You may know where to pick up a partridge or even a pear tree but have you ever wondered how much it would cost you if you gave your true love everything on the list of the festive song The Twelve Days of Christmas.
Sending all the gifts in the Christmas carol means your lover would end up receiving 364 presents in total.
You might expect five gold rings to set you back a bit, but unsurprisingly seven swimming swans are not cheap to purchase either.
Peers can claim up to £300 for a day’s attendance at the House of Lords, so assuming they are offering their leaping services for free, to hire 10 Lords would cost £3,000 a day.
If you have treated your partner to 364 gifts this Christmas we sincerely hope you got some group discounts.
