She comes alive this time of year,frosty faced ice queen.
Aww we mustve grown up around the same time, there wasn't any competition or InternetGod yea I was just saying this to my son earlier about advent calendars but he just gives me one if those looks , like I used to say in my mum’s earshot ,”Dont mention the war”. I never had a chocolate in mine either! Im so glad mine are grown up now as Christmas Eve boxes wasn’t a thing then. Thank god as I struggled to buy them Christmas Day pressies at times. Everything is so over the top now. I have lovely fond memories of Christmases past and none of them are about money. Hot chocolate, coal fires and Val Doonagon in his cardi on a rocking chair and my Girls World heed !!christ I’m a right auld bastard now
but we had great times and lovely memories. My Mum loved Val Doonican 
We didn't get presents very often unless it was for birthday or Christmas and appreciated everything we received and the only photo was probably a family one with me in my long party dress 
(I'm feeling old now) Good times .. Sophie's memories will be how stressed she was making everything look perfect for Instagram 
. That’s even gone from just the elf itself to this tit. What’s next?? Where do we go from here?
They’ll be using ma as a babysitter for ‘work purposes’ so they can still see her won’t they!
She's like a shite ventriloquist
What an absolute twit
One of my friends has done similar with the Elf !! I'm starting to feel inadequate just plonking ours on the shelf. I'm spending the day mostly off social media and over here with you nusty lot!I wasn’t going to come back on today as I just can’t cope with her horrific showing off, pouting and preening, ostentatiousness and severe lack of reading the room. When I saw it this morning I actually felt sick. My tummy did knots. But I’ve been reading about memories and I can’t believe in this day and age how much it changes each year as everyone tries to one up each other. When I was little it was pictures in an advent with the nativity on 24th. The calendar would get reused the following year. Then when my kids were little the chocolate advents came out. Now it’s £80 ones with make up, wax melts, jewellery etc. All I’m seeing is parents on my insta and fb joshing with each other for the best. Was the same at Easter, Halloween, bonfire night. I do blame the likes of hinch and LQOC et al. I mean, changing your decor with the seasons? Some folk can’t buy food you goons
And then there’s elf
Take away his face fuzz, add a school uniform and there's Jamie straight out of high school.....The fanny!
All influencers should be held accountable, children and teenagers should be taught about social media marketing at school so they can understand that what they are being shown is not real. It’s Damaging!I wasn’t going to come back on today as I just can’t cope with her horrific showing off, pouting and preening, ostentatiousness and severe lack of reading the room.

Oh i had a long dress too, bought in Binns , it was a branch of House of Fraser. Must of been in the sale. Mind my wee maw putting rollers in my hair and this frock for a Christmas party!Aww we mustve grown up around the same time, there wasn't any competition or Internet
I looked like a blonde Daphne Broon 
I remember how nylon it was, i could of started a small fire in yon thing .
I'm creased at this!
Exactly this, no child can remember what they got for Xmas. They might remember a special present (I remember my first My Little PonyPlease dont get upset and think you havent done much for your kids just because you havent dont what people on the gram have done.
Parents do it to make themselves look good, trust me, kids dont remember any of this tit!
Ask any adult what they did on december 1st when they were 5 and they wont have a clue.
I used to get my kids xmas pjs to open on xmas eve, did it since they were born, none of them really remember itbut they do remember walking/driving round looking at everyones xmas lights and decorations
I know a few people are saying her getting ronnie a truck and cars every day is a good idea BUT £15 might not be a lot if you only have one kid but what about parents that have 4 or 5 or 6 kidsThats a lot of money to be spending right before christmas
) but other than that its the excitement of the lights, Father Christmas and them having your undivided attention.Aww Ole Val doonican... The Two Ronnie’s (not Hinchliffe!) and top of the pops Xmas day special.. them were the daysGod yea I was just saying this to my son earlier about advent calendars but he just gives me one if those looks , like I used to say in my mum’s earshot ,”Dont mention the war”.
