Xmas Present Opinions

[Paul]

Well I think I've found the ideal present for Chimaera but before I go to the shops I just thought I would ask for a few opinions on the choice.
Now as you may be aware our Chimaera is a little keen on her automobiles so I thought I would get her something car related
What do you think to these???
(Don't worry about Chimaera seeing her present before the day, her PC power supply has developed a fault and is blowing any fuses put into it's plug... another job for tomorrow

Excellent, she could take a wheel off and wear it round her neck when you take her out to dinner to apologize

That thing won't last long on your car if you live in Liverpool

I was thinking dual purpose present to be honest... earrings I thought Tasteful, understated (well, for this area they are ) and they just look so coooooool on a car

Well you evil person you as she is bound to see this thread at some point and when she realises you disabled her PC you are a dead man.

I speak from experience as myself drilled a hole though the plug to the four point extension lead in the room the only one in the house that would reach the PC and stuck a mini padlock through it to pull a similar stunt thinking my misses would not be clever enough to wire a plug and gain access as this was the only plug point in the room where the computer was.

I thought I was clever and said it was to stop her Sisters children using the PC was when I was not there as I was the only one with the key etc.

How wrong could I be as she needed to use the PC desparately when I was in work one day and she called an electrician who cut the plug off and rewired it to a new plug and the best bit was she used my credit card to pay for it grrrrrrrrr.

Think again Paul you will as I have learnt never outsmart a Woman with intent.

Back on topic top idea for the presents though.

You want something cool and suitable in a car? Try this on the back parcel shelf.

Nice try, not as though there were other means of doing it like removing the power cord

Hmmm, cut off one plug and wire on another? Electrician bill.... I'm guessing close to 3 figures

Think again Paul you will as I have learnt never outsmart a Woman with intent.

But I'm not in a tent and it's not as though she will see this thread as I'm sure a friendly member of the team will remove it before she gets back ....

Back on topic top idea for the presents though.

A bit disapointing though as there is a distinct lack of blue leds on them, might have to get a dremmel and add my own lights to it

im sure she would prefer Burberry spokes


Could do with some green or blue neons on it too
