    ok, need a little help with some suggestions please. i have to give my mum a list of small things that she can pass around to other family members to get me as a pressie, and she also needs a few suggestions herself.
    things around the 50e mark at max, please no stupid suggestions, i'm actually serious!

    ok, i'm female, 20
    i like
    music/movies
    computers/gadgets
    erm, random crazy things...

    ok maybe a list of what i DONT like would be more helpful
    girly stuff (i.e. smelly stuff, soaps perfumes, make-up, all that crap)
    bags/clothes
    err...

    ok thats not helpful either...

    eh, suggest stuff!

    that cool alarm clock in boots that mimics the sunrise .. know the one I'm on about? think it's about the €40 mark..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,584 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    when people ask me what i'd like for christmas i say to them vouchers for tower/clothes shops etc as they giving you a present that'll you'll actually use.

    i remeber last year the shock when one relative ask me what would i like and i said some sort of cd. you can imagine the look on my face when i got westlife unbreakable :O

    suppose it's the thought that counts

    Did you prove it was most breakable?

    A Swisscard.. they're soo soo handy. A friend of mine got me one when I was going away interrailing and it's never left my wallet since!! seriously.. you'd be so surprised how often you'd use it!!! think they're about the twenty euro mark..

    Bill Bailey's new DVD is absolutely fantastic. I recommend it unreservedly!


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 23,361 Mod ✭✭✭✭feylya


    Also, Tommy Tiernan's dvds are a good laugh. ROTK extended edition, Shrek box set....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,909 ✭✭✭✭Wertz


    Eyetoy will provide a lot of cheap laughs at xmas, assuming you have a PS2. Think they're around the 50 mark.

    But don't forget you have it with you when you're going through passanger screening in an airport, or it will be confiscated...

    Happened to a friend of mine, she was seriously pissed off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭Seraphina


    ahh they had that cool tuba thing on some drug paraphenalia(sp?) website recommended for acid and shrooms :D

    anyways thinkgeek already gave me a long list, but most of its more expensive than i should be asking for, i'm already getting a wetsuit for scuba diving.

    damn wetsuit! i want that usb swiss army knife, and the backpack with speakers! and other stuff!

    One of them hates women.

    I think the vet that cut his balls off was a woman.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭Seraphina


    i have three... no more thanks. the man upset the other two... now they hate eachother

    the moral is, men are evil and wreck everything... or something...


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 23,361 Mod ✭✭✭✭feylya


    I'm not evil. I'm lovely :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭Seraphina

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,598 ✭✭✭ferdi


    what is it with spliffs and cats? i have two....cats.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭Seraphina


    i dunno... my mate has three cats we reckon are permanently stoned at this stage. their antics are something else, so amusing to watch :)
    who needs expensive glowing lighty type things when you have cats?


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 23,361 Mod ✭✭✭✭feylya


    I like wireless mouses. And cats. And spliffs.
