Its got me quite angry.
Imagine that feeling trying as you attempt to smile politely at this well intentioned gift.

I bought similar from Debenhams for £2 in the January sale. It came in a funky beer can style plant pot which was worth £2 on its own. It’s grown a little thing that looks like cress so far.

A bit misleading really. And pricey but then again anything in a gift set has a premium on it compared to the same products bought as single items.

I see most of the reviews are from the givers rather than the receivers hehe.

At least it wasn't one of those Torp system things. If someone bought me one of those I would smash it to pieces in front of them, take a **** under the sink and say "There, I've put something better in the place where that thing would stay FOR ETERNITY."

Christmas day is fun in my house.

May I try some of you cress in my next beer. You never know...

It's amazing how many people think that beer is made from hops alone. In fact you can show them a bag of malt and they think it's hops!
