Holiday Souvenires

Hippo from South Africa Weighs a ton.

I've tried my hardest to imagine it and I've come up with nothing that would explain why you brought a Hippo home. I'm guessing that this thing is made from wood or something but I can't work out what it can be. I thought at first it might be some sort of coffee table, but from what I remember Hippo's are mostly round which don't make a good coffee table, stick a cup of coffee on a hippo and it's odds on that it would slide off. Probably good for resting a pancake on cos they kinda bend, but coffee cups are a non starter.
So tune it's simple really.....why?

About 3 years ago I had to go to texas on business so i don't know if this counts on a holiday thread........ but whilst searching for a gift to bring back for my long suffering wife I happened upon a 10" glow in the dark dildo....... with an armadillo head clitoral stimulator

Last December I brought a rolling pin all the way back from Prague, needed it to make mince pies you know.
id just like to point out the only involvement marms had was; supplying the rolling pin, yes it was from prague, and eating the mince pies.

Excuse me sir did you pack this rolling pin yourself ?

An Itch.....
Nah not really... just thought I would disgust someone... Probably a Maori Spear... when packaged was advised to tell customs it is a "decorative staff!"
Oh and a frog hat on another holiday won in some drunken games... say no more.. it resides in the local dump now me thinks

When i was about 7 I also brought home from Spain a stupid plastic donkey covered in patches of old carpet redface

When older and you'd have thought wiser, we bought home from Los Angeles a US Helicopter pilots helmet......very useful that was rolleyes

In fact we still have it confused
