Don't buy your pet a Christmas present!









Ps. they don't know it's Christmas!!!!!!!!

Spend what you would have on the kids and grandkids.
Your pets would prefer the turkey anyway !

Well my old cat Harley doesn't know ( but he's not all there, bless him) but told Pebbles cat it's Christmas soon and that mum is going to buy her a new blingy collar, and I know she knew, she's so clever :cat:
 
When it's all over, keep your tree baubles in egg boxes and wrap fairy lights round a plastic coat hanger or cardboard inner of tin foil

Pillow case instead of stocking get some plain white ones and get children to draw Christmassy things on them to they can add to it every year
 
Get your Yorkshire puds in early... they always seem to be sold out when I want to buy them, or there are just a few packets left in the freezer that are ripped to shreds!
 
Buy as many gifts for pets as possible and for those in need ..
Sometimes just a tin of food in a charity box for an anamial charity ..
Let them know it's Christmas to ... X
 
Do what they did in the schools in the seventies, put your veg on now, to make sure it's cooked for Christmas
 
Keep your Christmas cards from the year before so you know who sent one back.
 
I have been thinking how to make a fruit punch .. I am going to ...
Use the no added sugar orange juice with water .. Simmer with cinnamon sticks slices of lemon and ginger etc ..
I don't want to miss out ..
 
Alcohol punch
1 litre fresh orange juice
1 can of orange tango
1 bottle of Strongbow cider
1 bottle of Reisling
1 Orange thinly sliced

Non alcohol
1 litre of ginger ale
1 litre of pure of apple juice
2 table spoons of grenadine
Couple of dashes of lime
Ice
You can add a bottle of white grape Shloer to make a slightly different flavour
