Why? Why? Why?

[bonnieboy]

Why do manufacturers not put Christmas sweets in square tins? After a morning wrapping and swearing and getting stuck up with sellotape trying to help with the wrapping I stood back and looked at what I've achieved. What a bloody mess, they look like a dogs dinner, in fact they look like the dog had wrapped them

bonnieboy if your anything like me at wrapping stuff the dog probably would have done a better job!

Ermmmm! you mean they actually last long enough for you to wrap them???

Mow,,,

After years of suffering PWF ( Present Wrapping Frustration! ) . . . . I now only buy pressies that the shape loans itself to a neat finished job.

Does my head in when they look a wreck no matter what you do.



However, I now get Customers odd shaped gifts to gift wrap for them . . . . so the trauma continues.

Easy to solve!
Step 1; eat sweets,
Step 2; use said tin to store Vaping bits,

I have a system for those -- put weird shaped present in xmas bag, cellotape top shut and add bow! done and dusted and hand over via rope handles.... far less hassle!

How come you folk can build coils and sub-ohming wotsits and yet can't wrap pressies?

There's an irony there that the EU need to regulate on

And as for that bloody elf who can wrap any present with three bits of sellotape and there's always time for a bow. I'll give it time for a bow
