Worst - My sister is a classic, for years she has been buying beer mugs and ashtrays for my three brothers and me for Xmas. This works out fine for my brothers who all smoke and drink beer, but I have never smoked and only have a beer maybe once every few years.

Best - I was taken on a three day Holiday to the blue Mountains by my girlfriend about 10 years ago - that was special (I wonder what ever happened to her).

Worst: My Grandmother several years ago gave me a terry towelling canary yellow dress with lime green piping sleeves size 16. :-& :-&

Not only was the dress awful, I was a size 8 at the time.

Best: Going to Europe in 1988-1989, I surprised myself with a great present. :D

Worst: One of those flour-filled stress ball things with fluffy hair and those googly eyes. It was intended to help me through the HSC, but it actually ended up going rock hard and is now useless.

Best: Yesterday I was given a car as a combined 19th birthday/Christmas present from my nan and aunt. It rocks!

Worst: Anything I get from my grandparents on my dad's side. I don't get anything off my mum's parent's, so there's no bad presents there :D

Best: A round the world trip last Christmas including Lake Tahoe, San Francisco, L.A, St. Louis, Orlando, New York City, London, Paris, Rome and Singapore.

Worst - A toy spider - it's hideous :lol: Also, an engraved sterling silver cigarette lighter where I am clearly a non-smoker.

Best - Overseas holiday to Fiji, despite the fact I have not as yet experienced it (this year's Christmas present from my parents).

Worst - An aunt bought me talc powder when I was about 15. No idea why but it has always stuck in my head as a shocker.

Best - The girlfriend and I bought a kitten for ourselves this year. Top little fella.

WORST - It would definatly have to be stationary. I hated getting that sort of thing when I was a kid. Basically cuz anybody who gave me that sort thing implied that it was for school and as you can imagine at Christmas when ur on Holidays School is the last thing on your mind.

BEST - I haven't got it yet but I know I'm getting a DVD player for Christmas this year

That's funny stuff. Reminds me that when my cousin was little, he was scared of Grover (from Sesame Street). I can't inmagine why! He's harmless!
