So it arrived damaged. Never mind, I thought, it's what's inside that counts...

Vanishing cream Xmas Grin

Goodwill2Mandatorymongoosekind · 23/12/2017 05:35

You are being greedy. You got two gifts on 10/12 (or spider day as that date should now be known)

Nothing day makes you break even.

665TheNeighbourOfTheBeast · 22/12/2017 22:57

Perhaps it was vanishing cream? And it leaked...
Sigh..I've been waiting so long to make that joke! At last, I can die happy.

sugarlost · 22/12/2017 22:40

Edwin is gorgeous too!

I think all cat wedding invite requests (with a picture) should be honoured unless Ken has specific criteria regarding guests....

sugarlost · 22/12/2017 22:35

Hedwig is gorgeous ...I’m assuming Ken is still sleeping like his furry fan clubXmas Sad

Good to know Santa is still alive and delivering cheese!

I’m worried that Ken may be stealing the glittery shittery as another poster insinuated.....especially as Cheese mentioned he wasn’t to be trusted previously (I haven’t forgotten).

I’m tired and hoping Sadvent will something shiney tomorrow..

I want a cat too!

Annelind · 22/12/2017 22:28

I discovered this thread a couple of hours ago. I am in awe of the sadvent calendar, cheese, the other posters and the cats. My God, the cats!

Please may Edwin have a wedding invititation? Xmas Blush

Nothing?!
This may be the best thing in the calendar but I’m outraged by this. You deserve 1/24 of your money back

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 22/12/2017 20:24

It's great that Mr Cheese is getting involved with the shitness. I'm disappointed his rummaging didn't produce another drug trumpet funnel but a valiant effort nonetheless.

Sorry Ken is feeling jaded tonight. Celebrity cats eh? Such divas Xmas Wink

Emptiness?? You mean 'negative space' Xmas Grin

Mr Grey & Hedwig as an acrobatic double act would be fantastic!

DH had a rummage around the back of the calendar (not a euphemism) and pulled out two things we've already opened that must have slipped back there. I assumed Ken had stolen them.

So it looks like door 22 is genuinely empty Xmas Grin

I don't think they could top the shitter and funnel so emptiness is probably the only way forward.

Although I would have loved to have seen their eyeshadow, I bet it's really special. I imagine it's lumpy and stings.

Xmas Grin don't worry, sugar, Santa is most definitely real and Ken will be along soon once he's recovered from his catnip comedown.

Hedwig is almost as athletic as my cat, guns - maybe they could do a double act for the wedding.

Hedwig waiting patiently for her wedding invite.

Nothing? Sweet F. A?
This really is the calendar of disappointment and broken dreams. Grin
I love the way you're still laughing after 21 doors of shite and an empty door.
At least you have Ken.

ToucheEcat · 22/12/2017 18:11

I think 3 empty windows on 22/23/24 December is just the minimalist perfection to add to the calendar's shitness. Masterful, HOF. Masterful.

I can’t even type FFS right

glotter tray Xmas Grin

iwouldgoouttonight · 22/12/2017 17:51

Are you sure day 22 isn't a clear perspex funnel? Or a teeny tiny funnel invisible to the naked eye.

What's likely happened is Ken is jealous of the quality HoF goodies and has stolen the contents of the last few doors. Have you checked his glitter tray?

laudanum · 22/12/2017 17:44

Mum says the tiny funnel is for filling atomisers with perfume, apparently. I haven't read all the responses so someone else probably already said that.

sugarlost · 22/12/2017 17:14

Nothing....I think I need to lie down as this is too much to take in when we’re presented with nothing...I actually could cry...HOF do you see what your putting us through...no shittery...how are we supposed to carry on...FFS!!!

Where’s Ken, Misty and the wedding cat groupies?
I think I need pictures to recover from the shock of a nothing day....next you’ll be telling me Santa doesn’t exist...it really is too much and on a Friday too...truly shocking!

Cheese I hope your ok? The effort you have to put in to pull open those doors and the anticipation and to end up with N/A....who is the director of HOF...heads should roll!

ArchchancellorsHat · 22/12/2017 16:10

Just when you thought they couldn't get any better - it turned out they agreed so didn't even bother trying. Well played, HOF, well played.

Mr Grey would love to perform at the wedding, or indeed anywhere at all so long as there's something to destroy or chew an audience.

In the YouTube video one of the windows seemed to be empty but the presenter then found a second set of crappy stickers slipped down in the casing.

Are you missing one of your sets of artistic stickers? Possibly burglers?

PaddingtonBearHardSprouts · 22/12/2017 12:19

I watched the video, today was a brown eyeshadow. Maybe HoF didn't want to disappoint with two normal products in a row. The girl in the video used it as a bronzer with the awful brush as she was trying to use all the products and her eyes were already covered in glittery shit

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 22/12/2017 12:05
Confused

Nothing at all?

No stickers, no shittery?

Not even the rest of the spider?
