    Were you wrapping your balls? Got the cellatape too tight?

    I’ve got 5 kids! I’d need enough tin foil to make a hat for every flat earther on the planet!

    I sent George's to Santa last Wednesday whilst watching Jesus score a hat-trick. Took me the full match to wrap 12 and two lots of wrapping paper.

    Can't say I'm right good at it. Not wise to be downing cider at the same time mind :D.

    I've just finished mine. 3am in the morning! I gave up trying to wrap three footballs. Literally a ball ache.

    Started weeks ago, normally missus leaves it all to tonight - it's a breeze this year.

    Just a bag to find for these anal beads.

    Get the bags, various sizes, absolute game changer, a job that normally takes us over 2 hours is done in half hour, no selotape or cutting

    It’s only just behind lion taming, in the list of things I’m not suited to. This year my mum gave me the money to buy the kids presents, so I had to wrap those too. I was half expecting my son saying he now understands where my lack of wrapping ability comes from, cos Nan is rubbish too.
