Below is my original gift list and is still in brand new condition, except for the fact that I obtained items 1 and 10 it has never been used. So I convieniently removed items 1 and 10 and resubmit it for your buying pleasure.
I think Andy's idea of a gift list is a good one. You just never know when people are wanting to shower you with gifts, and it is rude to not have gift ideas readily available. I must admit that I haven't bothered to look at Andy's list yet- just too busy, but I hope everyone studies mine closely and takes notes if necessary. Last year I put out some really wild and expensive ideas, this year I will try to be more practical. Perhaps this will prove to be a more effective list.
2 Repair Manual for my MG Midget, I think it is a 1972
3 Repair Manual for my Ski-doo, it is a 1986 Safari 377
4 Leather or cotton work gloves, not expensive ones
5 New wallet
6 Garden hose
7 Speedometer for my bike
8 Mole trap to get rid of mole in yard
9 Adapter to play CD's in my car cassette player
I will keep adding to this as I think of more things. And just to absolve my guilt I will look at Andy's list right now.
Dibs on the black socks! Those sound pretty cheap, unless "getting rid of the moles" means just going out and hitting a few opportune spots in the ground with the sledge hammer, in which case I'll claim that one.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you could trap the moles in the black socks and then wear them. That's two gifts in one! Alternatively, I recommend a small engine repair manual to cover the MG and Ski-doo.
ReplyDeleteNo, the Ski-doo has a much larger engine than the MG
