Awkward Christmas Present.

Recommended Posts

As it has been Christmas Day for over 8 hours here I have just opened some presents

but now I need advice from you good folks.

 

When she was in the UK earlier this year my wife visited some old friends of hers.

I have never met them but they have very kindly sent me a Christmas present -

all good SO FAR.

However when opening said pressie I found a wallet, which I do really need, snag is

the wallet has Portsmouth FC stamped on it as my wife forgot to say I love Saints

and they just assumed I supported PFC as we used to live in Gosport ARRGGHH.

 

Now 1. Do I use it and cover up the PFC bit with red tape ?

 

2. Can I trust it with my money or will the money just disappear into a black

hole like what happens at PFC ?

 

3. Shall I throw it away ?

 

4. Shall I keep it unused so it becomes a collectors item when they are liquidated ?

 

I have of course washed my hands before using this keyboard but I will

be unable to wash my hands after every use of this wallet IF I keep it of course.

In the old days when I use dto collect stamps I steamed them off with a kettle - could you not do this with the Poopey stamp?

There is a way out of this

 

Did it come with any money inside it ?

 

If not send it back to the person who gave it to you saying it is very bad luck to accept an empty wallet as it will always be empty but they could still use it.

 

If it did have money in it remove the money as is standard PFC practice and lose the wallet in the pub accidently on purpose.
