Body lotion - who really uses the stuff. I never have and have annual clear outs of unused suff from gifts that go in the bin.

Ditto - bath oil - horrible slimy stuff.

Novelty bottle openers.

Velvet party dresses for my dds which they wear on x mas day and never again.

Notelets, gardeners dairy (whats the point?), 'arty' jewellrey, novelty mugs, any smellies

Dont want any chocolate, body lotion or alcohol. What I really would like though (dont ask me why) is one of those bangles that are made out of forks.

Anything that needs dusting.

anything AT ALL from my ex

he never bought me presents when we were together. i find it unsettling he's started since- especially as my birthday present this year was a diamond necklace (it WAS a very small diamond i should add, more a chip really, but still totally unwanted - how ungrateful am i)

also....cute ornaments - particularly glass ones, scarves, socks (i either wear tights/stockings or nothing), keyrings, fridge magnets - particularly those with 'poems' on, chocolate - i eat enough already & really dont need any encouragement!candles, and so on.............

Ditto all of the above. Thankfully DH has learnt his lesson after buying me Nigella duck egg blue mixing bowls 6 years ago . He now knows if its duck egg blue it has to have the words Tiffany & Co on the top too

Don't want an oven glove - this means you DP [Hard stare emotion]

Any "novelty" crap this include Christmas tree socks/earings/wooly jumpers especially the ones so stiff you can't actually bend your arms when wearing one.
Cheap make up where you get a tin full of absolutely everything so you know it was cheap.
Cheap Yardley perfume(buy me a small bottle of the one I like please).
christmas cake (I don't eat it and never will)

But the main thing I don't want is to have to please the in laws at the expense of my sanity.

Does a bangle made of forks constitute 'arty' jewellery I wonder? If I get one Rainbowchaser I'll fwd it to you Maybe we could set up a pressie swap shop?

Repeat after me: hugh = boys name
huge = very large.

Way too early...

See, I would quite fancy some Ferrero Rocher.

ontheup I was going to suggest a MN present swap! Imagine all that body lotion, flying around the country
