Reminds me of some years ago.
My hubby used to love clip on ties and had taken a shine to a silvery silk one which he wanted to go with his grey suit for when we went dancing.
I said I would buy it him as an extra for Christmas.
I was wrapping it up and it had too much paper at one end so I decided to cut the extra paper off WITHOUT taking the tie out.
YES youve guessed it because I finished up cutting the ruddy V off the bottom of it.
I called myself all the silly sods under the sun and had to go and get another one.
We had a good laugh about it though Christmas morning.
