These days couples seem to have never ending lists of wedding presents, with people having to sign up to a particular present before the actual wedding.
In my day it was different, you took whatever was bought and if you got doubles you put it away for future use.
We got towels - bathroom and teatowels - a chopping board, ironing board, iron, Pyrex dishes, a clock, sheets, a brush and dustpan, a set of pans, a fondue set, fruit bowl, and various other bits I will probs recall later.
We displayed all the gifts on a trestle table in a room over a local pub we had the reception in.
Am interested to hear what others got as wedding presents.
