The UK Babe Channels Forum

Anyway, I had a look at a few of those wish lists and noticed that -- at the time -- there was an option that allowed you to view the whole wishlist in a table convenient for printing. This also meant that it was handily formatted for cutting and pasting into a spreadsheet. Being a bit of a math nerd, I got curious to see if there was any truth in the oft-repeated babeshow assertion that wishlists are only meant to make life easier for guys that were bound to give them gifts anyway (i.e. kind of like a wedding registry).

Anyway, it took a couple of hours, but I collected a sample of 32 girls' wishlists -- No, I had nothing better to do that night!!


I then ranked them according to a number of factors: number of ITEMS on the list; HIGHEST value item; AVERAGE value of the wishlist; TOTAL value; and value of the MEDIAN item.

From that, I created a composite figure, which I call my Babeshow Babe Greed Index (BBGI). Without going into it all in minute detail, here are the main results.

First the good news: here are the girls did show a modicum of self-restraint, with wishlists that genuinely did look to be full of trinkets and what could arguably be described as 'tools of the trade'. Based on my sample:

HALL OF FAME (i.e. the lowest BBGI)

1. Gemma Jane
2. Kandi Kay
3. Priya Young
4. Rachel T
5. Hannah Claydon

Congratulations, girls. You are a credit to your profession. Also ... love the boobs!

Now the naughty ones...

HALL OF SHAME (i.e. the highest scores on the BBGI)

1. Anastasia Harris
2. Scarlet Bouvier
3. Gemma Hiles
4. Electra Morgan
5. Mikayla Bayliss

Interesting to note that these are mostly dayshow girls and that the top three are all S66. The top two, in fact, practically blew the scale for the rest of the sample.

(n.b. I did, however, give one girl in the middle of the scale the benefit of the doubt on a £52,000 Louis Vuitton handbag. I assumed that EITHER that was an Amazon misprint OR she put it on there ironically, not believing that anyone would ever actually buy it. Suffice to say, that if she seriously expects someone to buy that for her, then she would go to number 1 with a bullet!)

The other 22 babes fell somewhere in between.

Absolutely no point to this post, other than to prove that there actually have been nights in the past 6 months when a spreadsheet was more interesting to me than what was happening on the channels

Can we have an updated league table please?

What do HMRC have to say about wishlist gifts?

Doubt there's much they can do if it is gifts from fans. If it's gifts from their employer then that's different, there's a benefit and we're talking tax and NICs being payable. Most of them are probably classed as self employed anyway I'd imagine.

Nothing, they're gifts. Unless of course you fancy being taxed on the Hai Karate Gift Set you got at Christmas

Blimey, she could get a sundial for less money than that. But I suppose it wouldn't be a Gucci sundial.

Some people might think a sundial wouldn't be a terrible lot of use in Newcastle, but I suppose you can get electric ones these days

^i'm sure there must be an app for that!

edit: i was only joking but here you go: http://sundialsoc.org.uk/old/apps.php

Yes gifts aren't taxable. Which is just as well, otherwise some newly married couples would face enormous tax bills on their wedding gifts.

She doesn't appear to spend much time there, judging from pictures, which may be just as well if she wants to go round with a £650 watch on her arm.
