I got jeans, a top and a river island handbag from my Mum and step Dad A crappy necklace, bracelet and nail stuff from Dale's Dad and step Mum (I dunno why they bother! Every year they get me rubbish I don't like and won't use and you can see they are embarrassed when I open it! Dale was really mad this year as it's not even a proper set and is half used ) I got DKNY perfume and lotion from my step Bro make up bags from my Sister and a bath set from my step Sis. Me and Dale didn't do gifts for each other as we couldn't afford it, I did go for a night out in Sheffield which cost me £40 though so I guess that was my presie and Dale had some fishing gear back in October! lol

We also got a box of Celebrations from my auntie & uncle but she didn't wrap it as she didn't want me to feel it was a "Christmas" present as she knew we couldn't afford to get them one this year. How sweet!
