LoveLeonardCohen · 13/05/2011 10:12

There's a shop near me that sells stuff like this, like the most random, awful, tacky figurines that are really really expensive. People do buy this stuff though

I think I've just found my step dads Christmas Present Grin Thanks

bupcakesandcunting · 13/05/2011 10:13

Not I, squeaky. Not I. I would chuck myself in the river with my pockets weighted down with said ornaments if I ever reached such a low.

bupcakesandcunting · 13/05/2011 10:22

Ah, thanks bupcakes. That's DH's birthday present sorted. Simples.

psisedriteoff · 13/05/2011 10:24

Yadnbu they are nasty

squeakytoy · 13/05/2011 10:24

I want some of the nodding meerkats for the garden, but my dog would savage them.

signet · 13/05/2011 10:26

That's just the sort of thing my mother would buy. Seriously!

A meerkat could never hold a pistol. They don't have thumbs

The garden ornament that. Really annoys me is the dogs arse one. Usually with a perfectly sculpted bum hole. Class.

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 13/05/2011 10:31

Ooh, random punctuation. Nice.

DorisDoesntDance · 13/05/2011 10:32

Hello! Coo-ee! Just popped by to let you know that I do indeed have the lovely ornaments and they are such a charm in my garden.

Simply divine.

IreneHeron · 13/05/2011 10:33

Producing that shit is a waste of the world's natural resources, grim!

Quenelle · 13/05/2011 10:33

Oh but they're hilarious. Cos, you know, meerkats are hilarious. They say 'simples' and stuff like that.

memphis83 · 13/05/2011 10:35

Oh dear oh dear shocking!!! My mums friend bought her daughter about £200 of meercat tat for xmas I really felt for the poor woman, I bet this will be her housewarming gift in a few weeks!!!

PaperView · 13/05/2011 10:42

Compare the meerkat has a lot to answer for Hmm

shouldnotbehere · 13/05/2011 10:46

My DH's gran has bought us a tacky squirrel ornament as a present, it is in the vegetable garden, rather than flower beds.

FoxyRevenger · 13/05/2011 10:48

What the fuck is it with grown adults and bloody meerkats?

Last summer we went to Scarborough for an afternoon and it was like a bloody meerkat colony had invaded.

Just whywhywhywhywhy?????

Thingumy · 13/05/2011 10:48

Whats the obsession with meerkat tat?

I think people who buy that shit also wear sov rings and have lace curtains.

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 13/05/2011 10:49

My best wedding present can out tack all of this. It was two plastic clear figures waltzing, stood upon a black box which shone multicoloured lights up through it. It was a foot high and played 'The Blue Danube'.
