No i don't have anything better to do. Yes I am childish.

That said me and my best friend have a long running game where we like to prank each other. Very small scale stuff. Most recently this has taken the form of sending each other postcards from wherever we are with daft messages on them.

It started when i went on holiday and sent her a postcard as promised. Then she went away and forgot to send me one. So the next time i was away (not anywhere vaguely exciting) i sent her a narky one bemoaning my lack of postcards. Then she bombarded me with daft cards saying how much she loved me and was my bestest ever friend.

Now I'm stuck. What can I do or send her.....

I know mn is full of evil geniuses (genii?)...please help me Grin

Yes Owl, it is Janet and Roy. My very favourite part of Christmas. I sent loads last year! Grin

clean next time i'm at her house I will be sure to try and nick something. She doesn't have any gnomes but she does have a cat. That might work!

I am unaware of this couple Owl but they are very welcome to get in on the action.

Both excellent ideas.

Rose I'm on a website right now choosing which card to add her lovely mush to.

Who is the MN imaginary Christmas card couple? Roy and Janet? I'm sure they have holidays.

Rememeber years ago Coronation Street had a story line where a Gnome was stolen from Mavis' garden.
The Gnome then sent postcards saying it had gone on holiday and was having a wonderful time lol.

I very nearly did this at Xmas when my sister kept putting photos on facebook of the reindeer she had bought and it was in her front garden,so tempting but I wasn't sure that she would see the funny side.

Do you have a lot of photos of her? Turn them into postcards and send them to someone else in her house (DH? DP? Mum?) all of them saying something from her to them....

All of them will freak out.
