Now that the festive season is fast approaching, it has conjured up a memory of a crappy gift I received from a friend many moons ago. When it was unwrapped (and after saying 'Thanks - you shouldn't have') I had to ask what it actually was. In front of me was a brown circular piece of leather with two leather shoelace pieces woven through it. The large leather circle had no beginning and no end however the stringy bits were loose so as to be tied off.
I was told that it was a belt so I stepped into, pulled it up to my waist and tied it off. I thought it a bit strange as it couldn't be placed through the belt loops. Must be the new trend in fashion I thought to myself.
A few days after wearing my new fashion statement, I went into one of those $2 shops for whatever reason and low and behold - there was a whole bucket full of my 'belt' with a sigh below it marked 'Steering Wheel Cover".

I was presented with a food processor one christmas by a partner who then excitedly raved about how now I'd be able to make smoothies for him! I'd never expressed any interest in having a food processor, can't help but wonder was it a gift for me or for him....we're no longer together

Trying to tell you something??

Once got my wife a six pack of blank video tapes. 7/11 Christmas day.( still happily married).

Ties with cartoon characters on them from my sister in law. After 20 years of marriage, you'd think they would have noticed they have NEVER seen me wear a tie.
