    Hi

    My workplace is doing a Secret Santa gift exchange for the Chrimbo bash in a couple of weeks I have drawn a colleague who is in his fifties my it's a low budget lark (only a 10er max spend). So any ideas? He works outdoors, smokes and loves a cuppa! With that in mind I like this (hell I might get one for myself!)

    Sounds like a bit of very suitable nonsense! Probably won't work/ be more trouble than it is worth, but that's not the point :D .

    Another possibility (and this would chime in with recent late for work activity!)

    Perfect, stop overthinking it.

    No, that's getting kind of family/personal, not so appropriate.

    The last Secret Santa prezzie I bought was also a mug, but in traditional red and white Christmas colours. I filled it with goodies, sachets of hot chocolate, tea bags, but later thought of other ideas i.e. a pair of those funny Christmas socks except I didn't know if I was giving it to a male or female. Another idea I had was to fill it with marshmallows and adding a label 'Build your own snowman'. Or how about filling it with Maltesers and labelling it 'Reindeer Poo'! Don't forget to cover with clingfilm of course. :)
