| We have all had special occasions when we look forward to the event for weeks, to meeting old friends and family and celebrating together, whether it is a wedding anniversary, birthday, office leaving do or even divorce party. But how often does it fall flat on its face because of those all too obvious disappointments namely the presents? Some people just do not have the imagination to find an original gift that is guaranteed to thrill, amuse and satisfy all in one go. They are totally incapable of thinking beyond the gloves, shirt or box of chocolates that are always gratefully received, but given the choice would be gladly exchanged for something a little more off the wall.
Special occasions can be taken far too seriously and so what is needed is a little levity, a humorous gift that will keep the recipient and friends chuckling for hours. One sure fire way of reaching everyone's funny bone is with the hilarious Sat Nag. With 25 annoyingly irritating and criticising phrases which are delivered by a cynically patronising woman's voice, the Sat Nag is bound to ring true with all of us who have experienced the real thing. The Sat Nag is complete with a holographic street map showing such amusing names as Backseat Drive. For those people hoping to receive a real sat nav as a gift, they will really appreciate the next best thing. The Sat Nag will entertain everyone who comes across it and may even deter those without the real thing to cross it off their wish list. Let's face it; we can all live without the sat nav doing a good imitation of the mother in law in our ears as we get lost around the city centre. The Sat Nag is a whole lot cheaper and much better value for money, and who needs the real thing when you'll probably still get lost anyway?
For those gifts for the car minded person, there are some amazing driving related experience days on offer. You could drive that sports car that you always dreamt you would one day own, although these days your dreams are more realistic and run along the lines of paying off the mortgage before you are 90 or possibly attempting to find the waistline that you used to have 10 years ago. Never mind all that. Life is for living, and you could be driving that Lotus Exige around Silverstone just like you thought you would. Feel the breeze whistling through your hair, the adrenalin pumping through your veins and inhale that evocative smell of burning rubber as you round those amazing bends.
If you are fortunate enough to have been given the Sat Nag as a gift, perhaps you will be able to install it in the car of your dreams. The Sat Nag will bring you seriously back to reality with its nagging tones. Perhaps Silverstone is too fast for you, in which case the JCB Driving experience is ideal. At a much slower pace, but no less exhilarating, the JCB 3CX will thrill your socks off as you get away from your witty Sat Nag and the real world for a couple of hours and race around with a gargantuan earth mover under your control. Of course, you do not get much bigger than a JCB, but you can drive a double decker bus. Install your Sat Nag for this huge experience day and you can pretend that you have a load of aggravating passengers there with you to offer little gems of advice. With the Double Decker Bus driving experience you will be instructed in maneuvering this beast around a course, as well as learning to park up and travel around roundabouts. This gift is definitely for the control freak in your life, so make sure that they take their Sat Nag with them to bring them down a peg or two.
For those people with more energy than sense, the exhilaration that they will experience with a Karting for Two gift will suit them to a tee. With practice drives around a complicated and demanding circuit, they will then have the opportunity to take part in races, through various heats and the possibility of taking part in the semis and final. They probably will not have the time to enjoy their Sat Nag while taking part in Karting, as all their concentration will be focused on the touchline and their attempts to reach it first. On the drive back home though, when they are feeling drained and exhausted, pick their spirits up with the patronising tones of the no-it-all voice blurting out her opinions from the Sat Nag. The driving experience day may be over and done, but the memories will live on, and so will the Sat Nag.
