Some ideas for Xmas prezzies.

I hope you dont have kids!

Of course not - Im refering to 'peer' group giving - especially the expectations of partners ...

Bit late, I've already finished all my christmas shopping for this year!

So it seems I am not quite alone in opting out of the Prezzie racket - anybody else opted out or even contemplated this ?

Yes. Kids are too old and wife too mean.

Last thing I got was a pair of moccasin slippers in 2006 - still going strong, if slightly pungent.

Fortunately all the chicas (friends and their spouses) have decided that we're not buying pressies for each year, thank flip.


It was fine before - some crappy scented candle or lush cosmetics and you were done. Then they started breeding.

Bah Humbug!

In view of the terrible suffering that has been the lot for most in 2009 (happily not for me) - can we please make CUK a Xmas Free Zone - or should I say MarksandSpendMass FreeZone ?

I stopped this prezzie nonsense some years back - and it is a swindle .... I thin it s fair to say that it seems to be women who drive all this business - it appears their self esteem can only be valued in terms of 'gifts' - thats very sad.

I am getting the missus a photo frame keyring.

so she can look at pictures of the cats flit past whilst sitting in boring meetings

I got the Merc last year. Might go for a pair of matching stuffed bear cubs this year.
