Worst gift you've ever received?

I'll start the ball rolling with:
1. Acupuncture insoles that crippled me
2. A wincyette nightie
3. A coal scuttle

It seems to be the men who are the main culprits for naff presents!

A wooden Moose from canada to put on my wall!

This type of things should be outlawed! honestly!

You've all made me laugh so much!

My worst present was the ugliest, hand-painted china owl one could ever clap eyes on. For some very strange reason my Aunt gave me a Russian doll for my birthday last year....I was 43!!!

I would happily have swapped them for your unwanted wincyette nighties. They may not be very attractive, but at least they are warm and cosy on a cold winter's night.

Actually I've just remembered the hand knitted gloves that my Nan made for me. She gave me three (?) and they were all different sizes! That's definitely got to be the worst present I have ever had.

Ahh... bless our family members who know not what they do! They do brighten up our lives with their odd behaviour don't they?
