    :D:D:D:D



    DS1 sent DS2 a University Survival kit, with a list of instructions. There was all sorts including

    A BBQ
    A copy of the Karma sutra
    Condoms
    Beer Bongs
    Chocolate paint
    Barry White CD
    A willy warmer
    Where's Wally book
    Every spirit that Asda sold
    Cocktail making set/book
    Pingpong balls
    A massager
    Pen knife


    The items went on and on…. it was hilarious as he read the instructions and opened the items.

    :D:D:D



    I have given very nice copies of karma sutra as wedding presents before.
    Goddaughter already has a case of beer to prop her door open with.
    Unfortunately I want to give the sort of things they will have forgotten or run out of quickly. Face wipes would be good to add I have some glitchy ones somewhere. GD friend who is already there is captain of rugby team so she will have a very good social life. Both nieces will get regular envelopes of moc ect.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    It sure is:cool:
  • A Herbal Essence glitch would be good right now as I am doing both my nieces uni boxes of essentials. Actually thinking of packing in a nice bucket as very useful when overindulging.
    Could use some help with a list.

    A can opener ... very handy for when the ringpulls don't and the corned beef won't...

    The butterfly kind are the best. And cheaper to replace. (After the first few weeks, my DD used to keep her cutlery and canopener in her room and not in the shared kitchen, just so she could actually find them when needed :rotfl:)
