This fake smile is hurting my face.

    What were the best/worst Christmas presents you ever received?

    I think that the best prezzie I ever got was a Hillman Imp from my Dad when I was 15.

    The worst present I ever got was a 'Halo James - Don't Blame it on The Sunshine' single from my Grandma, when I'd asked for 'anything by James'.

    I seem to recall a socks & underwear double-whammy from my aunts that year as well. I practically needed novocaine to relieve the agony my fake smile was inflicting on my cheek muscles!:D :D:D:D:D (ouch)

    When I was about 13, my Uncle gave me a bright pink polaroid photo album for Christmas. I didn't even have one single picture to put in it. It was the hardest fake smile ever! He gave my 18-year old sister a book about dried flowers!
    This year I'm praying for something more useful, like a doorstop! :)

    best prezzie, hmm hard to think about it, but since i have that electronic football game me and my brother got in my mind i would have to say that for the moment...

    unluckily that fell to its death after i stamped on it after me brother beating me and taunting me if i remember right :p

    worst prezzie, i always hate getting clothes that you will never wear and then having to act grateful for them, socks and pants i can handly as ill actually wear them (Well apart from the y-fronts that my grannie felt the need to inflict on me, suffice to say they sat in a drawer for 2 years before being binned :rolleyes:
