    mines with yours in the recycling.
    for a company thats gives the image of being eco organic pc green, why send out useless rubbish that ends up in the bin with out any real purpose?if i knew what it was i wouldnt have asked for it and saved the whole process of getting it to my door, including making the postie walk up my drive,to deliver it as it was the only post for the day! sorry to sound ungrateful, but was just a little surprised by its lack of quality and imagination, ill know next year!

    It's a bit of fun but if it is cut badly so it doesnt actually stand up like it's meant to, sadly will have to go in the recycling...

    A nice litttle bit of seasonal fun - okay maybe not an actual pressie but I liked mine and children will really like it.

    I'm giving mine to the children next door with a little bit of blue tak or similar (so they can chop & change) to make for their mum. They will get a bit of fun making it but will also be really pleased they have made a surprise for her and will be pleased & even excited with their secret until they give it to her (you know what children are like) - no doubt she will keep it and show it to people infront of them, so a lot of people will get a lot of enjoyment out of it. I'm sure they will get the giggles at seeing & using the bikini and to them it will make their secret even more fun waiting to see her face when she finds a snowman in a bikini!!!!!

    Glad to see they used 100% recycled card.

    Maybe more adults who receive and who don't want it, could give it to someone like irisrose did instead of just throwing it out - children love things like this & love giving things they have made themselves to people - they could use it for their teacher, baby sitter etc., sibling .... anyone!!!

    I would think it was great if a child made one for me.
  • Mine arrived today, its sitting on my desk at the moment:)

    In a bikini? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm beginning to want to do mine myself instead of giving it away - I want to see the mittens on the ends of the stick arms!!!!! & I like they have given the valient trudging little robin a perky robin friend - hooray!


    and have just thought for those giving to children, they (the children!) can draw or colour in alternative faces & designs etc. on the back of the printed ones - noticed this because looking at from the back, the cap'n' coal teeth are a perfect Santa beard, the scarf a tee shirt or top, the pipe an alternative arm or walking stick (or Christmas candy!), the beard a cloud, the bikini a mask and the hat, a tortoise!!!!! :T:T:T

    Use blue tak not glue!!!!!!!

    Maybe I should get out more!!!!!!????? (or grow up) :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
