    With presentations I try not to make it too complicated, just the key points with a bit of filler, and speak to the friendliest person in the room - you will be fine x

    I am going to a baby shower soon. I don't really want to, as the pregnant lady is not particularly nice, in fact she can be horrid and I mean horrid. An example of her behaviour was during our first meeting she had asked for no ice, the bar staff put ice in, she took it out and throw it at him. She has done much worse, I really do not want to go, but have been coerced by my two best friends.

    So I need to think what I can take for a present without spending any money… any suggestions?

    Oh dear, maybe having a baby to look after will sort her out? Im afraid Im pretty brutal like that and refuse to be false. If I don't like someone's company, I stay away from them where possible. Im also not a fan of baby showers :o
    I don't even know the etiquette. Is it a pressie for the mother or the baby?

    Sorry not very helpful :rotfl::rotfl:
