Can you name the most unwanted Christmas present that you've been given from previous Christmas'?

Why you didn't want it?

And what you did with it?


Edit: 2017 unwanted presents, why not do a swap with someone else on EDF.





Administrator: I hope you allow this post, it's just a brain storm of mine.

I had one of the most ugly but surely one of the most useful: I had a UK made Brick with 2018 written on it!


Person that gave it to me says apparently they are in big demand these days so.. easy to give to someone else in case.

She also added everybody has an irish relative, a scottish friend or european family. Perhaps American friends or mexican friends maybe?...In the middle east also in big demand and all over the world really. Cataluna wants to separate, and surely some North Italians will be happy to "draw a line" above Rome!


I must say it is an ugly present, possibly most ugly ever, but surely one of the most useful in this world..

From my side i would have welcomed better some chocolate box and wine to share!!

Perhaps Pato, you could exchange your 2018 ugly brick for some choco and Wine, as you don't drink, though, non Alco stuff.

      Recommending Aaron | Plasterer

      By Clairegh · Posted

      We first used Aaron's services for a badly damaged wall that had gone back to the brickwork due to water ingress from the bay window. We found Aaron initially through recommendation and were very fortunate to do so as we already had a couple of quotes from trades found online that were just ridiculous, clearly just a rip off, so not sure what we would of done without that recommendation. We have just had more work completed by him, two walls skimmed and more comprehensive work where the brickwork was exposed around the fireplace. The wall above the fireplace was the original plaster finish and in good condition but the original plan was to have the whole wall replastered but we couldnt get the tv off the wall bracket so asked Aaron if he could just plaster up to the tv, not ideal but not much choice. Aaron didnt have any issue with that atall and more than happy to do it. Amazingly the join between the new plaster and old plaster is invisible. Perfect feather edge finish.  Aaron is very pleasant natured, he turns up on time, he doesnt mess about and gets on with the job. He works in a very clean manner. He doesnt try and inflate the job to make it more expensive. We found him to be extremely competitively priced. Both jobs have been finished to an excellent standard. The finish is so smooth its like glass. We will certainly be using his services again in the future.     Aaron Manser 07773 410661

      Yet another burst main... major leak on Lordship Lane nr junction with Barry Rd

      By Batbara · Posted

      Yes, and now there's a leak further down Barry Road. Two men from Thames came and stood there looking at it and then went away. Over 24 hours later water still pouring out and no sign of any action to repair
