A Commercial Christmas

Post by John Naylor »

Was summoned into a Laura Ashley store this afternoon and was making suitable noises and trying to look interested when I spotted this:[frame]Image[/frame]
Wonder if they do them with headlamp brows?

Ok so not a Traveller but just Google Morris Minor Cushion - there are quite a few designs around and some don't require a small mortgage to buy either.

and if you know anyone who can do cross stitch...
http://www.stitchtastic.com/product/mor ... h-kit.aspx - I've done this many times - it's not hard to change the colours .

I always find christmas a bit commercial as i grew up around shops, I tend to buy all year round for friends and family and avoid the mad rush, so i agree with waiting for the sales and and putting things away, last year B+Q were selling commercial sized christmas lights for £50 - £100 and after christmas i got them for £3 - £15. maybe i am a bit humbug :o

Thanks to the TV adverts, I'm usually fed up with Christmas by the middle of October. Maybe it should be re-named the "Mid-Winter Festival of Consumerism"....... :D

Humbug!
