HAHA! You've profiled two opposing approaches to gift-giving: the practical and the romantic. Both thoughtful and loving, neither guided by a real understanding of the needs and desires of the recipient! Good story, anyway.

I always thought that Henry the Hoover was more of a romantic gesture. Those innocent eyes...

I used to have one of these in London. They were epic until I downsized and got a house.

Now, I just whizz around with my hoover. Half the price and doesn't break every time you sneeze.

Epic story - getting your hints in early for what not to get you for Christmas.
