Well, only 2 sleeps to go until the fat,
jolly man with a white beard, wearing a red suit appears! This rocky road is
perfect for Christmas and also as a gift during the festive season. Just place
some coloured tissue paper into a box, pop on the lid, wrap with gorgeous
ribbon and a tag.
Wherever you are in the world, whether your
Christmas is chilly and snowy or sunny and balmy – have a great one.
Merry Christmas and see you in 2012!
