Probably givenchy organza in 1998. Or the huge bundle of clothes my husband got me one year ,(unfortunately he never keeps anything as a surprise but this time I didn't know what clothes I was getting)

DH arranged for our dining table to be stripped and varnished when I was away just before Christmas. It looked stunning and I had no idea he was getting it done. Sorry if you were hoping for easy present ideas - this probably doesn’t help.

A quad bike when I was a little girl. Mainly because of the memories. My mum and dad had put a sheet over it and put all presents over it and I unwrapped them all and still didn’t realise there was something under the sheet and I remember my nan pulling faces at me going what’s under there then and then I think I realised and squealed with delight. Just lovely warm memories of being a kid and simple times

Wow that sounds fab.

Not after present ideas. Just curious to what people loved.

Mine was a Tiffany necklace I had off dp a few years ago.

Like @Katemax82exdp one year bought me a pile of clothes which were a surprise and so unlike him.

When I was a child about 6 it was my Sindy house. I was in the back room with my brother, and knew mum and dad were in the front room when I'd woken up on the sofa. I went running into see them, before my brother could stop me, and my dad was putting my Sindy house together. The myth of Santa came crashing down- my parents were Santa!
