OK, it's only 9th September but the Christmas brochures are coming through the letterboxes... and there's a Morris Minor pressie idea in the Dogalogue (Guide Dogs for the Blind - well, they can't call it a catalogue, can they?) one.
They have a 1,000 piece jigsaw called 'Summer Fete' which has a blue Traveller in it.
The online catalogue is at www.dogalogue.com, the jigsaw is at

the only plesure i get from christmas is watching my grandchildren opening there presents , if it was up to me i would ban it its just an excuse to spend money oftens borrowed credit cards. drink as much as possible, we spend only what we can payfore and certanly no booze here. yes i probably am a miserable old b,,,,r but i wont be in dept or have a hangover and yes we will have a good christmas. and a happy one to you all,,grandad

I don't need an excuse to drink.......

I know what you mean though, its all a big commercialised load of balls (or should that be baubles? )
