Now this is odd, My kids had MUSHROOMS in theirs today !! Lidl !

An actual mushroom or a picture of a mushroom? If it was an actual mushroom then that's the weirdest calender I've ever heard of.

If it was just a picture of a mushroom - that's what you get for buying the Super Mario Bros Advent Calender. Yoshi tomorrow!

[Boboff]

Twas a chocolate one, or pair of mushromee.

[Andy B]

Ah there you have it then. Does it not say in the bible "And low Jesus came down from the mountain with 2 carved tablets, a phad thai chicken, a portion of special fried rice and some breaded mushrooms for Edgar who only wanted something light"

You obviously have the chocolate representation of Edgars mushrooms which symbolise not wanting to eat too much cos you had too much beer.

Deeply symbolic is that.

What about my Scarf clad Penguin?

[Andy B]

A well Jesus was a Jew and jewish people have those scarf thingy's with a certain number of tassels on them so that symbolises Jesus's heriatage and the penguin is....um....umm......ah yes a penguin is like a really small nun so it's obviously making reference to how even the most devout of Jesus's followers have to pay homage to his own background.

Ah yes the scarf clad pengun of Xmas, you don't see to many of them about these days.

I wasn't aware I'd sent you anything?

Sorry, too easy.

[S4B]

Aww, sorry Bonanzoid, there is someone lovelier than you!

[Andy B]

Well I was gonna PM you for an address but since someone else has got you one I shan't bother.....so there!

[S4B]

Aww Andy, you can never have too many advent calendars.

[Andy B]

Yeah but by the time I've found one suitable and wrapped it and written the address and got the correct postage and paid for it and posted it it'll be nearly xmas anyway so there's no point now. I'll send you a facebook advent calendar if you like?

[S4B]

That'll be just as good. Thank you Andy

Yeah, write to George Bush:

"Dear Dubya

I know you have a lot of things on your mind at the moment, what with Iraq and all, but I have an altogether more pressing issue. Why are there no vegan advent calendars?

Yours

Everyone seems to have chocolate calendars these days, I never had chocolate calendars when I was a kid, I just had one with pictures.

[S4B]

Well I think it'd give him something to think about that his brain could probably handle!

I only had them with pictures too Topher, I'm not actually that fond of sweet stuff but I'm enjoying my daily chocolates now purely because I never had one when I was a kid I think.

i really do miss the simple things.

i just made my holiday cards- is it sick that they feature my guinea pig?

Last Christmas i made my mother a calendar featuring pictures of her Siamese Cat 'Tao'. i gave it to her Christmas day. Tao died a week later. Bless her.

[Yudster]

Be careful who you feature in this year's calendar then Zoot........
