Its that time of year again where I have to think up cryptic clues for present gift tags.

This Christmas I have bought my brother a book on Useless Japanese Inventions.

So far the best I can come up with is "I hope this insipres you."

Any suggestions?

Was the book written by a Japanese man? If so, is it in the list?

There is a japanesee art to creating useless inventions. I have forgotten what it is called at the moment though. They make things like duster slippers for cats so that when they walk around the house they clean the floor, that sounds pretty useful to me actually

Thats pretty useless if your cat is always outside, not to mention cats paws are so small..

I thought about getting you a great present but instead I got you this ... it's the thought that counts!

Idea 1: Maybe you can prove them wrong.

Idea 2: I though you'd fit in with this!

Idea 3: When I saw this, I remembered you needed a new hobby.

Idea 4: This is proof you're not as bad as I first thought!

Idea 5: I thought this was missing a "Don't try this at home." warning, but then I thought, it doesn't matter!

Idea 6: Next year, tell me want you want for Christmas!

Idea 7: I searched high and low for the perfect present for you, but then I thought "Sod it, this'll do."...

Idea 8: Originally I thought this was a DIY guide!

It's actually for babies, not cats.

I enjoy every minute of it!
