Jees, thanks for the reminder, I'd best send out a group email saying, "Hold the diamonds (too much bloodshed & murder in producing them), I already have way too much gold, parfum, flowers die, don't like choccy, so this year boys, it's "Candle Making Supplies" errrr read "Tobacco" or you're a dead man walking."
Don't make this mistake I saw a guy make here fellas. Was in a large Department Store akin to Nordstroms & this guy is trying to describe his wife's preferred perfume ... he says, "The box is white, it's got pale coloured flowers all over it, think it starts with an A".
The shop assistant's brow is furrowed, she's wracking her brains, but just can visualise it, when all of a sudden he screams out excitedly, loud enough to wake the dead, "I know, it's called Anus, Anus!!!" Well, the entire Cosmetics Section fell about laughing or gasped in horror (a bit like this place really), the chappy playing the Grand Piano in the entry even stopped ...the woman looks at him, beyond shocked and with total aloofness says, "Err, sir, that would be Anais Anais you would be thinking of, shall I wrap a box for you". He looked confused, didn't get it, says the woman waiting next to him, "same damn thing isn't it exceptin' she's talking French at me", took his box and walked off happy as a clam ... if only his gal knew what a total ass he made of himself! They walk among us, they really do!!!!
