I had the classic hand knitted jumper from an elderly relative one year, it was wide enough for two and the sleeves finished at the elbows, of course you have to say you like it, i had to wear it for christmas dinner untill she left.

Ok fella's it's starting to roll.

For my sins and there are many!

A few Christmas’s ago, I received a present from the you've guess it the "Mother in Law" To give a bit of background. I like clothes of certain period in history. Basically American 40’s n 50's.

So we are all there, sat round watching the kids opening their prezzies and there's paper going everywhere and I'm handed this present from the mother in law. My wife had already warned me and to give the RIGHT response when opening the present.
As I slowly removed the wrapping, the item of clothing dropped onto the floor. I could see it was one of those cardigans with a shirt snitched into the V of the neck and as the item hit the floor, in a hookersque manner, I managed to hook the item round with my foot and under the dining table and out of sight. So I THOUGHT. One of my kids saw this and made comment. My wife was none too pleased and my mother in Law, if she could have, she would have.. shot me on the spot.
You've guess it, I had to wear the item and lovingly for the rest of the day and it didn’t matter how much gravy or beer i got down it, I STILL HAD TO WEAR IT.

Since that Christmas my mother in law, well my wife buy's it and gives it to her to give to me.Jack Daniels "Cheers Mother in law" oh and the cardigan/shirt i wear it every year in homage to the mother in law and naff prezzies everywhere
