What do your birthday presents say about you?

Oh for slower fingers or an edit button....

Fully blinged out.....

Top Gun

I must be a flower!

Cath Kidston bags, glasses case, passport holder.
Orla Kiely mugs, towels, umbrella. Sweet smelling L'Occitane toiletries.

Or like you, NanaandGrampy a child at heart!

Tickets to West End musicals like Matilda, Aladdin or the Lion King.

Oooh I'm loving your ticket choice :-) Lillie

I am surprised haw many presents people receive. Who do they all come from? I am given presents by DH, both children and both grandchildren and that is all. I do not exchange presents with any one outside immediate family.

I got flowers, plants, earrings, perfume, mascara and lipstick, a t shirt, from the kids, a meal out at a posh restaurant and ( promised) money towards my upcoming dental bill from OH. I always treat myself though and I bought myself some lovely lingerie and a handbag.

And why not Suzied ....after all...it's because we're worth it.

It was a special birthday Monica, and I think because people came they bought gifts. We are all far flung so it's a rare thing and we don't send gifts generally . I was just lucky ???

My last big birthday H and I went to Switzerland all arranged and booked by me
I really can't remember what this years birthday brought. Well it was 8 mths ago !

Last year DH and I practically shared significant birthdays - 5 years and 4 days apart. Our presents were almost exclusively meals out and booze. Whatever our friends were trying to tell us, they were probably right

My presents probably say I am a self indulgent oldie who needs their teeth done (correct).

Ummm.......
No presents other than £25 from my parents?

I received the smaller presents from the dogs monica! Don't ask!
The theatre tickets were from the grandchildren. Other presents from DH and the offspring.

Token gifts from C and GC who presently are not in circumstances to do anything else. Nothing from H who doesn't understand and an extravagant one from me to me.

Sorry I forgot to say what it says about me but frankly I just don't know.

Ann it says you deserve a lot more !! And that you're a sensible woman and treated yourself because even if no one else can or even remembers you're worth celebrating x

Well said nandg!

My last birthday included a silver heart shaped necklace, a stuffed dog, theatre tickets, a meal out and other stuff I have forgotten but my birthday was in january. Oh, I might have had a colour consultation. No idea what that says about me!

I said years ago that I did not want birthday or C*******s presents. I really do not need anything and if I feel I do I go out and buy it.

Same as Charleygirl here, the girls always bring flowers or plants because they say 'we can't get you nothing Mum' but I'm happy as long as they remember or send a card and visit. OH and I usually treat ourselves to a trip away for our birthdays as they are very close together.
Don't know what that says about me other than I'm easily pleased

A gift in my name to Save the Children's wishlist. But the best gift was my flying lesson. Goodness knows what they'll think of next.

On ordinary birthdays I do like a bit of grandchildren made tat !! :-)

I prefer a card they made to a shop bought one and whatever they found in the pound shop they thought I couldn't live without !!

I think that's why I got a blue light for my scooter lol

So what does that say about me? I expect the unexpected!

Birthdays ?

Yet another (yawn)

gillybob, you really are in a bad mood today aren't you?

Hope tomorrow's better for you
