One thing about Christmas that I'm not sure if I like or not is the sheer amount of Christmas catalogues that spring up. Every shop has them, and most of them seem to end up in my house. After a quick check of the living room I now have two different Argos catalogues, two different Sainsbury's catalogues, a WHSmith one, a Hawkin's Bazaar one, one from the Original Gift Company, a Waterstone's one, Hobbycraft, Tesco, Biblelands and a Woolworths Catalogue all on the desk in front of me. That's too many products!
The Hawkin's Bazaar is my favourite. It's one of these Gadget-type-shops with something for everyone.
SEE! drinking glasses! Basically a big straw that you wear on your face like glasses making you look like a proper twat!
THRILL! at the Bedlam cube! Once you take the pieces out of the box you'll never get them back in! There are 19,186 possible solutions, so it should be easy! (It's not, I speak from experience.)
HEAR! the annoying git on Christmas day that gets given a Guinness Book Of World Records and sits there all day quoting bits at you!
FEEL! Stickle Bricks! Amazing toys from about 20 years ago! No sarcasm when I say they rock!
They also have smoking mittens; a pair of gloves with a hole to pop your ciggie in to. They would have been very useful to me a few years ago after I managed to set one of my gloves on fire by having a sly puff.
The other magazines aren't as interesting. Mostly books, toys and food.
NB; I stole the format from another blog that I follow. All credit should go to Mr. Croshaw.
