Craig: My sisters and I wanted to get my mum and dad something really nice ____. We ____ jewellery, chocolates, DVD s- but we couldn't ____, you know, special. Finally, my oldest sister had a brilliant idea. We bought them tickets ____ in London - a musical - and we kept it a surprise for Mum and Dad. They really loved it. This was about four years ago now, but they still ____ Vicky: I remember, it was one Christmas...about five or six years ago. The whole family was there, and I ____ a present from my Aunt Victoria. It was a book.Everybody ____ at me, asking me what it was, so I read the title out: The Big Book of Jokes. So my dad said, "Well, let's ____ some jokes then! Read them out, Vicky!" It was so embarrassing! I sat there, reading out the worst jokes you can imagine. Nobody ____. I ____ to stop, but my dad kept saying "Try another one". It was horrible! Harry: I was about five years old, I suppose. And I was a really huge Batman ____. I loved him! I wanted to be him. For my ____ that year, I got a Batman ____. I couldn't believe it! I put it on straight away, and I didn't take it off! I think I wore that Batman costume every day for six weeks - at home, in town, at the shops. A few ____ later, I lost ____ in Batman - I never really wore the costume again. But still, it's a ____ that's really stayed in my mind. Beth: A couple of years ago, I ____ to buy a present for my mum - for Mother's Day. I went to a department store and, as I ____ the door, a woman asked me to try lots of perfumes. I liked one of them a lot but it was quite expensive. I didn't have enough money to buy the perfume and a present for my mum. So I had an idea. I ____ the perfume as a present for my mum! The trouble is, my mum can't wear perfume - she's ____ it. But I ____ that. Until after I ____ it to her! She was OK about it - she said it didn't ____. But I felt really bad
