Wonderful Graham, thank you for the daily joy!
The woman is nice, I like the detail in green, underwear matching the dress.

Graham is leading us on an Advent-ure  :rudy: :hatoff:

You're unstoppable, Macruran. You and Graham and your unstoppunble contest. I love it.  ;D

Ismene, if you do Amazon, it's available there. <*)

They must have sold out because it now says in stock Dec. 20, which makes it more of an Epiphany calendar.  :lol:

At that moment the ship suddenly stopped rocking and swaying, the engine pitch settled down to a gentle hum. 'Hey Ford.' said Zaphod, 'that sounds good. Have you worked out the controls on this boat?' 'No,' said Ford, 'I just stopped fiddling with them.' (With thanks to Douglas Adams)

You are too kind Macky.

No, really you are TOO kind. That was a rubbish pun I perpetrated, you really shouldn't encourage efforts that are so pathetic.
Or puny.

I think its really good they included a real building to display all the advent calendar bits on, instead of the usual cardboard creation, which is often just so.... disposable! But the building does bump the price up a bit. Luckily I got this as a birthday present back in the summer from my GLW (Mrs. GrahamB as they would have called her in my parents' generation), so I have had chance to take photos in plenty of time!

Funny coincidence: I got hold of a 20% reduction code for the Belgian webshop and I treated myself to a big order of these system WHY?! buildings, including this very calendar.

The building looks really cute, thanks for the crisp pictures!

The mirror (not the sticker) is the only unique part



She now at least has somewhere to sit - and somthing to watch (even if it is her own reflection).
