If Santa won the lottery I'd love a sewing machine, fancy food mixer or camera but more realistically I'd also be very happy with a lovely thick fluffy dressing gown, new Converse All Stars and/or DVD box set of Eerie Indiana (US TV series from the early 90s).0 -
I'm a 40yr old bloke, with two very tiny children (3yrs & 6wks)
I honestly can't think of a single item that i'd buy for myself at this precise moment, not a one. How my missus is going to figure something out is beyond me but she claims to have a few ideas already.0
