Not that I’m buying you all one I hasten to add.

The time has come when I’m asked what I want for Christmas by my mum. If I say “surprise me” I’ll get another M&S V neck blue jumper.

This year I shall ask for one of these.

What would you like with a max limit of £15.

A jumper from M&S costs what, £25?

A CTP must be four times that. [awful syntax]Just ask for the cash equivalent of what she was gonna buy you except a jumper[/awful syntax].

a torch, you can't beat a good torch

or anything from a hardware shop, tools, fixings, a tin of floor paint.....

I'm easily pleased, although last years jumper from Next was particularily bad to be fair my mum gave it to me and my 60 year old dad said it was a bit old fashioned!
