For those whose kids (and big adult kids as well) love aleksandr the meerkat from the ads.
Harrods have got the exclusive rights to this toy this year. They have just had there press release this morning.
The toy is about 30cm high with a price tag of £19.95 (with a donation going to london zoo).
you need to call harrods store toy dept and they will take your name and phone number and call you back on dec 1st to arrange payment and delivery.
Be warned the postage is steep!!! i was charged £12 for postage oouuchhh
you can see a piccy of it here
