Ampersound Posted 19 November, 2011 Share Posted 19 November, 2011 Quite a few years ago my nan gave me a £1 torch from Veals for my 18th birthday. Bless her soul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dune Posted 19 November, 2011 Author Share Posted 19 November, 2011 When I was 15 or 16 an auntie bought me a sweatshirt with Amazon Adventurer written on it in big plasticky letters. That said the most boring present has to be a razor gift set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitey Grandad Posted 19 November, 2011 Share Posted 19 November, 2011 My wife's aunt always used to give me sugared almonds for Christmas and I, of course, feigned delight. Many years later my son came back from holiday and presented me with a box of them because he thought really liked them. Sometimes you have to suffer to be nice.

Jillyanne Posted 19 November, 2011 Share Posted 19 November, 2011 My Nan, rip, used to send us Easter Eggs and Advent Calendars, the eggs would be smashed to bits when they arrived and the chocs in the advent calendar had all dropped to the bottom! Damn you Isle of Wight post!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tpbury Posted 20 November, 2011 Share Posted 20 November, 2011 Didn't Blue Nun undergo a cultural make-over and at least move out of the 'naff' category. This in line with the increasing popularity of Riesling in general. Personally speaking, I enjoy Riesling much more than Chardonnay, so I feel Blue Nun's honour should be defended!
