I dont know whether to laugh or cry...

He put a lot of thought into it. He spend a lot of money (for us) on it but its just such a bizarre present I dont quite know what to say...

It's a spirit hood

I tried it on and I look like I should be in a stage production of 'cats'

Confused

LOL!

Clearly you don't see yourself as "... wild at heart! ... adventurous,... frisky, ... sexy and bold"

madammecholet · 03/02/2011 17:02

oh dear.. cut the ears off and you could possibly wear it...on a dark night?

coldtits · 03/02/2011 17:03

MAAAAH HA HA HA

FiveFeetTwo · 03/02/2011 17:03

Oh dear. That's awful.

Does he want you to wear it in the bedroom?

TragicallyHip · 03/02/2011 17:04

OMG just realised it comes with gloves..

What will I do?!?!?!

I told DH that 'I'm not quite sure if its me' [diplomatic] and he's said to have a think about it and then see how I feel, so I am 'thinking about it' Confused

Am worried that if I do own up and say I dont like it and try to sell it to get his money back that no bugger will buy it over here (he bought it in America where they have different 'tastes'!)

eek!

What's the alternative though?

If you say you like it you'll end up having to wear it every day it's cold.

Just pray for a roasting hot spring and summer...

moragbellingham · 03/02/2011 17:08

I know I shouldn't, but I like it!
I'm not so sure about the "nasty rabbit" one though.

TragicallyHip · 03/02/2011 17:08

You could get him one here

Grin
CupcakesHay · 03/02/2011 17:09

Ha ha - I LOVE it. Oh, your poor DH. Are you going to wear it out to make him feel better? It'll be great for a fancy dress party... Smile

TheSleepFairy · 03/02/2011 17:09

Bwaaah - it's the thought that counts though, right???

FiveFeetTwo · 03/02/2011 17:09

Lol Tragically!

Matching hoods - genius!

TragicallyHip · 03/02/2011 17:11

You won't be the only one looking daft Grin
