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.

MrsJohnBarrowman · 11/11/2008 22:21

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

Forero Rochet.

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

lunamoon2 · 11/11/2008 23:38

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
