Whatto! Pepys...
Xmas is traditionally a time for consumption.
It's what baby Jesus would have wanted.
It's a time for buying unusual gifts for those we love.
'Presents' are obviously things that people will find useful...
... so this blog is about 'Gifts'
- those things we buy that are fun to spend our hard earned money on
but which serve no real purpose in anyone's life other than to brighten up their day.
A bit like giving Frankincense to a baby!
Something like....
...a years subscription to the provocatively mouldable 'Plasticine' Magazine...
or
maybe you'd prefer a nice LP record for the barking mad?
or
you could give your loved one something that will get them putting their thinking hat on?
or
for the budding Naturalist...
a nice piece of Battenborough cake?
or perhaps...
a nice night out with a Celebrity?
(This one's Virgin on the ridiculous)
or
you could fork out for an unusual seafood meal?
(Welcome to the world of the deliciously pointy Caecilian!)
or
for the person who likes to take care of themselves...
...some nice hair conditioner?
or
for that special person in your life
who is blessed with a wonderfully dry sense of humour
or
you could take them out to the cinema to enjoy a lovely film?
Can you tell what it is yet?
Yes...
it's a chick flick!
or
maybe you know someone
who regularly enjoys a good hearty breakfast?
Lady Jacqueline has already asked me to help her identify my ideal Xmas 'Gift'
and I have to admit that this year
I'm finding it particularly difficult to choose!
I find myself oscillating wildly between my desire to have...
.... a night out with Lady Gaga...
and
my desire for
an unbiased media?
Decisions! Decisions!
Tallyho!
Best Wishes - Lord Noel
