Whats your most memorable Christmas present...

[Foxxi]

Either from being a child or an adult???


As a child... had to be my bike! - Me, my brother and sister all wanted a bike each..My dad was out of work so we knew my folks couldnt afford us one ...my 2 siblings and I had opened all our christmas presents.. there was no bikes!.. We all pretended to be pleased with what we had.. but were secretly dissappointed that we didnt get a bike! Dad asked me to go in the kitchen to get him a glass of water... 3 bikes all lined up.. a BMX for my brother, a Grifter for my sister and a Little Red Riding hood one for me..WOWZERS!

As an adult - before I married my husband, our first xmas together he got me an Armani watch// I still wear it!


Your turn!

My fav Christmas present was more about how much effort my Mum went to for me rather than what it was! I desperately wanted to go to see Bon Jovi in concert and asked my Mum to get me tickets. She told me she tried to get tickets and they were sold out and even went as far as to give me a fake phone number to call where i could leave my details incase of any cancellations The fake phone number was her friend who pretended to be some kind of box office and took my details etc. Anyway, needless to say this 'box office' never phone me back with cancellations and a couple of months later on Christmas day I opened one of my presents from my Mum and it was 2 tickets to Bon Jovi. I cried buckets

As a child it was a box of Commodore 64 games there were loads in it. But to make it worse my Dad put them in an Adidas Samba trainer box and I thought that was what I had got. I had wanted a pair for ages!!

As an adult it is the Eternity ring my OH got me.

As a child, it was my first ever pet, a sandy-coloured rabbit that I called Princess! I think I was 7 at the time, and I'd been on at my mum and dad to let me have a rabbit for ages. I got up christmas morning, went downstairs and opened up a few presents, then my Dad said he thought it had started snowing and told me to come into the garden so we could see if it was properly. I went out there with him and as I walked into the back garden, I saw a huge rabbit hutch, and started jumping up and down & getting all excited, he opened it and there was this gorgeous little rabbit in there!

As an adult, it was the christmas just after Amber was born, and on Christmas Night my OH gave me an envelope with a christmas card inside it. I opened it and there were tickets to see The Eagles in concert at the 02 in London! I was desperate to go and see them but he told me he'd tried ringing them up from work the morning they went on sale and they were all sold out.. he made me wait the whole of christmas day to give me them!
