Chiffy Holiday shopping

I love shopping by catalog! I snip pictures out and attach them to the refrigerator door. Then after a while I take them down and start putting up new ones. All the fun of shopping and none of the expense!

Just took these off the fridge, and thought I’d share.



For our Undisputed–




Where everybody knows your name!

Whether it’s your bar area, a rec room, or even a well-appointed garage, extend a warm, personalized Irish welcome to guests and “regulars” alike with this handsome Pub Sign!

Appointing you as the current proprietor (and bouncer!) of the irish pub, with any name appearing across the top.

Optional nameboard sign, which hangs below, can be personalized with any name(s) (“Barkeep & Bouncer” title as shown, please note will have (s) added if two names are listed). Nameboard sold separately below.

Our turn-of-the-century reproduction Pub Sign features solid wood construction and old-fashioned details give this sign an authentic “Celtic” air.

For Annie McQ and Cowtime

Gift includes a box of Free Time for sewing.




For Nano–
Session mates who who are ego-free and who always play in tune!

I looked and looked, but I couldn’t find one with a bodhrán. Sorry Nano, I tried…

For Redwolf-



For Deej
Several of the ladies in the back of the boat are friends of mine from way back. Last time I talked to them they were complaining about how boring life has been since their pet sea serpent died :frowning:

Since they seem to like 'em surly, I gave them Deej’s address and phone number. In the next week or so they’ll show up with warm holiday greetings for him. :wink: :wink:


For Gonzo, Lambie, Cynth, and other piratical-types–

for Diane

For Cranberry

I know you feel uncomfortable receiving gifts, but would you like to come for tea?


For Denny




could get expensive to do this properly though, we need billions and billions

Back of the boat, eh? Why am I so not surprised? :really:

You are truly a Santa’s Helper. Great choices!

Ho, Ho, Ho!

(where’s the Christmas smiley?)

Oh, by the way, my apologies to the folks I missed-- :blush:

I was trying to find really nice pens to inspire Emline and Izzy as they did their writing, but haven’t found just the right ones yet!

Wow! Thanks! The gift of time is perfect!

Caroluna:

How about this for the pirate people:

(Shhh! I already bought this for my daughter for Christmas! She loves Captain Jack Sparrow!)

Most excellent! Free Time!! Now, if you could just point me to the option for nobody getting sick, I’d get a lot more done.

Thanky much, Caroluna! And a Very Merry ChristmaKwanzannukah to all!

Finally! Good birds.

I can stop collecting feathers for that better bird I was going to make to replace the naughty ones I have.

I’ve seen that amulet before, but never noticed how the back part of it looks a lot like…moth wings! Cool :sunglasses:

Thank you! I’m wearing it now. :smiley:

For Emline and Izzarina–
Santa’s Fleecy Helper pointed me to these wonderful websites.
Ladies, there’s too many beauties to choose from-- so I hope you don’t mind getting gift certificates :wink:


And ink in a rainbow of colors!

Actually I used to party with the entire Viking Women’s Boating Team. Fun bunch of girls. Many’s the night we’d go carousing and pillaging. But the ladies in the front of the boat got eaten, sorry…

I wonder who might like this?

“Soup, Soup, Beautiful Sooooooooup.”

Please! This is a nice, soft, fluffy holiday thread!

And here you are with the cold-blooded reptilian humor…
:laughing:

Thats right!

:smiley:



Well, that certainly tortoise a lesson.

Something soft and fuzzy…
for Mutepointe

This was a fuzzy rainbow grateful dead bear that somehow got mutated into a nasty ratfink :boggle: Mutey, I’m so sorry about that!!

I guess the Grateful Dead Bear people did not like me sending so much traffic to their site. :blush: Sorry to them, too. …They certainly have a good sense of humor though. :astonished:

and for Sluder

and Amar

well, maybe not so soft and fuzzy.

And for Aanvil

:stuck_out_tongue:

Gad! Amar’s has fangs!! He’ll love it! :laughing:

for pastorkeith

This gift comes with a coupon redeemable for World Peace!

However-- the coupon is divided up into thousands of teeny-tiny mini-coupons, and you have to turn in one teeny bit every day.

After a while it adds up, though… :slight_smile:
