Why is it that I can rebuild engines, fix everything around the house and even multiask, yet I used full roll of wrapping paper to wrap a bloody kettle! At this rate I'll spend more on wrapping paper than the presents. How do you girls (and I use the term loosely) seem to be able to do it so easily? Any advice, tuition or offers to do it for me gratefully accepted.

Unless it's a Suzuki GT750 type kettle!! If so you did well with one roll of paper.

LOL - just spent 1/2 hour wrapping a leather bike jacket. Complete with hanger, so it can be stored hanging up, for a couple of days Geedubu - if ya can't wrap a box, there's no hope

Nothing wrong with a kettle Geedubu, a very practical and usefull thing. I think i's a "woman thing" not liking practical prezzies. I learnt the hard way.... I once bought my ex a car charger and spare battery for her phone and a birmingham A to Z.....3 things i knew she needed because i listened to what she said...... Was she pleased ??? was she hell as like....... She said flowers would be better............... oh well,,,,,,
