    What a good thread although after 10 years of grooming he gets it right 99% of the time now with help from my 6 year old DD (bless her)

    Can't believe he actually bought you a box of biros :rotfl:
    I haven't got one!

    My presents in the past from OH have been really good. However, this year is different as we have set a limit.....and besides I don't know what I want anyway.

    The only thing I do want / need is some green towels for the bathroom...so chances are that I'll end up having green towels coming out of my ears.

    Why should you have green towels for the bathroom for christmas. Ask for something for yourself because I'm sure your OH will ask for some tea towels for the kitchen - NOT!
    Come on girl spoil yourself
    I haven't got one!

    Want green towels for the bathroom...as its newly necorated, and that's all I need to set it off nicely. Don't need to ask OH for these though...as I've given other people a couple of hints about this.

    As for what I want....erm....erm....erm....not a clue.
