This year I have decided not to buy regular presents for the family, socks, Triss Lotto, whiskey and all the other crap that people give each other.

There is nothing more miserable than trying to smile when you receive a knitted mobile phone cover with the face of Paris Hilton on it. All of this rubbish goes into drawers and cupboards and never gets used. The only people who enjoy this orgy of rubbish are the tax people who get a 25% cut for moms.

So to try and do something useful I am going to give a goat to Zambian families on behalf of the relatives.

Go into this link and see how you can, if you wish give something nicer and more useful than an egg timer in the shape of a frog on a bicycle.

Because I am rather hopeless at the technology I am not sure that you can click on the link above but it is well worth the effort.

Have a good weekend of gift shopping.

Since you haven't had time for Ugly Friday, I thought I'd share my "Ugly Day before Christmas". http://sisterrose.blogg.se

A related question, have you heard of http://www.pinkflamingoshop.com? :) hehe The scary thing is, when I googled it, I realized they're not unique...

A great idea. I got a little brochure from www.webaidshop.se, they have almost the same concept.

Happy new year to you 4 (dogs included :-))
