not the neverful.

the perfect rucksack (this doesn’t exist).
