My daughter.........

Well here is a good place... My son wanted a pair of work shorts for xmas. Macho shorts with extra pockets and loops for your spanners.
I was sorely tempted by a work kilt. This kind of thing:

I went to a show and a member of the technical crew, wearing one, climbed a ladder, right next to me. (Oooo, matron, I didn't know where to look!)
But I don't think that a/ he is yet quite that comfortable with his sexuality or b/ the Australian plumbing community is ready...
Mind you, it would be a huge success with some of his customers methinks...

Ah, but you don't know DD gracesmum.

So what is she likely to "surprise" you with jingl? Given that the pop-up George Clooney has my name on his gift tag - can you say gift tag on GN?

Given the tone of this thread gracesmum the notion of a "pop up George Clooney" conjured up a very ungrandmotherlike image in my brain.
Is that what you meant?????!!!!!

jessm - to the pure all things are pure!

Wishing my mum was as thoughtful as jingl then I would not be in the position I am now,peeing myself whilst I read this thread !!!

jingle I am rolling on the floor after reading this thread, only you could buy something like this.

You have been very thoughtful in your choice of gift!!!

It all depends on the relationship you have with your DD but not on Christmas Day, but you could also wrap some Tena Ladies for use before it has done its job, then she wont be confused as to the reason for purchased them.

Am I the only innocent little flower on this website?!!!

Well, so long as she doesn't tell you where to put your present.....

I've just come home from watching a very funny film................but this thread is definitely funnier.............oh ladies

Well, it's certainly not my fault, jogging! [sniff]

I wonder who STARTED lowering the tone?!! (product description indeed!)

Goodnight jingl,you are so funny.Dare we ask what little Christmas surprises you have for the men in your family!

Sorry jingl I was just giving your post the full attention it deserved - and you so kindly provided the link .........sleep tight ......whoops.....no pun intended........ goodnight.........

What a lovely way to end the day, laughing so much I'm crying! Must calm down before bed.... Night all xx

I just knew, when I looked this morning, that this thread was going to last until bedtime. Now I am going to keep sniggering while I am supposed to be going to sleep.
jingl you don't half know how to make us laugh

Lovely idea but agree better not to give as a Christmas present

gracesmum and I could start that off by telling you that my one and only gift from dear husband one year was a washing up bowl!! I DID speak to him again, but not for a long time!!

Another strange Christmas present crossed my bows when DGD was still in the womb. Some of her friends and relatives so excited about this first grandchild they bought presents for her. Me, I think you have to make it through the birth canal before you get presents [shrug]. So a few soft toys etc turned up, but one friend of her mums sent her a pink bikini. I don't think it was only me that thought buying a bikini for a foetus was a tad strange...

JessM what was that person thinking????????

JessM that's made me laugh all over again.

JessM ...well, what do I say All looks a wee bit like an instrument of torture...what with weights an' all. I had to laugh...and realised that I may need to invest in the contraption. Maybe too late for the likes of me. Feel sure it would get stuck and I wouldn't be able to sit down thereafter!!! OR keep dropping down and clonking on the floor
jingle what to give a man who leaks a little when he sneezes/laughs/jumps up and down on the spot
syberia I'd have given Mr S a pair of Marigolds and left him with Xmas dishes

glamma...an awful lot of GN's appear to be peeing their pants...me included!

Well, I may be strange (don't youse dare! !). I love my washing up bowl. It is rather a posch one, made of rubber not plastic.

just noticed my spelling of posh. I think I'll leave it!

bagitha only the best is good enough for you
