I work with a woman called Anna, she did me a bit of a favor a few weeks ago, and made it known in no uncertain terms that she wanted a Christmas present from me.
I suggested I take her out to lunch, but she didn't want that. I even suggested the good place.
Two weeks ago she went to WA for the first time for the w/e with her b/f and stayed in Dunsburugh. I was hyping her up for it and said she needed to stay longer and she would absolutely love it. She got back and told me she could easily live in W.A. - loved it and wants to go back.
I don't really want to buy her a present. But cause she was so insistent about one I thought I should make an effort at least.
I was thinking about it tonight. She's about 30, very hot, athletic, looks after herself, is a bit of a hippy with expensive tastes in all things wanky.
I want to spend no more than $30 to keep me off my back.
What do you reckon?
Art, craft, Cheese, Chocolate, body lotion - don't know. Something distinctly Margaret River may work.
There's some nice stuff at the M.R. Chocolate Factory - and I'm sure they will deliver.

Or any decent bottle of wine from that region... (picked up from your local bottlo)
There's also a place that makes organic soaps and stuff like that...

You can't really go wrong with any of these...
Check the Margaret River tourist bureau for other 'gift ware' shops from that region.
Best of luck...
Does she like wine? Nudge the budget up to $35 to a pair. A pair of nice whites. Does she sunbake topless, or top on? Sorry, I lost my train of thought.
Yep, Margarets is known as a good white region. Can't go wrong with whites from there. Or maybe 1 white, 1 rosé.
What I just wrote - about giving smoked salmon to people, has given me an idea.
My 3 employers have been really great to me this year and I want to gift them with some smoked salmon.
The question is, I don't want other employees know I've done it. I also don't want to feel like a brown nose, and make them think differently towards me. This is just my way of saying thanks for the year.
I enjoy giving, to people who help me, have I drunk too much?
Seriously, it's not protocol to give gifts to bosses - but, I really only want to say thank you.
I can get their home addresses and deliver it, or leave them a cryptic email message to pull out the newspaper wrapped items from the fridge.
What do you think is the best way of approaching this and should I bother?
Damn - digital camera not to hand..........pic forthcoming.
Opening another Corona with my thong as we speak.........
I got someone a present one year .... it was a pencil sharpener that you stuck into the arse of a little plastic figure. yknow one of those crappy Chinese politicaly incorrect nic naks that you think is hilarious at the time. The only problem was I didn't realize that when you stuck the pencil in the guys arse he said in a very bad Chinese/Californian accent " **** me up the ass" and " ohhhh yeeahhh". The present was opened in front of everyone..... the guys 80 year old mother and grand kids. It was the worst **** up ever.
If you don't wish to make a huge fuss and "give" in front of everyone .
Then I would suggest, sneaking into your employers private offices , and hide the open "presents " of smoked salmon somewhere that they will find eventually ,in the new year.
They need not know that you are the "giver " but you will still get the pleasure of "giving"
merry xmas everyone xxx
Get some lingerie - either her BF or Adolf will be the winner in the long run ..... there's gotta be more to this tale Adolf.
not sure if im right but its sounds like she might be after different type of swimmers
$30 sounds a bit light to me if shes done that for you. id be going $100 / $150 with a nice gift hamper of wine etc. or get her to contact me and i can sort it out for you
there are so many good ideas here, but I reckon "paying more than $30 to keep her of your back", well how about give her $60 and roll over, and there might just be a happy ending to this lovely story
They make for great fireballs if you fly too close to candles or naked flames,
Lucky I bought 2,
You better put me down for another one adolf
The best entertainment yet!!!
