do you feel sorry for me?
This is what Alex got for Christmas from PIL. Any ideas where I can put that in my house??? The bloody thing doesn’t even fold up or anything!!! Have set it up in the living room for the moment, although still needs batteries.
Oh and it’s snowing loads here. We hardly ever get snow here, so as soon as the kids get up, we’re off into the garden to play in it. Might try and bury the bowling alley while I’m at it….

Yes, that is an interesting choice of present. Ludicrous amount of money as well, for something that doesn’t really offer much scope. Weird.

I feel sorry for you too, but rofl at the same time … I’d be livid if my parents/steve’s parents had bought something like that though! All right if you have a huge house with games room in the garage or something, but otherwise a complete nightmare!

Bloody hell. What’s wrong with a bag of skittles and a tennis ball.

Take the bugger back to the store and use the money to either buy something more “educational”, or buy something that’s of more use to the whole family. Or just something smaller!

yep, I would definitely feel very miffed if I was presented with *that* to keep in the house! Suggest it stays at PIL’s if they love it so much or go wtih Kris’s idea of trading it in…. £60 for glorified skittles…. hmmmm
