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

Rich Your Beaker is beautiful (why does that sound so wrong?)
Would she like to be chief bridescatmaid?

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 21/12/2017 12:47

Xmas GrinXmas Grin never have I seen a more beautiful bride to be. The tiara-funnel is so 2018, I can just see Meghan wearing a diamond encrusted funnel on the big day!

Xmas Grin don't worry Beaker, I will set about using all of my calendar goodies to make the invites asap!

Day 21 Xmas Shock brings us an eyeliner.

It's GLITTER-FREE?!?!

What the bloody hell do they think I'm supposed to do with that? I'm not leaving the house with plain black eyeliner like some sort of stable adult. It's gold glitter glue all the way!

Rich message from Misty cat: Keep your paws off my fiancé, you glittery trollop Xmas Grin

Surely the 2nd funnel will appear on the 25th?what else would you ever want for Christmas, than a 2nd mini funnel? Xmas Grin

ARichVernacular · 20/12/2017 21:15

The thread that keeps on giving Grin I have nothing to add other than adoration of Ken.

HOF induced funnel anxiety. Grin

Door 20 can now be an important reference point for any Mumsnetters wondering how to tell if they're having a pre labour show.
Probably best to keep it closed for now though. I'm feeling a bit queasy.

ThePinkPanter · 20/12/2017 20:06

I'm beginning to feel a bit panicky that the second funnel hasn't appeared yet :(

Cheeseandcucumber · 20/12/2017 19:30

Grin thanks for that description, ColourCature. I'll just be closing that door over now Grin

Xmas GrinXmas Grin of course it's blood! First comes the body parts, next the blood and on the 24th the police will arrive at my door and I'll be framed for murder courtesy of my cat/HOF.

Xmas Grin Kisty!! YES!!

It's about time Ken settled down, hopefully it'll help him drop his world domination bad boy image. He'll have to if he's to succeed in his campaign to become PM.

ILostIt, I bet they sourced the colour when a HoF product analyst went into spontaneous labour at seeing the idea behind this magnificent piece of work! Grin

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 20/12/2017 18:43

We can all blow confetti out of Cheese's funnels!

*that wasn't meant to sound as weird as it does. Confused

I'm seeing Ken and Misty (Kisty?) in Hello (sponsored by HOF, all products courtesy of ColourCature).

sugarlost · 20/12/2017 18:25

Will Ken & Misty get married??? HOF Sadvent could create a marriage...imagine the press coverage? They could marry on the same day as Harry and Meghan and Meghan could use all the Sadvent products for makeup which would save a lot of money and again press coverage would be fab for Cheese.... imagine all the freebies she would be sent to blog about and the Royal circles Ken would enter to help with his world domination plan !!!

ElephantsandTigers · 20/12/2017 17:47

TracyB - no, just pieces of chocolates with pictures on. Quite nice chocolate to be fair.

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 20/12/2017 17:40

Elephants intrigued. Are you getting mini pots of marmalade behind the doors?

mrssmiling · 20/12/2017 17:33

Have really enjoyed this thread....however, having had a rotten experience with HoF delivery and their abysmal customer service, can't help feeling that HoF's general failure to delight their customers is a disgrace. Looking at their Facebook page and other threads, it seems that lots of other people feel the same way. I will not use them again.

ElephantsandTigers · 20/12/2017 17:21

This thread I should fabulous!

I have a Paddington Bear calendar. Opened day 6 today. Not sure I've got the hang of AC. Bit like HOF.
