Default Whats your most pointless present then???

Mine is a CD cleaner thing to repair scratches. If my discs get bad I just re burn them.

Either that or a box of Celebrations. I dont eat sweets so they will probably sit for months then Ill bin them and use the tin for nuts and bolts in the garage

We have family coming this afternoon so something else may be recieved thats as bad.

Anyone got anything really pointless???

amazingly not much pointless tat this year ,

two t shirts that have no fucking chance of fitting , two bottles of after shave ( even though i have loads and genrally dont wear it )


although the highlight has to be , my pimp new coat and clothes that do fit, my haynes mk 3 escort cup , some top gear tat ,



best of all , my" i owe you one rst carbon roofskin for the project" off the missus ,


have to order it in january , as she didnt know the suppliers contact details,

beef
