Happy Sunday folks!
Got the wean’s girlfriend visiting from Austria for the week and look what their Dad brought as a gift!
Would love to hear of some interesting/peculiar gifts that folk have unexpectedly received? I was absolutely blown away by getting this and it’s just such a nice wee gesture that I was blown away.
I’ve really tried, but their side of the family takes birthdays seriously and has this thing about ‘real’ presents being… I don’t actually know. I guess Spa vouchers count because it’s an experience. But digital books are somehow a cop out. Or something. She’s a bit stubborn and not my mum so it’s a bit awkward to keep finding ways of saying ‘i just want an Amazon voucher because that’s what would really make me happy’ without it coming across as me being the dick!
It’s just a culture clash because my family don’t really make a big deal out of birthdays at all and certainly don’t have some weird caste system of presents lol
Ok new plan. Go for the spa voucher and sell it to someone you know, then spend the money on Kindle books.
Win/win lol.
Yeah, I’ll be in touch 😂
