My daugther gave me a coffee mug. It was a really good coffee mug until I opened up the package and found it smashed. She was only 3 at the time so I
wont hold it against her. Of course it was my "favorite" gift that year, achem.

Not the worst present I've ever had, not finished the therapy to enable me to talk about that, but last year my sister gave me a new york
smoothie maker. Real appropriate that one, to make matters worse is she asked me at the weekend if I'd used it yet, I couldn't lie and
fessed up immediately, at least it didn't end up on ebay.

A box of three tartan (I think!) hankerchiefs!
Given to me by my girlfriend's grandad! Sweet to give me anything at all I guess but even so! 
Locogeoff,
Go on, please tell us what the worst one was!

It was a football strip.
To a football supporter great, to a non football supporter not so good.
wee boy, sadistic parents, disappointment on christmas morning and all that.
Dont really wish to expand further
sorry it not anything gross

"You don't know me . . . ."
Two gifts one Christmas from a mother-in-law (now ex-mother-in-law):
1) A wallet with at least 12 slots for credit cards (while I was in graduate school, up to my eyes in student loans and owning not a single credit
card), and
2) After-shave stinkum (I'd had a full beard for several years at that point).

Electric blue sweater vest
Hand-knitted. Resembled chain mail and must've weighed forty pounds. Never worn, of course.

When I was 22, a wealthy aunt gave me four well used coloured pencils, wrapped in brown paper. One of the pencils was about 3 inches long and the lead
was broken. The others were various lengths with well worn leads.
I shouldn't complain, it was only the second Chrissey present she had ever given me and the only reason she gave me the pencils was because she
was spending Christmas with us.
I don't take after that side of the family....I don't give any presents ...ever.
Cheers, Rorty.
