    There are some in superdrug. Personally I am sick of seeing cinderella/mickey mouse christmas cards where is the true meaning of christmas
  • I buy mine from the Leprosy mission. They also do advent calenders with the nativity scene on them and relevent pictures inside the windows.

    I usually buy them online and often take advantage of their sale in January and in the summer to stock up.

    :rotfl:Sorry, but atheist Christmas cards, as an atheist you and fellow atheists surely would not celebrate the mass of Christ!!

    Oh come now. Christmas isn't about Christ for the vast majority of the country and hasn't been for decades! It's about getting the family together, having fun and stuffing yourself! You can do that whether you believe in the mighty sky father or not - live and let live eh?

    Since when did 'Christ' have anything to do with Christmas anymore?

    Or are all the cars jamming the local dual carriageway, parked indisciminately on the central reservation queueing to get into Asda or to make a donation to restore the boarded up church?

    I suspect the former.

    It's all about greed and over-indulgence and sloth.

    hey, we're in the same boat! every year i make sure that the christmas card i send has the nativity on it or at least 3 kings. plus Im not very keen of writing the shortcut word of CHRISTmas. anyway, i found one the other day at clintons £3/pack of 12 cards. classic design...


    You see - that just proves to me what a tightwad I've actually become over the past few years. It didn't even occur to me to suggest Clintons. I've not been in there for about 5 years (after I once baulked at the price of a Christening card).

    Seriously I blame this site.
