I got a book. The secret race- inside the hidden world of the Tour de France.
Really looking forward to reading it.
Spent 2 days trying to find something suitable for under a fiver for a woman who rides horses. Far longer than I spent choosing presents for my own family! Finally bought her a horse - cartoon themed calendar. Hope she likes it.

Best secret santa I ever got was a copy of Punch magazine from the week I was born (late Aug, 68). Someone went to a lot of effort to get that and I often look at it. It does make me feel rather old though!

Don''t be a part of secret santa if you're going to moan about it.
I can moan if I want to. Bugger off! My recipient got a marvelous ceramic travel mug with silicone lid and grip. What's more I filled it with chocolates!

They are probably on WalkerChat now and have started a thread with the same title as yours.

Bloody Joe Public, think all walkers want a travel mug and all women like chocolate.:whistle:

Don't read too much into a £5 present from someone that doesn't know you too well.

Ha! What makes you think my recipient was a woman? And that she walks?

Could have been worse. When I worked at nPower I put a fair bit of thought into a pressie for the name I pulled out of the hat. I got little LED light thingies to attach to either shoes, zipper or hat for use when running in the dark. She was really chuffed with them.
The lady who bought for me got me some earrings for pierced ears. She'd only sat next to me for a year so maybe she hadn't noticed that I never wore earrings. In fact she had mentioned that I didn't wear them and I had told her that I didn't have pierced ears.

Its only a bit of fun though. I reckon, in the grand scheme of things a bottle and a couple of drinks powders is not a bad pressie. It could have been worse. One of my neighbours was given a pack of those ice pack things that you put in drinks and can re-freeze that were in the shape of boobs and willies. She was mortified. She is an older lady and is quite prim.

I would've quite liked a boob and willy ice pack set!

Pretty much all secret santa gifts I've been given have involved a combination of comedy willies, bath stuff and alcohol. A water bottle would've been a welcome change!
Last week my three friends and I went out for our xmas meal - we get together roughly every 3 months, it's supposed to be monthly but it never happens -we do a secret santa with a £5 budget. We all buy a present then we pick them out of a bag blind -so could potentially end up with any gift.
I bought a set of trendy coasters with slogans like "I don't get drunk, I get awesome" and "Sarcasm served daily" on.
One friend picked a lovely scarf, another got a white owl ornament and chocolates (I love owls!) one friend got the coasters.
I got four test tubes filled with brightly coloured and strangely flavoured alcohol and some bath stuff that smells of refreshers.
A water bottle would've been nice!
