The worst was a little hand held Dirt Devil.....bought for my by the man in my life.
I had said that this little vacuum looked perfect for getting the stairs done.
For some time before Christmas my other half kept excitedly telling me he had bought me something really ‘special’....so much so that I could hardly wait for Christmas Day.

I should have known better....he does not have a good record when choosing gifts....this was no exception.
He almost needed a skilled surgeon to remove it from a bodily orifice.....and I would not have used Vaseline to get it in there.

remember my father doing something similar. my mother was equally underwhelmed and to this day i remember her reaction. thats for the house, whats my present. start of another silent christmas day.
