I wonder if today’s kids have the same thrill of opening advent calendar doors that I did. Would it be the angel? The parcel with a ribbon? The rocking horse? Could you manage not to lift just the edge of the 24th’s double doors with your fingernail to steal a look? I was beside myself when I got a calendar with glitter. It was such a magical time. Now it’s all Disney chocolate shapes and not a manger in sight. It can’t be the same.
My wife asked me if I wanted a calender this year. I said no until she said she had found one with a whisky in each door.....she then told me it was £120, stuff that just get me a great whisky and I will sort my own each night I said...
Don't be tempted by the pork scratching one...its awful...all different flavored..pork scratchings should taste of pork scratchings...not bloody maple syrup
