Re: What did you get?
my most unexpected (and unwanted) "gift" is a kitten calendar. If anyone wants it, please just pm me... it could be good for target practice.
Second on my Top 5 is a royal jelly assortment from Boots (price tag left on) and a completely random silk scarf with a bold floral print, but they're from my grandma, and grandmas just have to give completely loopy presents.

Re: What did you get?
well, yes, reading through the rest of everyone's star-studded gifts, I'm starting to feel the need to tell my gran (and everyone else) to buck their ideas up!
Saying that, my best ever Grandma Present was from my late-Grandma... I must have been about 20 at the time, and she gave me a red patent child's handbag filled with an assortment of large beads and a DIY earring kit. I think I still have it somewhere, bless her!

I got screwed by an employment agency, so I was given the opportunity to go an look for a new job! Merry Christmas! Oh, and before anyone says anything, no, I'm not worried, I know it will all be fine and I am following my own advice as it's what I truly believe in.
Happy new year all!
